Cinnamon rolls are a love of mine, even though they are so not good for me!! I have only watched people make them and helped, never done it myself. I decided I wanted to tackle them myself. So, on Tuesday morning I went over to a family friends house who is an excellent cinnamon roll maker. She even won a ribbon at the state fair. I really enjoyed my time with her and she is so full of wisdom. The rolls turned out so yummy! I ate way too many!
Anyways, today I decided to give them a try on my own. Joan made it seem so easy!! I think I did alright, the last pan just came out of the oven. I have yet to taste them and even if they flop, practice makes perfect!!
I am just hanging out at my parents still, missing Derek.
I am excited though because my mom, sister and I are going to the Chris Tomlin concert tomorrow night!! It will be fun to have some girl time, but it means waiting another day to see my husband. Sad, but it will be ok.
I will just have to spend all Saturday and Sunday with him:)

Not too good at this!
I have yet to even tell people that I started this blog, maybe that should be my first step.....
Anyways, I haven't updated this because life is boring at this moment in time. Derek has been out of time since Jan. 14 and will be out of town until Feb. 6th! He does get to come home for the weekends, but it makes for some very lonely weeks. I have actually come down to my parents to hang out with them all week. Makes it feel like I am single though, sad!
It has been great to have this quality time with them. I sure am blessed to have such great parents!! Mom and I have been knitting away, we are making a blanket for my cousin's wife who is pregnant and due on the 30th.
I am still waiting to hear on a job, the Lord is continuing to teach me many many lessons! I am just relying on Him and His timing! But prayers would be appreciated right now. Thankfully I have such an amazing and supportive husband! If only he would let us have a baby and then I could be a stay at home Mom and not have to worry about a job:)
One can dream!!
Have a great and cold weekend:)

New Blog!
I have loved reading other peoples blogs for so long and I finally decided it was time to me to have my own. Who knows how exciting it will be, but that is ok! I just want to keep people updated on our lives and this seems to be the best way to do it!! Life is great! We are loving married life; we got married on April 26. Time is just flying by! Before we know it, we will have been married a year. I have loved everyday of this new adventure and I am blessed to have Derek as my husband. We bought a house last March and it has been fun making it our home. I have many projects I want to do, and they will happen in time. I am currently looking for a nursing job and Derek is a CPA downtown Des Moines. The Lord has definitely blessed us greatly and we would be nothing without Him. Hope you are all doing well! Enjoy this new year:)
