Long weekend life update.

I'm having a four day weekend and it's pretty great!

On Sunday. we had "big lunch" at my parents' house. Big lunch is just that, we married kids join up at mom and dad's for a BIG, loud, yummy lunch. My parents recently got Wii Fit Plus and we all had a blast trying out the different games and challenges. I wish I had taken pictures, some of it was just too funny!

Yesterday was a busy day and I was glad I had the day off to help out George (however I must confess, slightly bummed that my day off included waking up early and driving all over town). He had a job fair in the morning (well, actually, we were lied to and it was a three hour waste of time, but I guess that's beside the point), then we had a couple of hours to go home. After our brief break, we went downtown to UT for a meeting there and were supposed to go straight to our final job club immediately following. Job club was very important this time as it was a networking night and an opportunity for George to meet more people and get some good feedback.

Unfortunately, Killer, my wonderful, reliable car, decided to overheat before we could leave downtown and get to job club. BUMMER. Thankfully, my parents came to our rescue, but dad couldn't fix whatever the problem was. Thanks again, Mom and Dad!

Today, the car in the shop and we are at home. Things have been so busy lately, that this forced time at home has been really, really nice. We cleaned the apartment, did our Bible study together and are just hanging out.

I was tempted yesterday to lament, "Does anything go right for us?!" But God was bigger than my 'tude. Before I picked George up and my car quit on us, I felt like God was reminding me how far we have come and how blessed we are. For years I prayed to have my husband here and now, he is. God came through for us and I am so, so thankful. I was tempted to worry about how we would pay for a car repair and how I'll get to work, and what if job club was important and what about.... But God is just so much bigger than that. He has given us peace about all aspects of our future and we are choosing to trust and rely on Him and His provision. God is good.
