Can I get a Whoa!?

I don't even know where to begin if I can be quite honest. So much has been going on I don't even know where time has been lately.

• Preparing for my daughter's trip and then anxiously awaiting her return last week. (if you follow me on Instagram you graciously walked that with me. I can't thank you enough! love you guys!)
• Finishing up our last 2 weeks of this school year with core subjects. 
• Planning our summer lessons and plans.
• Researching the new path of curriculum and homeschooling style God has laid on our hearts. 
• Finalizing said curriculum and making lists upon lists of where to check out before purchasing day arrives.
• Making supplies lists to be ready for the 2013/2014 school year 
• Watching and praying for everyone affected by the storms that have been all around lately. 
• Finishing up end of semester leadership and groups activities/meetings at church.
• Finishing one Bible study and starting up another one with awesome friends for summer get togethers (I can not even contain my excitement over the study we are starting this week! Gideon by Priscilla Shirer. Oh the revelation in DAY ONE!! This is going to rock my world! YAY!! Man is it meeting me right where I am!). 
• Continuing on the weight loss journey God has blessed me to be on. 8 weeks under my belt and 16 lbs and many inches down... Can't wait for many more weeks to go. 
• Breathing... I'm sure that has been in there somewhere as well. 
• Really digging into all God has been revealing lately regarding his will for our lives. It's been so deep and so big it truthfully has been a lot to process. We are still processing.

Crazy huh?

All in all life has been really great. Crazy busy but really great. The end doesn't appear in sight for the busy but it's such a good busy that we honored to be on the journey. The revelation we have been receiving lately has left us with a lot of peace. I wish I had the words to justly describe what God has been teaching us.

This summer is going to be great as we gear up for a short summer break and dive right in to year round schooling. Our new school year will start the second week of July. We are pumped for our new curriculum (I'll share shortly... once we finish this year), and we are excited to walk out the revelation God has been laying out. 

He has really been working on me regarding this space. How I have let it fall to the wayside. I don't feel like I have done with this space the God intended. I don't know what that means for this space. I love this blog and the precious friends I've met through it. It's been such a longing to come sit and "pen" my thoughts but my heart and thoughts have been chewing so much on all God has been placing there words to piece it all together has escaped me. I want to post but it almost seems like I have forgotten how. Horrible for someone who has been blogging for 9 years huh? Maybe I need a tweak to my space. Maybe I need to spend more time with God to seek his desire for this space. 

Either way I want to apologize for seemingly falling off the earth and disappearing from this space with no warning. 

The kids are rustling out of their comfy covers so I should wrap this up for now. I praying for you all and miss you dearly and definitely hope to be back soon. Part of what God is calling us back to is being more present (yep... my word for the year) with the family. We've lost some of that in the hustle and bustle of this year so far. Going back to the basics and then some. Can't wait! 

Time to feed the kiddos. 

Until next time.
