Spontaneous Weekend Getaway

Ryan and I are really excited to head up to Wisconsin this weekend to visit his family. Ryan found out last minute that he had 4 days off work this holiday weekend, so we decided to take advantage of this rare occasion and finally visit his family. Last night we did all our packing for the 7 hour drive, because we plan to leave right after I am finished babysitting today at 4 pm. Unfortunately, our Hyundai with air conditioning urgently needed some oil pan repairs, so we will have to drive the trusty, AC-lacking Volvo this time. Praise the Lord for cool weather today for our long drive. The ride home may be a little less pleasant, so be praying for us as we drive both ways in potential heat.

As far as pregnancy is going, I’ve been feeling rather tired lately, partly due to our increased busyness with the whole move coming up. I’ve been babysitting a lot and cleaning steadily, which can really drain my energy. But praise the Lord that I can find rest in God alone (Psalm 62:1 – shared with me the other day by my mentor Karen)! I’ve been really encouraged by the sustaining love and grace of God these days as I find myself lacking in my usual tasking fervor. Keep praying for us on our trip and during the upcoming move (2 weeks from today we sign our new lease!).
