Wow. What a long time!

I have felt like the last half of this summer has been nuts. And I was right. I have barely posted anything! Here's some things that have been going on (in no particular order)...


-My wonderful friend Renee has been here from Canada. Even thought we haven't been able to hang out as much as we would have liked it has been wonderful when we have!!! Please move back to Ohio soon!

-My aunt and uncle and cousins from Wisconsin were here. It had been 2 years since we had seen them last. Then my cousin from Indiana and my aunt from Florida came too.

-I'm going to go stay with Laura next week. We're going to Shipshewana. Fun! 3 hour car ride with Chloe, not looking forward to that.

-We looked at a huge house the other night and had to know in an hour and a half if we wanted it. Stressful! But we decided against it.

-We went to Marblehead for the Halupki Festival.

-Visited Rach in the hospital.

-Finished my "Believing God" Beth Moore study. A lot different from her other ones, but I still learned so much! And I know my faith has grown since 10 weeks ago. Thank you Lord for not giving up on me! And a little side note...You know that question "If you could meet any famous person who would it be and why?" Well I have always hated that question. I don't know. I've never been in to current famous people. And I picture meeting someone like Abraham Lincoln like this "Uhh...hello Mr. President...sir...uummm...I'm Amy Amstutz...uhhh...nice to meet you...Good job freeing the slaves...umm...I think your beard fits you well....ummm..." But NOW! Now, I have someone! I would meet Beth Moore in a heartbeat! I know she would hate to consider herself "famous", but she still answers my question! And I would hug the living daylights out of her too. And not be embarrassed about it. Her passion and love for the Lord and his Word is amazing! Really, I didn't know that was possible before. Lord, give me a passion like hers!

Chloe is awake now, so my little list has to end. But thank you thank you thank you to my friend Kara who is keeping my munchkins for me this morning!
