oh hey change: welcome to my life

Today I was just thinking of how much has changed in the past year and a half and how thankful I am for the Lords goodness in my life.

In December 2009 me and two of my friends (allie and erica who are also hair stylists) opened up our own salon (the picture below is me and ashley before I did her wedding hair :)

 1 year ago on March 12th Josh proposed to me in PA and as I'm sure you know, I said yes.




In June 2010 we bought our first house together

7 months ago on September 12th we got married and my life became so much more wonderful 


And now I am almost 16 weeks pregnant and we are expecting the arrival of our first baby in august

Needless to say, a lot has happened in a year and a half. When I look back at how much I have grown and changed mentally, spiritually, and physically I am in awe of the Lord and His power and goodness. He has brought me to so many new levels and places that the evidence of Him in my life is more real than anything else. There's no way I brought all these blessings to myself...He has been pouring out so many wonderful things. I have been stretched in so many ways and taken on so many new roles and there is no way I could have done anything without his help. His peace, joy and strength have been with me through everything. I am so thankful.
I cant even imagine what this next year or so will look like but I am so excited and I know one of the main things will be parenthood :) I honestly cannot wait to be a mom. I have a feeling it is going to be one of the biggest blessings and the most challenging of all :) more than anything, I am so glad I get to start this journey with Josh....the love of my life. 

I guess all I can say is I like to live in constant movement and growth :)
