I love your blog and have been hooked sense i caught onto those blueberry muffins of yours that my boyfriend demands me to make all too often ha. But for a semester I went to George Fox University in Oregon, and while i was there i started attending Solid Rock in Portland. It was purely AMAZING! I love Solid Rock and would definitely factor a great church like that into my moving decision. When i moved back home, leaving the church was one of the downsides since our churches (in such a small town of California) are nowhere as incredible as Solid Rock. ha, but I hope all is well! : )Lauren Missamorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00860780451127166649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763995892807876510.post-15759699539711067022011-01-14T11:40:25.085-08:002011-01-14T11:40:25.085-08:00I am so happy for you guys and I am honestly prayi...I am so happy for you guys and I am honestly praying each and every day that God will pour out his blessing on both of you!

My five months in Georgia were super-poopy and I am amazed by anyone who stays there for any extensive period of time. :) Hooray for having community on a larger scale again!

I often wonder what it would be like once we settle down and decide to make the next move. I think it's wonderful that you're going somewhere new, where you will be able to welcome opportunities, while doing something you love.

It is so hard but as long as you love him wholly (which you certainly seem to) you can find ways to manage. It helps so much to have a good network of loved ones who can support you through the trials of his being away. Good luck with your move and hopefully all goes well!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763995892807876510.post-57566530944493454582011-01-08T17:59:27.860-08:002011-01-08T17:59:27.860-08:00I'm so excited and happy for you guys!

We've moved (twice!) to Texas for Josh's work, even though it was not what I wanted to do, I couldn't imagine not supporting him and being with him. <br />I wish you guys the very best with your move! I've never been to Solid Rock, but Josh White (previously from S.R.) has a new church, Door of Hope, that we go to sometimes and it's awesome! <br />Let's do some hanging out when you get here. <br /><br />xoxoAnnie, The Friendly Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07398344072220249905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763995892807876510.post-59274298100813616032011-01-08T09:58:03.915-08:002011-01-08T09:58:03.915-08:00take us too, we hear there are lots more plants an...take us too, we hear there are lots more plants and green things to eat. plz.mintylolllsshttp://pbnceleryforevz.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763995892807876510.post-74604120675251851672011-01-08T09:12:27.415-08:002011-01-08T09:12:27.415-08:00something, but it was taking so long i stopped pay...something, but it was taking so long i stopped paying attention.G-Mannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763995892807876510.post-37153260075723171682011-01-08T09:04:34.849-08:002011-01-08T09:04:34.849-08:00I loved this post because it gave me even more ins...I loved this post because it gave me even more insight into the wonderful amazing person you are. I love that your faith means so much to you and I find that so inspiring. I hope your reading the Bible in 365 days is going well. I'm working my way through too. It's only been 8 days but I'm loving it! Keep it up! <br /><br />It's awesome that Josh is so supportive and your Dad and Vanessa (from their comments). <br /><br />Where can I find the podcast from solid rock? I'd like to check it out.Torihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13070959316495580841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763995892807876510.post-11634752619089407362011-01-08T08:50:02.013-08:002011-01-08T08:50:02.013-08:00Hmm wait, I just decided don't go.

I did the opposite thing about a year ago, I had major plans for going away to Asia and the US but lots of prayer showed me that I was supposed to stay in the Netherlands. I did - and it was the best decision I ever made :)<br />I am sure you guys will be happy in Washington, I wish you all the best there!Manjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07112634841837011878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763995892807876510.post-6106974997245411132011-01-08T01:38:56.229-08:002011-01-08T01:38:56.229-08:00Good luck with the move and jobs and everything el...Good luck with the move and jobs and everything else!
