Wow! Had an amazing time at the party last night! Wonderful people – warm and welcoming and a group that truly loves and cares about each other. I see now why Mark so loves his job – great colleagues! God did amazing things with conversations and just a sense of relaxation and fun for all. Everyone stayed til nearly 11:30 last night and still didn’t want to leave with they did! Praising God for an amazing night with incredible people and thankful to be able to get to know the faces and personalities that go with the names that Mark has told me about all along. Had opportunities to share my faith one on one with a couple people. And laughed. And laughed. And laughed. It was so much fun!!! God did a lot of good things last night and both Mark and I went to bed with a big old smile on our faces….and I think everyone left with one of their own as well! (Bonus – several of them asked if I could come and consult on decorating their homes. Oh, heck yeah!) Thankful for this week that has been filled with parties, people and new opportunities for friendships and deeper connections. Really, really good stuff! And yes, I am utterly exhausted! Not hosting any more parties until next Wednesday when Abby has her work party here. Welcome, Starbucks!!!
