It has been almost exactly one year since my last post. This year has felt like the longest year of my life. As I reflect back over everything I have done it is probably the most memorible and that is why it feels the longest. The funny thing is that I really only remember the last 6 months to be absolutly honest other then preparing for the wedding I don't really remeber Feburary to August other then the camping trips I went on. Lets start then in August.
After a summer of planning a wedding (done mostly by my lovely wife) and taking youth out on camping trips and outings I got married. It was a beautiful wedding with lots of friends and family attending. There is so much from that day I wish i could share on here but words would not express them. Here is a highlight video of it though and a couple pictures. http://youtu.be/-55hCN_p7n8
The video was done by our friend Sean and Luke and the photo is from Rachel they did a great job capturing our day.
After the wedding we took a 2 week honeymoon/ road trip from Haliburton ON. to Luninberg NS and back. It was a wonderful time filled with great weather, great food, amazing sights and time with each other and visiting some friends along the way. Again something that I can't describe in words but it was an amazing time and we hope to travel out east again.
We came back and began our life together, in Moose Jaw and hit the ground running. There have been lots of transtions in the last 6 months that I have been trying to figure out. I am learning what it means to be a husband and share life with Leanne. I am still at Joe's Place in the same role as last year but we have had some staff change over and more growth happening and so we are on a seemingly steep learning curve and have some growing pains. It is all good stuff but it's also been hard to transtion from the way things have always been to where they are heading. We are starting to feel that our time at Joe's is coming to a close in the next year or so but we are unsure what that looks like or means for us. I hope and pray that God will bring in the right people to take over our roles in the time remaining for us at Joe's. Then we would like to start a family. But all that is in Gods hands.
This past janurary Leanne and I took our second trip together to Mexico. that was a time of relaxing and getting our feet back under us. As the christmas season was not much rest visiting with family and running the newyears party again. Which went really well here is a highlight video of Voltage.

At this point in life I am overwhelmed by all that is going on. It's crazy to think what this coming year will bring. I have a lot to learn about being me. I am trying to spend more time with Jesus he is still a big part of my life and I take comfort in known that Christ and my wife are the two constent things in my life despite all the change. I recoginize that I must do my part in my faith and in marriage to keep it going strong and I am willing to do that despite how tired I may be. There is a light on the horizon that keeps me going knowning that their is a new day dawning.
Lord I thank you for my life and how you are bring it together. Forgive me when I think that it's all me or doubt that you are there. I am sorry for not taking the time to BE with you and listen to your leading. I am often lost in thought trying to see you i am. Please continue to draw me closer to you and hear your voice in my life as you lead me. May you make me into the man, husband, friend and one day father you desire me to be. I am nothing with out you and your grace in my life. Thanks for giving me breath and leading me to be who you want me to be. I pray all this in the name of Jesus. Amen.
