What's this about?

I am Shannon and my husband is Chris. This is a place to share and process struggles related to miscarriages, eating disorders, and Shannon's struggle with sexual abuse. We have found that joy, exempt of Christ, is often bittersweet in this life. We look forward to heaven where sweetness will abound and bitterness will be gone.

Time together

So here's my life update. I had a really awesome time on Friday night with my husband. We baked and frosted a cake to take to lunch with my sister-in-law and her fiance on Saturday. They had asked us to bring dessert. We had a good time baking, frosting, and sprinkling. Not that sprinkling is a word but well, you know! We watched our Netflix DVD of Bones....which was awesome! I worked on our Christmas letter and am super excited by how early I got it done! It was a really good Friday night.

Saturday we went to Max's home to have lunch with him and Heather. The double date atmosphere was super fun. We talked about wedding things and Max and Chris enjoyed Max's NERF gun which was awesome fun-tastic. I said to Heather while we were doing dishes after lunch that I liked being a grown-up with her now being a grown-up! It was neat though. This adulthood thing is still evolving and changing and growing even though I'm twenty-five. It's just so different to be in control over your own life than to rely on my parents. Not that I don't love our parents because I do! But it's just different and good. We had a great time. Then we went to a thrift store and found a couple of things we liked to help decorate our kitchen a little more. That was super exciting too!

So that was our time together that was much needed. Saturday night was a bit of an adventure though....so that will be in the next post.
