Fantastic Life

God is so incredibly good to me and I don't know why.


 {Besides the fact that I'm His princess and He absolutely adores me...but ya know}


He gives me people in my life that are just SO. AWESOME. 


Susie and David Weigel {The parents}
I got to talk to my parents on Skype for about half an hour. What amazing people. I adore them. They drove out here with me, made sure I was settled in, and didn't make me cry when they left. They have raised me so well (If I do say so myself...hehe) and so I transitioned really well in being kinda dependent on them to totally independent with rent, groceries, etc. They are always so excited for me and want to know what's going on in my life all the time. Without them, I would never ever make it. 


Cici Mayberry {My seester} 
She constantly updates me on my adorable, perfect, amazing nephew and I love hearing him on the phone. Whenever I talk to her, she's so upbeat and I love hearing her stories and funniness. She left me for a year for college and now it's my turn to leave her...now she knows how I felt. Ha! She misses me more than she thought...:-p I love her. To death. (even if she does constantly harass my boyfriend on his choice of a football team) She's my seester minkey. And she most likely will be the only one to get that. 


Jordan {My boyfriend}
We are crazy and decided to date a week before I left. But he is incredible and always listens to me complain, contemplate what I just learned in my amazing school, and laugh over nothing. And he plays guitar for me over skype. And he's always interested in what's happening on my side of the world. And he has a gorgeous smile. Anyways, he really has made my move soo much easier (You'd think it'd be opposite right?) Even though I miss him so incredibly much, talking to him every day is so fantastic and we always have something to talk about. He gives me a little taste of home whenever I talk to him. And I kinda like him. Kinda. ;) 


Melissa Saffelo {Prettymuchthemostfreakingamazinggirlever}
My title says it. Not even lying. Melissa Saffelo makes my life so interesting and so purposeful. She is always encouraging me to go after my dream and will listen to me talk for hours on end (and can match me talking for hours on end...) No matter how long we go without talking to each other, we always start up right where we left off. She's incredible. And God has an amazing call on her life. She knows what I'm going through, being in Nashville; long distance relationship thang; and being completely in love with God.I love her to death. She is basically what you would call my sister. We're just that tight. (plus she's not friends with me because I'm omuhgaw Steve Weigels sister...she's friends with Steve because I'm his sister...;)) I. Love. Her. 


Naomi, Anna, Vickie {The craziest roommates ever}
When I say craziest roommates ever, I mean the most crazy awesome. Their joy and happiness has made this move soo much easier. They're in love with God. And they dance and sing in the kitchen. Truly, every girl needs roommates as crazy as her. They keep me in line, listen to me miss my boyfriend out loud, slap me when I get sappy, and love God. Truly incredible ladies. I am so blessed to have them in my life and our friendship is gonna be forever. I just know it. Aww...


Bethel Leaders, RGP, Bethel students {My big, crazy, sometimes foreign family}
Actually, until I talk to people from home, these are the people who make me completely forget I'm in another state. They are awesome. They are on fire, passionate, and hilarious. They keep you in line with love, and challenge you to the max! I love them. I will seriously never forget them...Sheri Downs, my revival group pastor, is insanely amazing. I love it that she challenges us all the time. I need it! I'm being taken outta my comfort zone and I'm so excited for it! And this is only like a month in..!!


 People who have made my transition from Minnesota to California easier, thank you! I know I missed people, I figured this blog was long enough. But... You. are. incredible. And that includes those of you who are praying! You amaze me!  Thank you, thank you, thank you for putting up with my ramblings. You always do (or I think you do...ha)
