Adventure called life!!!!

Well today was awesome!!!! We are back in Namwianga now!!!! I think I have gotten the most awesome souvenirs ever!!! I bought a painting today for my office! The painting is of an elephant and the sun is setting the background! I am going to frame it and when I hang it in my office (at Russell’s house), I will think of Africa and the great experience I had here!

I am glad to have taken this trip before I got married! I feel that I needed to travel on my own and have my own adventure and I did! Now Russell and I can start our adventure together and that’s going to be a blast! This next year I realize is going to go so fast and be hectic with planning a wedding and going to school, but I was thinking today about how exciting it really is that the next stage of my life is starting! So really Africa is the end of my adventure alone and I get to start my adventures with Russell and I can’t wait!!!! For those of you who don’t know Russell has been so supportive the entire time I have known him! He supported me when I took my full time job in Connecticut and moved away from him back in 2009. He supports me with school, and even helps me with my projects, and studying!!!! He supports me when I have vehicle issues!!!! He supported me when I decided to come on this trip and I just wanted to take the time to thank him for being that way and believing in me! I couldn’t have found a better man than him!!!!! And Russell I am sooooo excited to be on this adventure called life with you, I wouldn’t want to share it with anyone else! Just know that you mean the world to me, and when no one else loves you, know that I do and Jesus does too!!!! Life isn’t perfect and I know I am surely not but I hope when life gets tough for us that we hold onto each other and ford the river! I can’t wait to fill the pages of albums with the adventures that we will have together!!! It really is exciting!!!! You are my best friend and I miss you so very much and can’t wait to see you when I get home!!! God is so wonderful Russell!!!! Love to you Russell, and love to all!!!!
