Well we went the Sunday School felloship last night. Had a lot of fun, talking to the other ladies and Jordan had tons of fun playing with the associate pastor's son. Grace and Jamie, I have no clue. The ladies were nice and talking to me, kept hearing the famous questions "How long have you been here?" "Where are you from?" "What brought you here to Fargo?" and I have to answer these questions like 5xs last night and answer with a smile. Only problem I had was that I felt out of place and out of my comfort zone.


1. Most of you know that I LOVE my jeans and I wore jeans going to church. Here, this church is conservative and most of the ladies here wear skirts all the time. Sometime I feel like I am bacj at the Bubble. Which I guess is not bad, but still it is different here. Well, I go to this fellowship last night in jeans and in my UK Wildcat shirt. The ladies that show up, are in their skirts and nice PLAIN CASUAL shirts. I am in my KENTUCKY BLUE with UK WILDCATS in blue and white polka dots. Their little girls are also in skirts too, mine is in jeans. It is just different here. Jamie said he is not changing who he has been, the sad thing is he does not have to. He can show up to church and functions in anything he wants to wear, because he is a guy. Me?? I am still going to wear my jeans, when I go to other people's houses but when I am at church and at the functions at the church I will be in skirts. It is easy for the guys, because they are in jeans. Not soo easy for the women.

2. People here are friendly and nice, kinda has the southern feel in a northern state. But here they are really not northern. They are a mix between the western and Canadian, and somehow they have that southern feel. Also, kinda weird...but people take their shoes off, when they enter into someone else's home!! So not use to that LOL But I have had a few people show up at my house taking their shoes off. Even the people who install like the cable and internet take their shoes off before they come inside. Really weird!!! Only thing I can think of is because the way the winters are here, that they take their shoes off to not track in the snow and they just get into that habit through out the rest of the year.

God writing that last sentence on the chapter of my life

I am a firm believer that when God closes one door, He always opens another door. It hit me last night in bed, that God has officially closed the door on Oklahoma on me. It is sooo sad, when you think of it. But it is not! It is time for me to move on. I cannot keep hoping that one day soon, I would be back in Oklahoma. Even if we did go back, it would not be the same before we had left. I am starting to see who people truly are, don't know if they were always like this and I had a wool over my eyes. But I just know it would not be the same!
I went to a Moms and More meeting last night and enjoyed myself thoroughly. Those of you who are familiar with the MOPS group, it is kinda like that but for every stage of Motherhood and there is no registration you have to pay for. I had fun laughing and being able to talk to people there. The last one I was the shy girl and this one I was kinda talkative...LOL But I had 2 ladies who were sitting on the either side of me, and they are my age and they had me laughing all night. Almost reminded me of college days!! They both have kids around my kids' s ages and all 3 of us just moved here and we are wondering why God moved us here!! But I had so much fun there and that is always a plus.
It is just amazing when God closes that door, and opens the next door on how you feel. This church is huge so it won't be like any other churches I have left, but there are people there who are really nice. And I think when closes the door on this life, leaving church won't be as bad because I won't know everyone in the church but it will still hurt though whenever I leave. Just the way Jamie's job, they say "go" and we say "okay". Funny thing is Arizona opens up 2 MONTHS AFTER WE LEAVE. Two months and a wamer place opens!!!! So there is deffinately a reason why God moved us to the North Pole!! I have no clue why, but we are in the North Pole and time for the Princess of a King, tell Him "okay, I am here and waiting".

church searching is over

Well pretty much church searching is over. The very 1st church we went to when Jamie's parents were here, is the one we will be going to. Granted it is still HUGE but it is starting to grow on me. Have you been gone from a church for awhile, and when you get back you breathe a sigh of relief because you are ''home"? That is the way I felt yesterday! We have not been to church in over a week and a half because the kids were sick. We had missed 4 services but were able to go back yesterday. It felt like eons since the last time we were there but it was good to be back. I have made some friends there and it was good to see them! I am really praying that I can go tomorrow night to the MOMS AND MORE MEETING. I had sooo much fun the last time I was there and I am really hoping I get to go again!!!!!

Anyways, just thought I would update this because I know people have been asking on churches and what we have decided on. We have not joined there for people in Oklahoma wondering. We have now been up here for 2 months! Still cannot believe it has been 2 months!!! I do miss Oklahoma but for some reason God wanted us up here at this time in our lives!
