Texas Summer

Well, the summer came and went so quickly I can hardly believe it. I spent 5 weeks in Texas catching up with friends and family and WOW I fit a lot into that time. A few weeks in Arlington, mission week in Tyler, 2 trips to Austin to visit Scott, poolside girl talk, brunches, dinners, running on real trails, dancing, fireworks and so much more. One of the biggest things I've learned living in Africa is that relationships are really what it's all about. Investing in people and just living life together. Possessions are temporary but people, they can leave a lasting imprint. I'm so thankful for the time I got to spend with everyone at home. It was truly refreshing for my soul.
