This past weekend I was able to fly back to Oregon for my friend Kristianna's wedding in Silverton. I met Kristianna when she came out to Maui for Bible college a few years ago. We bonded instantly and I feel like we have know each other forever. I was very honored to be in her wedding and to be able to share her special day with her. Her husband's name is Ryan and I had never met him before this trip and so it was so nice to finally see the man who had stolen her heart. The man who we had spent countless phone calls talking about and who I had prayed for as well. The two of them are such a beautiful couple and I know that the Lord is going to do a great work in their life and marriage. Also while I was over in Oregon my parents made a trip up to see me for a day. I had not seen them in about 9 months and though our time was short it was very sweet. I wish I could have spent more time with them but just being able to sit and talk face to face was such a blessing to me. We laughed about old times, talked about what the Lord was doing in mine and Jacob's life now, and mostly just enjoyed being together. Overall it was a wonderful trip spending time with my girlfriends and parents, but its good to be back home!
