Way too long!

Okay so I haven't blogged in quite some time. Probably because nothing has really happened and yet thousands of things has happened which is sorta making life super stressful! So I think I am going to make this blog into more of a list of things that are going on!
1) I got a promotion!!!!!! YAY! yeah i'm pretty much super stoked and wicked excited and I really love my job. But at the same time there are 2 other girls that applied for the job and they are super mad they didn't get it because they both have worked there a lot longer than me but they aren't mad at the bosses they are mad at me. And in case you did not know I really hate drama and I don't talk about people but they are acting like 5th graders and telling people all this terrible stuff about me! AH! SO yeah I love my job but its kinda yucky right now. But there is this one boy Justin who I work with...He writes on my fb wall all the time and his profile picture is kinda ghetto...which I think is really funny ...but anyways he has been super nice and tells them drama girls off for me all the time haha.
2) I am really sad you can't come. But I know that we will get to see each other whenever God wills it t happen. Which hopefully will be sometime in the near future before my wedding happens.
3) Jill still hasn't tried on dresses so I am not sure what one I pick yet haha.
4) Andy and I talked about and are praying about maybe moving to Virginia with in the next year or year in a half. Our life really is there. I feel like God wanted us to come home for awhile but I also feel like he is calling us back to Virginia. Hopefully I will be able to be promoted again before we leave and then I really want to apply for a assistant manager position down there and then we could definately move and then he would find a job once we got down there or something to that effect. I would miss my family but not as much as I miss all of you guys ;)
And I think that is it and now I really need to go make my lunch and got to work.

Love and miss you!

Well.

There is not too much going on as far as wedding planing. Kinda a stalemate right now.I haven'y picked a dress yet because Jillian still has to go and try them on. So it may be a few weeks. I may be able to get a few days off I still have to check work has been kinda crazy lately.  Oh and I throughly enjoyed your song, name and artist please so I can put it on me ipod and  I very much am enjoying this song right now--http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAKBXBXz1fo - I most definately cried the first time I heard it. Not really sure why I'm just one of those people that can cry at songs..I'm a mush haha. But I really love it. Like you can just hear his heart crying out. He wrote this song when him and his wife were going through a rough patch. idk it is just a good song. 


thats about it. I miss you :(

Life's a journey...take pictures along the way.

I'm having one of those typical college student moments. What in the heck does God want me to do with my life. I thought I had it all figured out and then I changed my mind and thought I had it all figured out...and now I think I may have been correct the first time. AH! So my original plan...how much do you think God laughs when we say that..."my plan". He probably just yelled to Jesus "Hey Jesus...want to see something funny" "Sure Dad." So Jesus runs across the clouds over to God who is sitting in this giant home theater and points and says "look Heather thinks she has things all figured out" Jesus replies "Why in the world would she want to figure things out in the first place doesn't she realize she has the God of the universe planning it all out for her in the first place" God then says "Well Son at least some of you get it." God then blinks and Heather has change of heart and knows exactly what to do. So this is what I picture in a less cynical version of course. But sometimes I feel like I have to have everything figured out right now! And like I have no idea what in the world I am supposed to do. First off I know when I have kids I want to home school them. So my original thought was to go to school for primary education so I could be a fabulous teacher to my unborne children that I may or may never have. Then I got my super awesome job and I was all like well I could seriously make a super awesome career out of this and was like lets go to art school and go home. So i went home, which was in the plan because God has done seriously tremendous things in my life since I have gotten home. So then well trying to pursue art LU did not transfer my stuff in time so I was stuck at LUO. Then I got a job at Home Depot which I love and think hmmm...maybe I could go to school for business and possibly make a career out of Home Depot. All of which I think that I could honor God in some way, becuase all use the talents He has so graciously provided me. But what do I choose...which one will I be able to do the most for God with. in 50 years from now I don't want to look back at my life and wish that I had done more for the Kingdom of God. I want to be able to have a very long conversation with God about the things that He was able to do with my life. Does that mean I have to go be a missionary in a far off land? Or raise up the best children I can? Or stay at Home Depot forever? Or go be a photographer? Or all of the above? Andy and I are talking about starting a bible study..that may or may not end up in starting a church...becuase he is in the same boat I am...not quite sure what  to do with his life. But every time me and him have this conversation it always comes back to him being a pastor(which I personally think would be a fabulous field for Andrew. Pray please) and when I have this argument with myself I mostly come back to education...does that mean thats what I should do?I wish God left us a guidebook....oh wait He did the Bible...hahaha I just realized that as I was typing this sentence..it was not staged I am not that good of a writer. Well I suppose if I want to know what to do with my life staying steadfast with God is a good way to start.
I love that when I blog I start off with all these crazy questions that I think I need someone to solve. But then by the time I actually write it down and process it through my brain I get it answer. Before I started this my heart was just so unsettled...but now it's quiet calm.
Thanks for solving my life problems! :)

Oh btw check out this site.... I sorta love her. And the Zander family is my old youth pastor and his fam.

Oh and also I went for a walk a few months back...I found a tub in the field.. I just got around to editing some of the pictures. There are only like 4 but I have no free time at all so it is what it is.

Can't you just picture some farmer hanging his shirt up on a hot August day, maybe it's jsut because I live next to a farm that I can lol.

Another shirt pic

And the tub. That I found in the field across the street from my house.

The tub again.

Well glad you read my life.
