NYC/PA

MATT AND I got to go to NYC for Thanksgiving! I am so thankful that he was able to come with! On our way to Omaha on Wed. night our car broke down in Sioux Falls. Thankfully God was watching over us and Tires Plus was a huge help and helped us out! We flew into Newark on Thursday(11/22) and my dad picked us up and brought us to my cousin Kay's house! We had Thanksgiving Dinner and just relaxed!! Friday we woke up and took the train(LIRR) into the city! We took a taxi to Rockefeller Center since Matt was not feeling the best. We first hit up Rockefeller Center to go to Top of the Rock. It was a beautiful site to see the skyline of NYC! After that we went to Grand Central Station-had to see it! Then we walked to the UN Building, Matt really liked this stop! We then went to Time Square because it was getting dark, it was awesome to see all the shops lite up! So pretty! Then we did the NBC Studios Tour which was a blast! We had an awesome day! Saturday we were going to go to the World Trade Center Memorial but Matt's fever got worse 103.1F. We tried to get him to go to urgent care but when we got there, there was quite a line and he didn't want to wait. So we started our 6hr drive to PA. 

Sunday we went to Grammy for the afternoon to watch football, take naps, and have a nice family dinner. After dinner we play the famous game of Dutch Blitz! It was so nice to be around family again! Monday we started our 6hr journey back to NJ stopping at Rita's in Belfonte and got to see the whole Purnell family! Monday we went to the mall to see dad at work and ate at The Cheesecake Factory after. It was very good. Tuesday we were suppose to fly out but our flight got cancelled so we had breakfast at IHOP then dad went to work so we just hung out and watched tv all day at the hotel! We then took him for supper at Longhorn Stakehouse. We were able to get on our flight on Wednesday morning and make the long drive home! We were in cars a lot! 

All in all it was a great vacation!

These last two weeks have been the best weeks in a long time for Matt & I. We have so much going the way we want it to right now we are just so thankful! We have got to have lots of family time and will have more this weekend! I just can not stop praising God for everything he has done for us. Prayers are getting answered. Last week I bought a ticket to see some friends in Denver,15 days away! && in 28 days we get to go to NYC to visit my dad then drive down to PA to see my mom and the rest of the family! So grateful! 

Sometimes things might not seem like they are going the way you want them to, but just give it time and pray! God does answer prayers!! 

Also, we love the Church we are going to and that helps a lot! We aren't just going to Church to say we are going, we love the worship and message, growing with God and each other. And I am now teaching Children's Church every other week! I find it really important everyone finds a Church they feel comfortable in and has the same beliefs, something where you are LOVING going and not dreading it, and WORSHIPING God, not just a Church that works for them. --Everything you have, God has provided for you, praise him for that!--
