Moving day!

This summer has been filled with moving and painting and moving and painting, not only our own office space but countless neighbors' houses. Tonight I will help Adam and Sarah move to their new, big house from their apartment next door. But they're not moving too far... they're moving from next door to 3 doors down. (By the way, Adam and Sarah had their baby boy, Max a few days ago! He is the cutest and looks just like Adam.) Adam and Sarah mark the fourth move I have been involved with this summer. It's been fun though!

Have a wonderful evening!

Tired!

Well, it has been a hectic 3 weeks. My family came to visit 3 weeks ago for 2 weeks, and I was able to take my vacation. We traveled around Norway and enjoyed each other's company. It was hard to see them go, and I miss them a bunch right now. But the day after they left, it was full speed ahead in preparation for this past week. From Tuesday through Thursday we had Foursquare Europe meetings for all the leaders of the five regions in Europe. The leaders left on Friday morning and that evening we had a leadership seminar for the leaders in our region. Needless to say, it was not only busy at the office but also busy at home getting ready for a constant flow of new guests with cleaning the house and doing laundry. (Just to tell you how much laundry I've done, I have used the clothes dryer constantly the last few weeks. I NEVER use the dryer but dry everything on the clothes' rack. But it is just too much laundry to dry on the racks right now!) Anyway, things have calmed down significantly, and I am able to rest a little bit in anticipation for a new set of interns September 20th. God is with me, I know!
