God is so good, He's so good to me.

It's November 19th and I realize I've been gone from the blog world for over a month, but I've just been so busy being a newlywed. I have so much to tell so let me just get to it. God has done so much for Samuel and me, Let's start with my job search. I had been looking for a job for 2 months with no leads. I had told God that if I didn't find a job by the first of November I would stop looking for a job and take that as a sign to go back to school full time. Well November 1st came around but stubborn little me kept looking for a job. Church rolled around on Sunday and the sermon touched me. God was speaking to me so loud and clear, the speaker was preaching about how wasting wisdom that God has given you is a sin, and that we are privileged to be living in a country where we have more privileges that some of our parents had. WOW. Never has God spoken more clearly to me. Even thought I was still a little hesitant, the next day I posted on my facebook that I would be returning to school full time in the spring, no excuses, yet I still, just to make sure, asked God for just one more sign, so I would be "really sure". No joke, the next day, my friend messaged me on facebook that she had a dream Saturday night that she saw me at school and I was so excited to be there, she woke up, and I'm not even making this up, and told her sister "Maybe that's why Yvonne hasn't found a job, because God wants her to go to school." Can I get a praise God? God is so so so so so good! He knows exactly what we need. He has this perfect plan and sometimes we are just too stubborn to stop and listen to Him. To finish this part off, I have already applied and been accepted to a community college in my area. Can't wait!
After I applied to college, we got a substantial amount of money deposited into our bank account. Samuel called to ask me if I was expecting money...Nooo. Turns out we were being reimbursed for moving our things ourselves. Can I get a praise God again?!!
Guess what y'all?!?!!! I got my Christmas present early, everyone meet Liberty Ann Harris.


She is the absolute cutest! We have only had her for a week and she already thinks she owns the place. I don't feel lonely when she's around. She is so nosey and has to know what everyone is doing all the time. She follows me EVERYWHERE! and I love it. She is 2 months old and only weighs 1lb 5oz, so we had to put a little bell on her so we can let her explore without losing her. She hates that bell but I think she is adorable with it on.
Moving on. Thanksgiving is now less than a week away and I can't wait see my family! This year I'm making the green bean casserole for dinner AND I'm going to make these delicious green bean bundles my friend Chelsey posted the recipe for on her blog! I'm so excited to share something new with them!
Any who, I should get ready to go out, the toysrus doorbuster sale starts at 3 and I have to be there to get some Christmas presents! Talk to you soon, I promise! XOXO
