Up Up and Away

The title says it all. My life just keeps moving up. Day by day I am so much more thankful that I moved away from Salem. I still miss people, and I will still go down, but I don't think it was ever really home to me. I went back there and thought about it and realized that I didn't feel homesick when I was there. Beaverton feels more like home and I haven't even been here that long.

I am also happier with the people I've met up here. I know I've mentioned the gaming group, but I just can't believe that I met such an amazing group of people the same week I moved up here. It has shaped my life up here dramatically and started the upward spiral of happiness in my life. Also, I am grateful that Pastor Michael suggested churches that we should try and the first one we tried is Epic and I am glad we started there. Though Sara and my schedule don't mesh well together, they will hopefully allow us to go to church together soon. This sunday I work in the Doughnut hole with Matt. We pass out doughnuts to the congregation. I am excited. I am hoping to meet a bunch of new people even if I don't remember them all, I think doing the Doughnut hole will help get me to be more outgoing at the church. It is also a way for me to serve the church while I'm waiting for my 6 month mark so I can do children's ministry and then hopefully jr high youthgroup.

more to be posted, but I've gotta run. this is a teaser =]

and a picture to leave it off. beach trip with a bunch of my new friends and one old great friend =]
