Can't keep up!

So it's been a while since i have written and i don't have many excuses... just that life is going too fast! :)
Next Saturday we move into our new house that's right on the campus of Horison HS! Yeah! Many prayers later God is truly letting us know how much He desires us to be ministering at this HS! We are so excited!
Soccer started this past week and on Thursday we took our team to Seaside for an overnighter. I think we got about 5 hours of sleep and the girls, probably around 3. Needless to say we were all tired and ready to be home Friday evening. It was a blast, hopefully the girls thought so too!
So my days consist of packing, soccer, packing and packing some more! My problem is I am going to run out of boxes soon.
We are looking forward to all of these changes, along with cory starting his own classes at Multnomah on Monday. We are still praying for money for him to go! If you think about it give him a shout out for us... the first time they sent us the financial aid info it got lost in the mail- not good. The money is due Sept. 3rd, very soon!
Better get ready for good ol' church!

Changes

So our adventure continues! I have realized lately that life changes too quickly to try and keep up with this BLOG thing! ha! But I will keep trying!
Well, I am officially jobless... my last day at my job was last Tuesday and it's been amazing having this freedom! I have applied to work at a Christian HS for this next year, but that won't start until September. In the mean time we are selling our home to some friends of ours and moving into our new place September 1st! God is so good and He has provided us a place to live right on campus! We are so excited to begin pouring into the lives of the HS students at this school. We just started our soccer practices this week and will be coaching the girls varsity team together. We can't believe how God has blessed us with an opportunity to work together as a married couple- we were meant to do this!
Life is good, I am just trying to keep focused on what God has promised me and Cory. We just need to keep obeying Him and He will continue to do the work. We are just His hands and feet, doing His work by His Spirit!
Our biggest prayer is that we have money to provide Cory to keep going to school. He is at a Bible college and is on his way to work towards getting an undergrad in Christian Ministries. This is an important part in what we feel God's plans are for us.
I will keep you posted on what happens next in life's BIG adventure!
