A Time to Rest

This past week I told my dad that I think this is the 'least busy' I've been in about 5 years. This is not an exaggeration at all. For real. For the first time since 2007, I feel like I actually have time to "take time and smell the roses". Since the new year began, I have found myself with more time to spend with my hunny, more time to rest, more time to cook, more time for quiet times, and more time to do things just for me. It's amazing! No joke, I didn't even realize just how busy life has been, but gosh it feels so good to not have a ton of commitments in the coming days, weeks, or months.

The past 2 weekends have been restful for both hubby and I! Last weekend we each went shopping (me to the Smithfield Outlets and Zack to the Gun & Knife Show), and we enjoyed church, along with some good eating out using gift cards we got for Christmas. This weekend has been lovely as well; the weather sort of stuck us at home Friday and the first part of Saturday, but we enjoyed spending time with the Brice's while watching that incredibly stressful, but good NCSU game :) Today we helped a sweet friend move into her first apartment and have been relaxing at home since. I am thoroughly enjoying this season of "calmness", as I know it's a season. "For everything there is a season; and a time for every matter under heaven"- Ecc. 3:1

Preparing for Summer at Camp Oak Hill is about to really crank up- we're heading to Richmond next Saturday for a Camp Fair, so that's super exciting! I am simply thankful for the opportunity to be a part of God working at COH!

Until next time, I'm going to enjoy piddle-paddling around with projects I've been putting off for way too long :)
