Things are starting to slow down a bit here. I am slowly but surely starting to get adjusted to being the wife of a military man, and what that all entails and looks like. We have been married for 2 weeks now and it feel A LOT longer, in a good way! I feel like I have been down here in GA for a long time as well. I still have a lot of hard days, in all honesty, but I feel like each day gets a bit easier, for that I am thankful. I am continuing to trust in the Lord's sovereignty in all things, trusting and taking comfort in His promises. Sometimes I get so frustrated by being alone and wonder why He moved me so far away from my family and friends for the next 22 months?? But God is God. He has brought Matt and I together, and knows what is best. He will never leave me or forsake me.
The house is starting to feel a bit more like a home. We have all the wedding gifts opened, washed and put away. Matt has started putting nails in the wall so I can hang pictures, so that it feels more homey. Matt and I on his days off have been running around Augusta like crazy people trying to get me into the Navy paperwork for insurance, but can't do that without a GA license with my new married name. So now I have a GA license! Its weird to see that in my wallet. But I like what the name says =). Then we also today bought some flowers and pots so I can have some flowers to have and try to keep up with, and we also were able to return some wedding duplicate gifts and get store credit, which we used to buy honeymoon clothes!
We have not found a church yet, obviously. We are still "shopping" around. We went to one on Sunday that I really, really enjoyed, but Matt's not quite sure on it. So I need to remember that he leads this relationship, and I need to remember to let him lead. So pray for us in this, that the Lord would make it clear to us on where to settle , and hopefully soon, so that we may have great friends down here to hang out with, and for me, when Matt's at work, someone I can hang out with; and someone to pour into me. It would be much appreciated!
The thing that I am looking forward to the most is Wednesday! We leave on our Honeymoon for DISNEY WORLD!!!! I am so so excited to go. I have never been there before, and have always wanted to go. I am so glad to do this, and share this experience with Matt! Matt even surprised me with a night at a Bed and Breakfast in St. Augustine, FL on our way down, so that we don't have to drive all 7 hours in one day! So So excited! I am excited to go to the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and all the other places! I will be sure to blog ALL about it after we get back and share some pictures of it all!
Thank you all who have been praying for us thus far. I ask that you would continue to pray for us, our marriage, and my adjustment down here. Blessings to all of you.
