Lots of 'I Know's'

Okay, so it's been forever! I know! I think I just keep waiting for everything to line up perfectly and to feel completely settled, and I'm starting to realize that might take a while, so I give up, it's time for a blog. I can't believe we're coming up on a month since we left BC, we've only been in Tx for about 3 weeks.
So before we left was crazy! Erik was getting his scuba certification the last 3 days we were in BC, and his mom and I were packing and cleaning like mad....all I wanted to do was cry, I think I would have paid any amount to have someone come do everything for us those last days...but alas, it's done!

So we made it on the road, but not before our nightmare at the border...but thats a whole other blog that will probably never happen ;-) Here's some pictures of our trip...



This might have been the prettiest part of our trip

This is our 1yr. anniversary, camping in Utah or Wy, or something

part of our anniversary feast :-)


Our tent ...lol
This is what the majority of our trip looked like


































This was one of the nights we were too late to make it to our campsite so we stayed at a truck stop. It was pretty funny being sandwiched between all those trucks. And this was our little shaggin' wagon ;-) We were totally prepared for an alien invasion with all our tin foil.
























Anywho, we made it. It's been good and has definitely taken more adjusting than I thought it would (at least on my part) considering this is my home and where I grew up. But things are playing out and lining up, slowly but surely. Erik's been able to work for a Canadian company doing websites and I've been working for my mom and dad a few days a week. I think one thing we do know for certain though, and have seen happening so quickly in our lives is the healing, refreshing and restoring of our hearts, and our passions.

So as of now we are waiting, and living, and it feels good. We have an income, we're getting to work on our immigration stuff, and right now we just have opportunity to soak up all that God has for us, and it's nice to be in a place where we're wide open for whatever God has for us, because really we have nothing conflicting in our schedules or lives.....just wanted to throw that one out there to remind God ;-) Now the only other thing we really need is just some divine connections with other couples our age that we both click with....I know they're out there somewhere...floating around in the abyss...somewhere

Random, I know, I'll get it together someday.
