Prayer...

Psalm 119:169-173

May my cry come before you, Lord;
    give me understanding according to your word. 
¹⁷⁰ May my supplication come before you;
    deliver me according to your promise. 
¹⁷¹ May my lips overflow with praise, 
    for you teach me your decrees.
¹⁷² May my tongue sing of your word,
    for all your commands are righteous. 
¹⁷³ May your hand be ready to help me,
    for I have chosen your precepts.


Psalm 119:145-152

I call with all my heart; answer me, Lord,
    and I will obey your decrees. 
¹⁴⁶ I call out to you; save me 
    and I will keep your statutes.
¹⁴⁷ I rise before dawn and cry for help;
    I have put my hope in your word.
¹⁴⁸ My eyes stay open through the watches of the night, 
    that I may meditate on your promises.
¹⁴⁹ Hear my voice in accordance with your love; 
    preserve my life, Lord, according to your laws.
¹⁵⁰ Those who devise wicked schemes are near,
    but they are far from your law.
¹⁵¹ Yet you are near, Lord,
    and all your commands are true. 
¹⁵² Long ago I learned from your statutes 
    that you established them to last forever.

I'm almost done with orientation at Bronson! now I'm working 3 weeks on night shift  before I get to go back to day shift! Yay!! 4 nights down...4 more to go! I most definitely am NOT a night owl, so I'm so happy I got a day shift position before I even finished orientation!! :)

patience

Teach me how to be patient Lord....I want to be patient in everything but certain areas I'm having a really hard time being patient with........

new job!

Week 2 of working at Bronson is complete! I'm exhausted from my new schedule and am on brain overload, but it's good! I'm learning a lot!

Ok, this post is done even though I'm excited about my new job! I'm tired and gonna go plop myself down on the couch! ;)

Mary Poppins!

Sooo....last night my sister Brye and I had the opportunity to see Mary Poppins the musical on Broadway in Grand Rapids!!!!!! It was the best show I have ever seen!!! EVER!!! Everything from the choreography, actors/actresses, sets, costumes, special effects, staging, lighting, etc.!!! I would see it 1,000 more times and wouldn't be sick of seeing it!! :) After the show, we were able to meet several of the cast members for what's called a "talk back" and ask questions!! We can't take pictures of videos during the show unfortunately, but I do have a few pictures from before and after! :) I can't even put into words how amazing this show is!! If you ever get to see this show you should get tickets....you won't be disappointed! :) If I could be in a Broadway musical I would totally want to be in this musical as a part of the ensemble so I could do all the dancing!!!! :D

I'm so happy I got to see this musical as I wanted to see it over a year ago and didn't think I'd ever get to see it and now I did!!!!! :) Brye and I also bought matching Mary Poppins t-shirts!!! I had such a fun time seeing it with Brye!!! :)

Valentine's Day

Yesterday was Valentine's Day! Andy and I decided that we would spend it at home and make a nice dinner together and then relax! So we made steak, mashed potatoes, dinner rolls and applesauce, and sparkling grape juice together and then had triple chocolate cheesecake for dessert! It was a lot of fun and it was delicious! We used our china for the first time and we got dressed up too! It was so nice to finally be able to spend Valentine's Day with him!! He's the best!
