busy day..

first i tried going to bed early because i was leaving early in the morning to go to kansas city. the last time i looked at the clock was 3:30am then i was WIDE awake at 5am. i watched the minutes go by until my alarm finally went off at 5:45. After  getting ready i finally left for kc. 

in the car, the whole 2 1/2 hours, i listened to worship songs and it was AWESOME. ive always thought that worship in a church service needs to be longer and having the full 2 1/2 hours to worship before going in to church was incredible! i love our church in kc, everything about it, but i just wish there was more singing. yesterday the choir did an awesome special and then the other song they did was one of the ones i listened to most of the way up. 

then i went to visit a friend at her church and got to watch her in action. it was awesome! and i got hugs from her kids, which i love and miss! 

then i FINALLY got to call my mom and talk to her since it was after church and she thought i was in wichita still :) so i talked to her until i got to her house and then she all of a sudden said "someone just came in my house!!" STILL not knowing it was me. so i walked in her bedroom and she looked at her phone and then looked at me. it was awesome seeing my mom again! ive missed her and it was good to see her again after 2 1/2 weeks. 

we had lunch and went shopping and hung out at her house. i can't wait to see her again in a couple weeks! 

on my way home i was falling asleep and couldnt call anyone because i had almost no battery left and wanted to save it, just in case. i finally got home at 9pm and had dinner with the hubs. it was a good trip and i can't wait to go back. 

i like living in wichita i just like going home too.

soooo....wichita.

we moved here about 3 weeks ago and im just now starting to like it.

i dont get out much, but there really isnt a need to. i look for jobs on the internet and apply and send resumes that way. the couple days i did go out looking, no one was hiring and the ones that were said send a resume to my email. BUT i think i *hopefully* found a family to nanny for. this couple has triplets! 2 boys and 1 girl. the kids are SO cute! and so are the parents!

one thing i dont like about being here is not knowing ANYONE. i cant wait to start going to a church every week and get involved. i miss being in a bible study and working with the kids. i miss my family and my work and joels family and my church.

one thing that i do like is that i have been cooking and baking a lot more. which is not always good for the waist line, BUT im glad im getting used to cooking. i still call my mom all the time about everything when i have questions but shes an awesome cook so im glad i have her to call. i miss her like crazy and it seems to be REALLY bad today.

another thing, i gave up diet coke on the 10th of january and have only had half a mountain dew since then. i decided to do this because i hear from EVERYONE that its bad for you, blah blah blah, but i am involved in 2 weddings this summer and want to lose weight, now i just need to get my butt outside and start running.
