YMCA.

I think this video is very fitting as we celebrate my amazing husband getting a job offer! Stuart is going to be the Summer Camp Director at the YMCA in Louisville.

Words cannot express how excited and thankful we are f0r this opportunity! He begins his job in a week so we happily moved our move date up about four days.

Stuart's boss at the Y is married to a Southern Seminary graduate and it has been great to connect with her. She has already been such a friend to us and we haven't even met in person yet!

The job will only last the duration of summer but we are happy one of us has something to get us started. He has several other job interviews lined up this week that could lead to something in the Fall. It has been awesome to see how God has provided for us and we are excited to see what He has in store for us this fall!

Farewell to the Florida Lottery.

Last Wednesday was my last day at the Florida Lottery! I was sad to say goodbye to my co-working friends but was happy I got to say farewell to them in style.

They threw me a sweet goodbye party at work in our conference room and it was great to have a chance to see and chat with everyone. I think the thing I will miss the most is all of our nicknames. I'm pretty sure I have the longest "official" nickname in the office. They most likely had to shorten it to fit on the cake.

We also had a post-work goodbye party in midtown filled with great memories and hilarious stories. I will miss my Lottery Ladies for the quality life chats and good laughs. They got me through a lot and I am so glad that I will be able to keep in touch and see them on my return trips to Tallahassee.

Normally my type A personality would have me a nervous mess leaving a job without another job in waiting, which can only mean that this odd sense of peace is God assuring us we are on the right track. And while I am unemployed, I haven't had much down time over the past few days. I have started packing up our house which required me to run all sorts of errands to find boxes and packing supplies. Needless to say - I am exhausted. But I am also appreciating the freedom to get things done and have been very productive.

We are officially moving two weeks from today. Time is flying. More exciting news to share tomorrow!
