God's Abundant Blessings

Praise God for his faithfulness! I was given a job offer on Monday as an oncology/palliative care nurse at University of Louisville Hospital. It'll take some adjustment though because it'll be night shift but hey, it's a job! On Tuesday we went to Richmond to visit our families and we drove up to Louie's parents house to see two precious puppies! Two lab/retriever mixes--1 yellow and 1 black. A few hours later we finally received word that Louie got into Southern. Then that night we spent a wonderful dinner at Angela's for my parents 25th wedding anniversary and the food was absolutely delicious. We all raved about it and I have eaten nothing like it before. Pretty pricey but I totally recommend it if your parents are paying ;).

We got Louie's official acceptance letter in the mail today. Good news, yes, but it also means the post office still isn't forwarding our mail! We sent in a request to have our mail forwarded beginning May 15th. Guess that didn't happen.

We also are looking at housing in Louisville. We applied to seminary housing but it looks like the waiting list is too long to rely on that right now. Luckily, we looked at some really cute "apartment homes" while we were in Louisville last week but it didn't look too promising availability wise. God came through again today when I emailed the leasing people and they said a 2 bedroom opened up YESTERDAY to be available in early August. It is truly amazing how God has opened up a floodgate of blessings on our life but we always remember that what God gives he can also take away for His glory. We are not deserving of these blessings but God, in his mercy, has given them to show his lovingkindness to us.

We are so excited to get to Louisville!
