A lot has been happening in my life, but at the same time, I don't feel very inspired to write. I felt as though I should because it's been so long since I last published a blog.

Life is Austin is ... going. I've had my struggles here and there with adjusting to being back, but a great friend just gave me beautiful advice last night. I have a positive outlook on things today - I know there are adjustments that must be made in my life. I'm ready to take the necessary actions to make those changes. There are a couple of God things that I am really unsure of; I need to turn them completely over to Him because I just don't know what I need to do with them.

Dustyn and I celebrated our five year anniversary last weekend. It's incredible being married to someone who has so much love for me. We spent our anniversary moving my brother to Lubbock for school, and I had several heart-to-hearts with my mom over the weekend. My parents absolutely adore my husband, and I'm so thankful they appreciate and respect him as much as I do. I realize that no matter where God takes us, as long as I have him, we're good to go. It has been Dustyn that's really brought me up from some sad times. He keeps me strong -he sees the love, the positive, the good in all situations. Sometimes, I admit, that drives me a little crazy because I want him to see my point of view in a tough situation, but the majority of the time, he pulls me out of my funk and really makes things better.

I had so much joy watching Dustyn and his two brothers play in a softball tournament together yesterday. I think the three guys were pretty awesome together. Donnie and Valla spent the day watching the tournament in the blasted, 100+ degree heat too. It was just as meaningful to them to see the boys participate in a sport together. Dentyn is younger than Dustyn and Derryk by several years, so this was the very first time they've ever played in a sport together. I'm a proud wife - very proud to be able to say that the Blasig boys and their teammates were able to bring their A-game and win the championship.

Ok, well, I kind of feel like I'm talking about random things, so I'm going to take off. There are a couple of big, life decisions coming up for us, so I ask that you pray for us to make the right decisions.
