• What a day...

  It's been over a month since I have updated! I'm so bad at this. I want to be better...I do! Life has been busy in every aspect. So many changes (a big one which I can't exactly go into detail with right now!).

  Hope everyone had an amazing Memorial's Day. This one was a little different for me. My best friend Warren was supposed to be deployed last Monday, but it continued to be delayed. He called me yesterday morning. He was calling to say goodbye. He was at the Air Force Base about to step onto the plane. He had to call to say goodbye. It was probably the most awkward conversation. All I could say was "I love you, be safe, I'll see you soon." See you soon? Really Nicole? 10 months is not soon. I didn't even ask how he was feeling...even though I could tell there was something different in his voice. This is the moment he has been literally waiting for all his life, and here it was right before him. I'm sure it was different now that he has a wife of 6 months, and a home he is over.  I wish I could have said everything going on in my heart, but nope....stumbled over my words. I knew he could tell. Wish I could redo the conversation.

  When I thought about it. It was quite a day to be deployed on. A day most in the nation are remembering those who have given up their lives for our freedom.  A day where...even those who do not support our troops might actually stop to thank them. Warren is one of the most bravest men I know. There are no words to say how proud of him I am.

   

                                                            Me and Warren at his wedding.

  Yesterday I took my roommate to Santa Cruz. We spent the day touring different areas, all while I told her stories of me and Warren and showed her all of our hang out areas. We took over 300 pictures yesterday. Once she downloads them, I will post (some)them. It was quiet the perfect day.

  Random other tid bits...

  *11 days until graduation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  *Have a meeting with my Pastor on Wednesday about a huge change in my life. Once I get clearance to tell people...BELIEVE ME....I will!!!

  *Our home is starting to look like a home. We are all unpacked. We are still needing certain items of furniture though. God will provide though. What hasn't He provided yet? They are still fixing certain things as well around our place.

  As usual...I'm running around like crazy today. So I must be off. How was your Memorial Day weekend?

  Another question....What has God been showing you lately?

  Hope you are doing well!
