Truly blessed

I have been so bad and blogging and I apologize. I have had many things to blog about but my lazy side wins the battle every time I remember to do it. So my goal for this week is to blog everyday (ha we'll see) but it's good goal to have.

Anyway, we could not be happier to see 2009 go. It was a very difficult year for our family. Phil lost his job and luckily found another in a matter of weeks thanks to great friends but the job left him working in Kingman, AZ monday-friday. Phil and I have spent almost every week apart since May. It has been very lonely and awful for the both of us. I wish to never see another 2009 again. So we have been thrilled to have 2010 start off great! We have been thinking for a while to go to law school. We finally decided to apply and the 2nd day in January we found out Phil got accepted into the first school we have heard back from! The University of Maine! (so far away, I know) but we are so excited and it is a true blessing. For a while I was thinking we were being forgotten about, but it is good to be reminded that the Lord is always watching over us and has a plan even if it's the plan I don't want. We look forward to hearing back from other schools and to see where life will be taking us this year. The most exciting part of it for me is to see the light at the end of the tunnel when Phil and I can be back together again. 2010 is already looking up and am excited to see where else we get accepted to so we can make our decision!

I know it's dorky but I really wanted to take pictures opening his first letter.
