Busy Bee

Can you say BUSY? Last Thursday evening, Friday, and Saturday I joined Jonathan in Atlanta for Booster University. Booster University is the company's fall semester kick-off that they have every August. It is filled with challenging speakers, worship, manly competition, and seminars on the vision/mission of Booster. This year they invited the wives & fiances to come for the last day. We were treated like royalty. Put up in hotels, valet parking, a women's luncheon, t-shirts, booster cookies, and best of all the guys were just SO genuinely thrilled to have their "Booster Lady" there to be apart of something that is so special to them, i.e. their jobs. How blessed we are to be apart of something so awesome. A job that's mission is Kingdom Building. I mean, is it even a "job"? ;) - - pictures to come.

We headed back to Charlotte after Booster University on Saturday and MOVED on Sunday. Jonathan's family & some good friends all rallied up to help us pack the U-Haul truck and move from our SouthPark apartment to our Matthews home. Can I just say that we barely got everything in the U-Haul truck (a really big one). We have WAY to much junk.. I'll be making a trip to Goodwill very soon.

We even had visitors stay with us on Sunday night - my dad, mom, and 2 cousin camped out in our box-filled home and went to the airport early the next morning.

Got up and went to work on Monday, Tuesday, and here I am on Wednesday.. ready for things to get back to normal.

On another note - this verse in my devo really challenged me this morning:
In Galatians 3:3, Paul asks the people this question: "Have you lost your senses? After starting your Christian lives in the Spirit, why are you now trying to become perfect by your own human effort?" (NLT)

Thanks again for letting us "crash" in your new house, saving us 4 hours in the car! I'm amazed how much you moved, unpacked and organized in one day!! LOVE your new place... I can see lots of little Settles playing in that backyard someday! :-)
