And Time Keeps Flying....

Wow, where is the time going?  I just want to take a hold of each day and say "wait, slow down!" But as we all know, life just seems to go faster and faster the older we get.  This past week was fall break for Matt and his seminary classes.  It was definitely a much needed fall break for him.  He was able to get so much done and spend quite a bit of time studying Greek with one of his class mates.  He also completely finished one of his online classes about the Southern Baptist Cooperative.  He was so thankful that God allowed him to get so much done last week.

It is definitely fall here right now!  The weather has changed so drastically.  It's so cold that I had to go find my winter jacket the other day.  It is kind of strange that it is already cold here, and it's still so hot over in California.  We sure are enjoying all the beautiful colors of fall over here.  Every day the trees look so different as they change from the golds, to oranges, to crimson reds.  Wow, God sure is busy with His "paintbrush" over here.

Yesterday, Sunday, we were invited over to our pastor's house in Campbellsburg, Kentucky.  As I walked in their door I suddenly realized that this was the first time that I had been in a real house since I left home.  It sure did feel good to be in a nice cozy home with family all around.  It definitely made me homesick for all of my family and friends back home.  We sure do miss you all.

This past Saturday, Matt surprised me and took me to the St. James Court Art Fair in Old Town Louisville.  There were so many different artists and different forms of art there.  We had a great time.  Matt even bought me a really interesting vase made by a potter from Athens, Georgia.  Matt is so good to me as he is always trying to surprise me with fun things in what little time he has off.  Praise God that I have been blessed with such an amazing and Godly husband.  All I can say is that he was definitely worth the wait a million times over.

Here are some of the pictures from our trip to the St. James Court Art Fair.  Until next time, please continue to pray for God to strengthen our hearts and minds as we train to serve Him.

Here I am in front of the fountain in the center of the art show. 

Here is one of the intersections where the art show is set up. 

There are many homes that are well over 100 years old in Old Town Louisville. 

Here is a picture of the vase Matt bought me.
