So much has happened since my last blog. I wouldn't even know where to begin to sum it up, but the Lord has been so faithful. I can not believe the season is already nearing close to it's end and that we are approaching August in just a couple days.
Daniel hit a milestone is his career last night and stole his 50th base of the season (Praise God!). He continues to show production on the field and stay healthy and we are so grateful. We know God is in control of everything and that our future lays in His hands. More then anything though, it has been a complete blessing to be able to watch Daniel do what he loves free of injury. As you all know, he has faced injuries in the past so this season has been extra special. It has also been extra special because Daniel's home field is only 50 minutes from our hometown. Daniel's team ends a 3 game series tonight in Inland Empire, which is only 15 minutes from our hometown of Moreno Valley, so it's been alot of fun to have so much love and support at the games.
Outside of what's been happening 'on' the field, our living situation has changed due to lots of movements on the team. This happens quite often in baseball because there is constant movement throughout the season. We were caught off guard in June when one of our roommates was sent down and the other two decided to move out into another house that had lost players. It all happened the day before rent was due, so my immediate reaction was panic and feeling overwhelmed, but the Lord always works things out for the best and it ended up being a total blessing for Daniel and I to have our own space the last month.
Another couple on the team was faced with the same situation when their roomates moved out last month and we decided in August that we would all move in together to cut cost down. So as of today, Jose and his wife Neyeska are now our new roommates. They are from Venezuela and speak little English, so I will hopefully be forced to use/practice my Spanish more often now. Daniel is almost fluent, so I'm sure he can be the translator if I don't know what I am saying. I am interested and looking forward to seeing how our different cultures mix and eating lots of Latin food. God is faithful always and I am so thankful for His provision over our lives.
