Summer




It is officially summer! I have been blessed to travel with Jordan as early as April, so for me it has felt like summer for some time now. Currently, Jordan is finishing some work in Beirut and then he is heading back to Cairo before joining me in the states.

We did find an apartment in Cairo. We had to completely furnish the place including the lights and all the appliances. I still don't have kitchen cabinets yet or any decoration that makes it look like a home that is lived in, but it will soon! The place has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a big open living room, and 4 balconies!! The white walls and floor tile make it feel a little like a hospital, but when we get back in July, Jordan and I will attempt to put a splash of color on the walls!

We look forward to a summer full of visiting friends and family back and forth between Tulsa and Dallas. This will be my first 4th of July in Tulsa with Jordan's HUGE family and I can't wait. It is my favorite holiday and this one will be special (first one married). Speaking of marriage, it will soon be our one year anniversary on July 26~I would do it all again in a heartbeat! I also have lots of friends getting married this summer and feel overwhelmingly blessed to attend. Anna and Mark Gronotte and Christina and Travis Hyde just to name a few!

Cheers to summer!
