I have REALLY been enjoying my new hobby of bird watching. Haha, I know how ridiculous that sounds coming from a 23 year old. Maybe that’s why I don’t have many friends my age?!?
And enjoy it even more when the woodpecker comes to visit. He’s so cool!! :)….and BIG!
For the first few days, all Bosley wanted to do was hang out in the sun.
After a few days, he got used to having them around and was pretty entertained by them.
but now….he’s letting them (and the squirrels) know that this is HIS yard! hahahaha!! He has NEVER just hung out in the grass like that!
Okay, away from the dog and birds, now. Kale and I have been going to a wonderful church for quite some time now. Everything about the church is amazing…but it is SO hard to get connected!! I used to be fine with just being a regular attender and having my own quiet time with God. Not anymore, though. I want to enjoy some great fellowship, make new, lasting relationships with fellow Brothers and Sisters of Christ, learn more of His word and serve like I never thought possible. I want this. I need this…and have been praying about it for so long.
Anyway, we tried a new church out today because I knew they were a little smaller and had SS classes. I thought, if we liked it, it would be easier to get involved. Well, as soon as we walked in, we looked at each other and KNEW this wasn’t it. I prayed and prayed for God to let me look past my judgments and really just hear from Him during the sermon. I was literally almost in tears the entire time because this is something I have wanted/needed for SO long and I just thought He was calling me to make this move. I know our journey is just beginning and only He knows where we will end up, so I’m leaving it all in His hands and moving forward. Please, please, please keep us in your prayers that He leads us to a place where we can serve and just FIT!
Hope you all enjoyed your weekend (and had nice weather!) and have a great Monday!
Sweet dreams, friends!

i love bird watching too! lol
I'm praying for y'all!! I would actually enjoy checking out churches. Ha!
I LOVE the picture of the back of Boz's head! Cracks me up.
I love bird watching! We just got a new kind of seed (that looks like trail mix--I'd almost eat it--ha!), and it really seems to be attracting lots of new birds. We have lots of goldfinches now (bright yellow--so cute!!). I always try to sneak to the window to take pictures, but they never stay!
We go to a large church, too, and I know what you mean about getting involved. I went for two years before I actually started trying to get involved (we joined a small group right after we got married). We made good friends that way. Also, choosing an area to serve in really helped. I worked in the toddler class for a while, then I started working in the cafe and I LOVE it--it's so fun! I've talked Lane into working there with me and it's made it even more fun to serve together! I think that really helped make the church feel smaller. It's neat working with the same people every week and getting to know them. Praying for y'all in your journey!
