Update before the summer fun begins

Hey to all,

It's been awhile since I have posted or even had the internet access to check the blog. I have enjoyed getting to read some of your recent updates and look forward to seeing what happens this summer. I want to say a big Congrats to Kristi and Ryan on their recent engagement and say that I am honored and so excited about getting to be a part of one of the best days of your life. I am pumped for October and bet that you are even more so :-)

Matt and Court- I am glad to hear that you had such a wonderful time on your retreat and that the P90X has been a challenge that you two can do together. I know Andrew and I have had a blast working out together and even through the pain, we always find ourselves laughing. Way to go! I really enjoyed seeing Gid at the Mother's Day get together and am so impressed with his ever expanding vocabulary and little personality showing. He is such a sweet little nephew and we find ourselves talking about him at our apartment quite a bit. We wish we could see Gideon more than we do, but enjoy every opportunity!

Mom and Dad- We are looking forward to our time with you this weekend and always do. I enjoyed spending the evening after Mother's Day get together with you and hearing some of the wisdom you shared. Even if I talk more than I should sometimes, I really am listening to what you have to say and I reflect on it in my daily life. There are many times that I also share what you have taught me to other people! Keep it coming...

About us- Andrew and I are winding down an adventurous first year of marriage. We celebrated our 11 month anniversary yesterday (yes we celebrate months) and are planning to go camping in the next week or so. Andrew is slowing down at the tennis center and my awesome season at Westfield ended yesterday with a hard fought loss against 2nd ranked Carmel. I saw a lot of heart from the girls and loved the opportunity to help coach them. Today and tomorrow morning, we plan on watching the Kokomo sectional. My old team has won the past 9 sectional crowns and are going to be pushed hard this year. Eastern High School (which I was the assistant coach for last year) is the favored team to win. No matter what happens, it will be exciting.
Well a few days ago, I got news about the job I had interviewed for down at Westfield. It wasn't the news I was hoping for, as they let me know that they would be recommending someone else for the job. I have been disappointed, but have had a lot on my mind to keep me occupied. Throughout the process, I dedicated myself not to worry and I do not plan on changing that. I know that whatever I am supposed to do, it will happen and I am trying my best to listen. You can pray though for my peace about that situation because I do need help and support. Well, I am not trying to cut this blog off, but I am subbing at Kokomo right now and should probably get back to work...not that subbing is too rigorous :-)

Love,

Kristine
