Good Morning!
I will admit, I have been a really really really bad Blogger lately. I promise I am going to do better and try not to go months without posting. Anyway! I want to brag on our GREAT GOD for just a min.
God has been doing some really amazing things in mine and Nick's lives lately!! Nick and I have been praying for God's will in our lives to be done. We have been so blessed this past year and God has provided every need for us. On that note Nick was very thankful for his job at Wal Mart, but He knew that it was just his resting place for Him while God prepared the perfect Job for him. A few months ago we were watching the movie Unstoppable (Good movie, ALOT of Language) and Nick got a word from God. Nick felt the Lord ask him if He was ready for a carrier change and Nick was like YES LORD! He felt like God told him that he was going to work on a Train. Nick shared this with me later that night. I will admit that at first it sounded a little far fetched.. I mean Nick has never said anything about working on a Train or anything like that. This next part is AWESOME... The next morning I left very early for work (now if you know me you know that had to be a God thing because I never leave early for work usually just on time). As I was passing the gas station I knew I had time to stop and so being the Diet Dew lover I am I thought I will stop by there and get me a Mountain Dew. As I was coming out of the store my Step Dad L.W. stopped me and said that He had talked to his cousin (who works for Norfolk Southern) and he told him to tell Nick to apply for the RAILROAD because they would be hiring in the next few weeks or so. Hello talk about my Jaw hitting the floor... I was like God really? I called Nick right then and told him! That night Nick put in his application. And then we started the waiting game.... We did not hear anything from them for two months. Nick got a email from them saying that he would need to go to a hiring session and plan on being there all day and guess what it was on a Wednesday (the only day of the week Nick was off at Wal Mart). He went through the hiring day and they told him that they would get in touch with him in 3-5 business days. An hour after he left the hiring session, he got a call offering him a job working on a TRAIN! GOD IS SO GREAT!!! I am so excited for Nick! He is doing his training right now. He had to go to Georgia for three weeks for classroom training at the end of July and now he is at the local yard doing training and He will have to do some traveling.
On another note my photography has taken off and I have so much business right now! Thank You GOD! I am so excited that God is doing so many great things right now, not only in my life but in the lives of our community!
Lindsey, my friend whose wedding I was in back in May, and Kyle, my cousin by marriage, is going to have a sweet baby (I am hoping its a girl, because I need to spoil her rotten)! They are so excited and we are so excited for them! Here is a few pics from their wedding =)
On another note.. My best friend, Sarah. is getting married Saturday. I am so ecited for them and so excited to get to take pictures for them at their wedding. I know God has great things in store for them as a couple!
