Haha, it’s been a while since my last post! Now I’m posting as Mrs. Olson Married life is wonderful!!! So far, we have painted the kitchen and our bedroom (last night we stayed up to paint our bedroom, put together our new bed and 2 “dressers” they’re kinda like mini-dressers - they fit perfectly in the space) We are both very excited about our new home, and slowly it is becoming “our” home. Oh! We got a really good deal on a KitchenAid mixer, of all the things I wanted in our home a KitchenAid mixer was WAY up there on the list! We had waited, and waited - not exactly sure why (heh) AND on a whim after taking care of all of Buddy’s (Mom and Dad O’s - really Kristy’s dog) information to fly him to Hong Kong, we decided to go to the Coast (yes the “Coast” not the “beach” or the “shore” - if you’ve been out on the West Coast you understand there is not as much beach as rocky coastal area.) Out by the coast there is an outlet mall with a Kitchen Collection store, the mixer was on sale on top of on sale - We got a nicer mixer than we expected to get at a cheaper price then the cheaper mixer!! Praise the Lord! He is so good to us, I don’t even understand that. So many times I think “Lord, why are you so good to me (us)? I don’t even serve you adequately. I know I could do more, I want to do more, but so often I fail - Why would you bless me anyway?”…..Mind boggling. He is worthy to be praised!! Praise be to the name of the Lord!! What a good God. Again I am reminded of a much earlier post as I reflect on my failure to praise our AWESOME, POWERFUL, MAJESTIC, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS CREATOR AND GOD as I ought! He is SOO good!! He does everything for our good and His Glory - How often I fail to see my Majestic Creator’s Mighty hand in my life. Praise be the name of the Lord.

Here are some pictures of our mixer AND our HOUSE!! I can’t wait to get some of the new bedroom pictures up! We are very excited about the way that turned out
