So sorry to those who have followed my post’s. Life got real crazy for awhile and in addition my technology changed making it difficult to post like I usually did. Anyway, to all you faithful friends who have been wondering…..I do intend to keep blogging. I know that that journey has just begun and I so enjoy writing. So there is so much to update you on that I feel like I shouldn’t try…..maybe we should just start from today and hope that somehow you will catch up. There are many preliminary photos you can see of the wedding at: https://picasaweb.google.com/Cayeser1/Wedding#
Can’t wait to share the professional ones after they arrive. Well, all our thank you notes are almost done…..we wrote over 400 total and I’m sure we missed someone in there so if it’s you please just know we are very blessed and grateful. I’ve been loving being a wife. Cooking with all our new pans and appliances is so fun. Bill is really the one gifted at flavors and great food but I seem to be the one motivated to cook through the week. On the weekends I look forward to his omelet’s and creations he loves to make me. I have been substitute teaching all over Calhoun county. Last week I spend 4 days in 2 kindergarten rooms and this week I taught High School mostly. I’ve been struggling with my health a bit. I’m prone to a bad cough when it gets cold and every germ I pick up seems to multiply into a cold. I feel like I’ve been congested for a month and am thinking it may be time for my first Dr. visit.
I have joined the Battle Creek Masters swim team for months now and love the friends and intense workouts there. Our team is one of the largest in the state and next month we travel to Grand Rapids to compete in the Master’s state meet. I’ve never competed like this before but am so excited. Bill is going with me for the weekend as I take on 7 events plus a few relays in 2 days. I’m going to try my hand at sprinting the freestyle and butterfly mostly. I think over time I could be good at it. I also started our teams facebook page which your welcome to visit by searching for “Battle Creek Masters”.
I’ve also been playing guitar with the worship team at West Eckford Missionary Church. The piano player needed a month off and they asked me if I could fill in. I’ve really enjoyed it so far and the drive out there through the country fields is beautiful.
The snow is melting here and the birds are starting to sing. We are shopping for a nice hybrid bike for Bill as we want to spend the summer months out doors as much as we can. We also are looking forward to camping and sightseeing in this beautiful state.
Married life is wonderful…….filled with new adventures and new glimpses at the image of God. Loving and being loved makes you feel like that’s what life is really about. It also redefines you as your role changes and your aspirations are awakened to new things.
