July 2023

It took me this long to recover from July and find time to post about it. Record breaking amounts of miracles, things accomplished, transitions, services done, and celebrations in July 2023. "Everything happened at once" month is what we called it. Definitely was supported by God, I felt like a machine and I'm not that functional so it had to have been God giving me strength! I did not take any days off work in July, this was all done around my regular work schedule, and work was CRAZY this month. Also a blessed month. We count ourselves lucky to have so many people we love and celebrate and serve.

Bullet points is all you get for "everything happened at once" month. The pictures will take all the time and space.
