Phew!t

We've finally moved out of our little house in Holiday...she will be missed! However, the gas was unbearable and the hour drive to ANYWHERE was getting old, so I'm sure we'll manage. 

Right now we are staying with my parents, until we have the time and can seriously start apartment searching. I have to say, it's obviously a little awkward living at my parents again...but it's nice to know that you're saving money and aren't as stressed. I sleep in an extra hour in the mornings! I have an unusual amount of free time which is great. 

Anyways. Jake and I are doing great! We have some hard times this last month or so but I'm so glad that we have each other to lean on and turn to. I love it!

Alright, I'll check back in later and maybe pot some more!  

death is life.

Wow. This week has been an awful week. When people or a person close to you die you realize just how much your life really means and how fast it can be taken away. I'm saddened by the 5 deaths that were apparent this week, however I know 4 of them are in heaven sharing the golden roads with God. In all actuality, he took them out of a cruel and unsatisfying world. I thank God for my family and the life that He has blessed me with. It's not good-bye, it's see you later... 

RIP:

Dr. Deborah French,

Maria Chapman,

Adam Herrick,

Forrest Pollock

Preston Pollock

see you later.

I'm blessed.

I truly am a blessed person. I cannot explain the joy I have knowing that God is on my side. I don't have a worry. Even through trials and tests that are put in [our] path, [we] will overcome them knowing that there is a reason. You know you're doing something right when satan tries to come against you. I consider myself a threat to the devil not only me, but Jake as well. We are a team. Team Martin!

I've recently gone through situations with "friends" and I know the truth. Which they don't seem to understand /// Without a shadow of a doubt I know exactly what when on because I know God reveals all things to those who ask... It just sucks that those friends slander you in the process. But again, not to worry because the Lord  will take care of them. 

I just want to be what God wants me to be. Not me, but you Lord. Nothing matters in this world but you. I hope that something I say can make someone think and realize something that they hadn't realized before. I thank the Lord for what He's done and is doing in my life. ok enough from me... 

EDIT!!!

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I am now an Art Institute student, majoring in Digital Photography. So that's completely exciting and EXACTLY what I've wanted to do for a long time. I was just too chicken to switch. but I did! and I couldn't be any happier. Therefore, that being said, in the future I will be not only an event photographer (weddings, engagement pictures, family "candids", and parties of ANY sort) but I will also be doing Pet photography. That's right, pet portraits. We dress them up and take pictures. Makin' memories baby! That's my goal ladies and gents.
