Since leaving Honduras, I have had the wonderful opportunity to be with some of my closest family and friends. I have shared delicious meals with amazing people, caught up over coffee and ice cream with caring friends, created new games before watching a great American pastime, explored a waterfall with a new bride-to-be, went to the drive in with my amazing family, danced bachata with one of the most beautiful and courageous women I know, listened to live music with people I love, experienced some of the joys of childhood again by hanging with some of the most adorable children that God has ever created, had heart to hearts with best friends, enjoyed the moment where one of my dearest friends picked out her wedding dress, went halve-sies with my bestie who I'm blessed to call my sister, and shared stories and life advice with my incredible parents around a campfire... And this is just a few of the many moments that have made up the past five weeks!
To all of the people I was blessed to see while home, thank you! I'm blessed to have you in my life and those memories will sustain me when I am missing all of you!
Tomorrow starts a new adventure for me. I am Colorado bound in the morning. A new chapter that has been in the making for years. I fell in love with Colorado in 2010. I've always wanted to go back, and possibly live there. It is amazing to look back right now and see how God has worked in my life to make this happen. It is His hand at work. It is Him placing each little thing in my life over the past 5 years that has led me there. It is the gift the He gave me of my time Honduras that showed me that I am capable of moving somewhere where I don't really know anyone and building strong friendships and connections. It is His timing. And tomorrow it all begins. I am so thankful for this opportunity to continue to trust in His plan, His timing, and His never ending love for me.
Next time I write, the new adventure will be in full swing! Now - Colorado or bust!
