We finally (after 1 year and 4 months) have a microwave...thanks to the Asbury Inn updating their appliances. We did fine for the past year+ without one, but we didn't know how much we missed one until we had it again. Tasks such as popping popcorn, melting butter, heating leftovers, etc, have involved a much longer process over the past year. Neither of us had a microwave when we got married and even though it was on our "wish list", it was never really a priority. Thankfully, we now have a wonderful gadget that will help in the efficiency of our kitchen! (If you're laughing at us, you're not the first...we have had many laugh with us over the past few days as we've shared our excitement). And, for those of you who have visited and experienced our very uncomfortable, poor quality futon...we have also recentely added a new (COMFORTABLE) couch to our living room. We are amazed at how God is continuing to fill our apartment with the items on our "wish list", to make it a little more comfortable. He provides for us in so many ways and we are continually reminded of this truth.
It's a busy week for us as we prepare for the upcoming semester. We're trying to get things in order at home for a smooth transition into the semester and Kristen is keeping busy at work preparing for visitors and new students coming to campus this week. She will be involved in some of the activities of new student orientation and we will both attend as much of it as "new students" as possible. We are excited for this time and look forward to all that is ahead. We'll also be heading to Bloomington this weekend for a visit with family.
Hope you all have a fun Labor Day weekend!
