things i've been up to...
--working in sudan still (the drive gets old but it's a job)
--seth and i are getting an apartment!!! we move in on 8/1 and i'm so excited to have my own space
--my job was to decorate and get furniture for the living room, so i bought a big comfy sectional! and i also got a papasan chair (which seth despises...haha), still looking for a coffee table but i think i might have found it! seth got the extra bedroom for his game/tv room, he has a projector and we're putting it in there!!
--the bad thing about the apartment is its on the southeast side of town and i head northwest to work every day so it's complete opposite, but we couldn't let it pass us up, it was a great deal and very spacious so get ready to come visit!!!!
--my cousin had her triplets at the beginning of june, they have 2 different birthdays, Addison came on 6/7 at 11:59pm and Bryce came 6/8 at 12:00am and Collin came 6/8 at 12:01!! Addison and Bryce got to go home a little earlier than Collin, but they are all finally home a month after being born and are growing like weeds!! You can check out their blog The Siemsglusz's, she just posted some pictures of those cute kids!
--My nephews are doing great!! they are growing up so fast and i'm sad i don't get to see them as often but i do get to talk to them every once in awhile when they feel like talking on the phone. In august, Luke (the youngest-he's almost 3!) will get to experience his first Tech Football Game!!! i'm so excited to get to be a part of that-Jackson (the oldest-he's almost 5!) has already gotten to go to a few Tech Football games!!
--Seth and I got season tickets to TEXAS TECH FOOTBALL again this year and we actually got to move down a section so we are super close to the field...i think we're in row 21 or something!! and since we're season ticket holders we got to preorder tickets to all the home and away games!! which is awesome because my entire family is coming to the rice game!! and my parents are also celebrating their wedding anniversary so it's a big party!!
--Speaking of the parents...they are currently on an 11 day Alaskan cruise!!! i'm jealous that they didn't take me with them but i did ask for a souvenir!!! I just talked to him a little bit ago and well they haven't thrown each other overboard yet (it's a little joke we have going) but they sounded like they are having tons of fun!!!
--i tried to learn to wakeboard on saturday and well i did not get up :( i tried and tried it just wasn't happening, i just couldn't hang on it kept slipping out of my fingers. so i resorted to the trusty old tube and well as much fun as i remember it being (when i used to go to the lake with lisa at least once every summer and we would tube together) it's not as fun by yourself. especially when you roll and your entire leg goes numb and you have no idea what happend!!! haha i guess sometimes you just get to old for things, which makes me so sad cause i loved tubing!!!
--a few sad things have happened in the last week. One of my highschool friends lost a brother last week. He had been fighting lymphoma (sp?) and a rare diseas called HLH for i think around a year. He was young and was a great man and a great man of faith. Pray for his family and his newlywed widow. I also found out yesterday that a good friend of mine, her father passed away. Her mother and her just got back from a trip to boston and her mom actually flew to be with her dad b/c he was having a surgery so she hadn't seen her husband in 2 weeks. That would be really hard so please pray for them, it came suddenly, and I didn't know him but I got to talk to her yesterday and she said he was a great man and had an amazing faith. So please keep both of these families in your prayers, I can't imagine losing a brother or losing my dad and my heart goes out to them.
--well this is what's been going on in my life and i know its long and thanks for reading i should probably update more often so it's not an entire page! but sometimes it just doesn't happen. maybe once we get good internet in the apartment i'll be able to keep up with this more. till next time!!
