Change is coming

It's finally (almost) fall!!!

Fall is my favorite season. Kentucky turns into a gorgeous tapestry of colors as all the leaves change, I get to wear sweaters and drink Pumpkin Spice Lattes again, and there's this certain smell in the air that gives me goose bumps and makes me smile.

Fall is a transition time for the earth, and this fall is turning into a transition time for me and my wonderful husband.

We recently stumbled upon a new place to live and we'll be moving at the beginning of October. I'm extremely excited! It's going to give us some more space and allow us to plan for a family some time in the future. I can't wait to realized its potential! I'll be posting some photos once we get moved in and settled.

I recently became an official, full-time merit employee with the Commonwealth of Kentucky Department of Revenue!! I survived my probation, and now it's a whole lot harder for them to fire me =P It feels weird to know that there isn't a time limit on this job. I can stay here as long as I want. I guess I'm a big kid now. Oh my!

Mike and I also finally paid off our credit card this month! That was a huge weight off of us. It's a joy to know that, though there was a season of our life where we needed simply to make ends meet, it's not needed anymore. We're past that, and will never have one again.

God has showed me answers to my prayers this fall; some of them, I didn't even know I was praying. He listen and he provides.
