Great is Thy Faithfulness

I have SO many thoughts and praises to share, but I'm not sure I have the energy to actually write them out after a week of SERVE. So, for tonight, a few quick updates will have to do:

1. MARC GOT A FULL TIME TEACHING JOB! He actually had to turn down a part time offer and accepted a full time teaching position at Western Michigan Christian. He will be teaching a few 9th grade English classes, a Freshmen seminar class, and working with the international students at the school. It's a strange combination of classes, and the international student aspect doesn't actually have a job description, so he has to essentially make that up as he goes. I cannot tell you how proud I am of my husband, and how excited I am to SEE HIM EVERY NIGHT!!!!!!! Oh goodness, I could write about this forever.

2. Hope had her CT scan last week Tuesday. She actually did not need sedation, so it was super quick and easy! AND, we got the results back on Friday, which showed everything is NORMAL! HALLELUIAH!!!!
We still have to meet with the geneticist tomorrow morning, so we'll see what happens there.

3. Quimby is on the market. Tuesday will mark 2 weeks, and we've already had 3 showings. We had 2 days of SERVE groups at the house last week to do some cleaning, painting and yard work. Can't wait to be done with that burden. So many more thoughts here, too, but no energy.

4. SERVE was an amazing week of worship and service. We had amazing leaders, amazing students and a top notch Host team and volunteers from our church. There were, of course, a few snags along the way, but overall, completely worth the energy put into it.

5. With SERVE over, it's time to focus on my sister in law, Jen's wedding on July 29th. Marc & I are master & mistress of ceremonies and I'm singing in the ceremony. We have the bachelorette party this weekend, the wedding the following weekend, and the next day we leave for a week of camping!
