End of April

Well, as of tomorrow, we have been in our new apartment for a month. Man does time fly. It has been an interesting month. We have learned about eachother and have come to depend on each other more and more. I think this is very good for us as the challenges we face ahead are large and building this relationship now, will help us later. So things that have happened in April
April 3-4- We celebrated our first Easter as a married couple, did not exchange baskets or anything like that but enjoyed a nice meal together
10-11- Not much really happened this weekend, just took it easy and relaxed a little. It was nice to just be together and enjoy our time.
17-18- My birthday weekend and also our 6 month anniversery weekend. We had a good time together, went down to Syracuse to go to the mall and had fun walking around the mall and exploring the Emerson Art Museum there.
23-24 We went to Camp Long Point for their young adult retreat. It was nice to meet some young adults in the division and also those who are not to far from us...at least not far in terms of living in upstate NY. Yes, most visits will require a journey of over the river and through the woods but it was nice to meet some people our age and start building relationships. We are looking forward to the future and building them even more.
The past week, Shane spent in the field. They went out to the range and practiced and Shane did really well, he shot at an expert level...which in my opinion is pretty good considering he is still rather new to shooting. Basic training was the first time he had ever shot a gun in his life.
All in all we are adjusting well and getting aquainted and settled in. We are excited for what our future holds. Please continue to pray for us as we move on in this new season of our lives.
Oh yeah, I am in the process of hopefully becoming certified to have child care in my home. I am very excited about this as it will give me something to do and it will be nice to have the certification.

Finally Settling in

Well, we have been in our new apartment for about a week now. I just signed the paperwork for the delivery of our own washer and dryer...I'm excited...pathetic I know, but I am.
It has been a beauitful last couple of days, last week we where able to go exploring and spend the day together driving up the coast of Lake Ontario and St. Lawrance river. It was beautiful, we can not wait however for summer to arrive and for things to open up...not much else has been going on! Hope all is well for everyone else!
