So here I am again trying to think of just one High... but I can't do it. So you are going to get them all.
High #1: picking up my sweet Mom from the airport last Saturday (She has been gone for a few weeks) and then going to a Seattle Sounders game (thats soccer just in case you don't know) that same night with the hubs and some good freinds.... oh yeah!! and yay for date night!!!

High #2- having a big ol' bday party for my Mom and just celebrating her!! (and for some reason I did not get a single pic of the bday girl but I did of some of the party decor)
High #3- There is lettuce growing in the garden!!!
High #4- My husband and I just got accepted to GSI (global studies intensive) Kenya!!! We are beyond excited.
High #5- And to top it off, it is our 9 year Anniversary today!!! God is soooo good!! and I give all the credit to Him. Without His grace and mercy we would not have made it this far.

So on to the Lows... I only have 2 and they really are not that bad.
Low #1- We did not win the Ordinary Hero grant this time around.
Low #2- We are trying to plan a Ethiopian Dinner/Auction and the 1 day that we really wanted is already taken at our church... so now what do we do? try and find another venue or just switch dates?? I don't know but I am sure God has a reason for it. (The date was Sept 9, because Sept 11 is Ethiopian new year)
Lesson
That God's timing is perfect.
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend and an awesome Mothers Day!!!!
Happy Anniversary!! Sounds like an awesome week- thanks for sharing! I had never heard of GSI, but it sounds like an AWESOME opportunity! Excited for you guys!
