Quick review and update...

Alright, so after going to bed at about 7 yesterday morning, got to sleep until 11:30. I got up at that point to get ready to go to JK and Chrisitna's wedding at church. The service started at 1 and we got there in plenty of time. The ceremony itself was somewhat shorter than normal for a wedding there; it only went an hour. It was very nicely decorated with a fall theme, and it seemed that everything went quite smoothly. After the service, the reception was held in the basement and it was very fitting in decorations with that which was upstairs too. (Obviously there was a lot of planning ahead of time!) Now they are happily married and you could pray that God will work through them now as a couple to further his kingdom around the world.
When I got home from the reception at about 6 p.m., I began to pull some things together for the hiking trip that Eric and I are leaving for this afternoon. I finally got everything packed (my backpack is significantly heavier than when I was at ALERT, why, I don't know) and then went to bed.
So, this hiking trip..... We will leave this afternoon and drive to our destination - a trail or park in Southern Indiana (Eric was the one choosing the location so I don't know where we'll be yet :-). After hiking a little while to wherever we will have our campsite, we will set up camp and spend the night. In the morning, we will eat (of course!) and then leave our camp and hike around on Monday, spending time with each other, alone with God and in prayer etc... I hope God can use this time to help grow me to be more consistent with reading the Scriptures daily. Monday night we will hike back to our tent and spend the night there. Tuesday morning, we will eat, break camp and hike back to the car. We will then drive home and that will be the end of our wonderful hiking trip. :-)

Please pray for:
Good weather - no rain and good temperature as well.
Safety - in driving and as we hike.
Wonderful growth both between us and God.
