it's funny how my trip home to Seattle really was not what I expected and not all the excitement and fun I had been planning on...to be honest it was pretty stressful...sprinkled in with moments of fun. I am very grateful for the time I did have with family and friends, but so wish there had been more...and time on the water and in the hills...oh well
I had to make the call when I got to Seattle if I was gonna drive back to Nashville since I am getting so many bites on my corolla that I am trying to sell (pray it sells soon). I made the call that it was wise to drive back now. But wait....who is riding back with me?! I didn't want it to be one of my parents cause I have always down major roadtrips with someone in the fam...I wanted it to be a friend. Well, needless to say that was not what God had in the cards....
and for that I am grateful!
This roadtrip has been a BLAST with my dad....talking, singing, and taking in all the sights!! It has been fun to explore and go picture crazy! I even got to see one of my besties from college who has always had my utmost respect. Robyn is so raw and real, killer athletic, incredible writer, and now a mother of 4! It was humbling to hear how she described me and how I was in college to my dad....I pray I am always seen and truly am that way!
Even though I did not get the rest I wanted and time to hide out in my fave spots at Alki Beach to seek God on a few different areas of life...be quiet before Him. He had other plans...and as much as I am exhausted...and pretty well drained...I am thankful for this time and the memories that are being made and the BEAUTY that I have gotten to see as I drive through the country.
