I try to update my blog about once every nine months or so. I figure that at this rate, I can realistically announce at random that Meg and I have had a child without ever previously announcing that she is pregnant. Granted, neither of these things are true, but I could, if it were the case, make said announcement. Anyways...

Meg and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary in July. We went to see the Format in concert for our anniversary. As if you needed further proof, I think it shows that I have the world's greatest wife.

September is here and another school year has begun. This means that Meg is back at work every day, and waking up at 5:30am. It also means that I am back at the church more frequently. However, this has been nice. Who knows, they may even decide to make my job there full-time, but I am not holding my breath. I was really pleased to have such an awesome retreat with our leadership team and I am looking forward to what God has in store for this fall at Fusion.

Meg and I traveled to South Carolina last weekend to celebrate my Dad's 50th birthday, and it was a great time. We even stopped to spend an evening in Savannah on the way home. We love Savannah, and have decided to return for Meg's 24th Birthday.

Other than all that, life has been relatively uneventful. It has been good, even great! However, this has really been the norm for me, so it isn't anything to write home about. Although, it does raise an interesting thought. My life is great, but it's consistency makes me take the greatness for granted. This in mind, what will heaven be like? More importantly, how Awesome is God that his presence forever occupies every thought and attention of the angels for all of eternity? Pretty crazy, right.

God Bless,
Rob
