Rance and I headed east a couple of weekends ago and it was a sweet time with my family! Rance had not been to Nahunta since Christmas and I had only been once for a quick weekend trip so it was super fun that we go to spend a few days 'extra' there since Rance was on spring break at the time.
Father blessed me with some fun things and divine appointments while we were there for example:
- I ran into Holly, Mark & Scott while my mom and I were shopping at Sam's. This was a total divine appointment because my mom and I went to Sam's looking to buy LOTS of strawberries yet we left there empty handed. I am convinced the only reason we drove to Goldsboro to go to Sam's was simply to run into The Gentry family :) They have become super special people in my life over the last couple of years and Father recently blessed them through adopting that sweet baby boy in the picture below.
- I also was able to see my cousin Abigail and Oliva off to their prom. It was super fun and I usually miss random things like this so God was totally winking at me allowing me to see Abigail head off to her SENIOR prom and Olivia go to her first. These two sweet girls love Jesus so much and I could not be more excited about how they are constantly growing in their walk with Him. Plus, can I give a shout out to their MODESTY?? Thank you Jesus!

The reason we were heading east to begin with was because my family was throwing an engagement party for my Roozy (aka Dee). Dee and I met in 6th grade and were inseparable after that. We both headed to NC State after high school where we lived together for the next 9 years. Yep, I said 9 years. Freshman year in the dorm room is where the name Roozy came about :) Anyways, I thoroughly enjoyed the time with my family while we made this party come to life! It was a blast and Father gave us beautiful weather the entire day.
