Packing!

So I'm currently in the midst of packing for our trip to New York tomorrow! I can't believe how fast time flies. But I'm really looking forward to this visit. Staying with Joanne and being away from the day to day routine at home will be a nice change for a bit. It was absolutely the Lord who made this trip possible with school and everything and the timing couldn't be any more perfect. I'm so thankful.

My hope for this trip is to get closer to the Lord. I've realized there are a lot of changes I have to make in my spiritual life and I haven't been walking with Him as closely as I should be. So I am planning to wake up early each morning, get all bundled up in a blanket, and grab a cup of tea for Bible reading and meditation in my pj's on the porch. God has been so good to me through providing for this trip and it is up to me to make it worth while.

We have so many fun things planned too! Joanne has some days off and during that time we are going to visit The Whistling Kettle for lunch and afternoon tea, go to Bennington Pottery, and drive through Manchester. Also, I hope that while we are in Manchester we have tea or coffee at the Equinox...that would be such a treat. And! Since we'll get back in time for dinner each night, I am going to blog every night about our days, pictures and all. That way, it can be a little journal of the adventures.

I know I have to work on school work when I'm there, but I'm trying not to stress and I'm giving it to the Lord and trusting Him that I will have enough time for work and play.

Okay, so back to packing...
