tulsa bound!

2 weeks ago Luke made the big move to Tulsa! After lots of prayer and 2 months of being apart we have both felt that God was calling us to Tulsa (for the time being). Luke has never lived anywhere outside of Northwest Arkansas so this is a pretty big deal and I tried to make the move as comfortable and exciting as possible! I think he likes it so far and he's only an hour and a half away from his country life of (fishing, hunting, etc.) It won't be long though till he gets Tulsa figured out a little better and finds those outdoor places here to run to!!! I am so excited he is here and it won't be long till he loves it and calls it home (it will just take some getting used to). I am so excited to see what God has planned for both of us and I feel like now we can really pursue what that is now that he's here! I had to take a picture by a Tulsa sign! I was such a mom on the whole way down... I went to Arkansas to help him pack up his car and mine and so the whole way down I was snapping pictures of him! He'll appreciate it them one day and be glad I took them. Love you Luke!

update on life

Ok so there has been lots of things going on lately.... last Wednesday (August 26th) Luke and I attended the Hillsong United concert at the Spirit Bank center in Tulsa. It was such an awesome night of worship and you could feel the presence of God. It was so awesome and not like anything I have ever experienced... words can't really describe that amazing night. It left you speechless and in awe of how great our God is! Check out there website to learn more about who Hillsong United is and what they are all about. http://www.hillsongunited.com/ You will be amazed... Post me some comments and let me know what you think! The next night Luke and I headed back to Arkansas and I spent the weekend there before I started my first day of work on Monday (August 31st) at my new part time job! Yeahhh!! I've had some ups and downs about this, but I just kept praying about it and I finally got some peace about it. It's going to be a really great start to my career and I'm going to learn so much and I'm really looking forward to it. My part time job is at CalicoCorners which is a custom fabric store and a design center. They do anything from curtains, upholstery, comforters, bed skirts, and pillows! So I will be helping customers/clients who come in and are needing design help! I have an extensive training to go through first, but there is lots to learn so I'll probably be blogging about the new job over the next couple of weeks. It has been very hard to find a job and especially one that is in the design field... it is not exactly what I expected to be doing, but for now it will work and I am looking forward to it. I believe you have to start somewhere and that it is important to know as much as you can about interior design whether your dealing with fabrics, furniture, or accessories... they all tie in together one way or another and I happen to be starting out with the world of fabrics!

That's about all that is going on for now! I'm excited about this new chapter in my life and I am loving the weather here in Tulsa right now.... you can tell Fall is right around the corner and I'm looking forward to sweaters, hats, leggings, and boots =) I'm ready for change!
