Life In Boston

I just realized that I haven't posted a blog in a while.....got lost of catching up to do! Well, I have really enjoyed my time in Boston thus far! Justin has really enjoyed working with the Boston Project and all the youth groups that come into town. I think he likes the fact that he gets to work outside and use his hands! He has also had the chance to hangout with one of his good friends from college. Matt, Justin's best man in out wedding, lives in New Hampshire, but is often in Boston to see his girlfriend. This has given Justin the chance to hang out with him a few times.

I have got to know the people that we live really well....and have actually became pretty close with a couple of the girls in the house. The friendship with the girls has really made my time here more fun! Just yesterday Christina and I took Opal to the beach. It was so funny to see my dog swim in the ocean. Every time that I made her get out to go chill for a bit, she cried and cried until I let her go back in. After a couple of hours a park ranger said that I couldn't have her there during the day because it was hazardous to the children. I think that all the parents liked having Opal there because she was like a mini babysitter....keeping all the children occupied! I was actually happy that we had to leave because I got SO burnt! LOL, I guess I didn't use enough sunscreen.

Justin and I have had a lot of fun supporting the Red Sox. Justin has loved them for years, but now that we actually get to go to game....its crazy! I actually went to my first game last Wednesday....it was a blast! We had standing room only seats, but we wiggled our way into some actually pretty good bleacher seats!

I think that thing that I have enjoyed that most about this summer is my time to relax. I guess that is one of the good things about being a teacher....you get summers off!!! With my free time I have really been trying to paint more often. I actually finished one painting and have began a new one. Here is actually and picture of the one that I have finished.

Justin and I still are not sure what plans that God has for us in the fall. Its hard to still not know, but the one thing I am certain of is that God is faithful...and in His time, he will show us His plans! With that said, Justin and I are flying in to WI on Saturday (July 5) to interview at a church. We are excited and hope that if this is the place for us, that God will lay that on our hearts and on the hearts of the church! Who knows....

After getting burnt yesterday, I now get to look forward to taking a group of Middle School girls to an out door water park. Though I am excited to hangout with the girls....my sunburn is not so excited about being outdoors all day again!

Well that's about it for now, but I will be for sure blogging again soon about the 4th of July and about our WI trip! Tata for now!
