Spring in the City

Well well I must say you need to pull up a chair and check out what has been going on in my life since the last time we spoke. Lets see a random snow on an April day, our church’s grand opening (Now in 5 locations) some LONG OVERDUE visitors (mom and mike) Easter Sunday, a glorious weekend in the park where I turned three shades darker from getting a tan, and the most beautiful springtime weather in New York. Does it really get much better than this?

Work is still going really well, as we are gearing up for our final shoot at the end of this month. Very exciting and cant wait to see it all come together. I recently took an outing with some co-workers the circus was in town and yes… we went. It was the most fun I have had in awhile. My parents used to take me when Ringling Brothers would roll through town back home, I must say lots has changed from the traditional three ring circus! I think I enjoyed this one more than I did when I was younger. I enjoyed it more than the kids that were there.

As when any visitor comes in town I do the tourist thing. So when Mom and Mike were here, the itinerary was the usually running roaming and rambling all across the city. I think I wore them out by the end of the trip. I know they enjoyed it. I have posted some pictures, below. My Step-mom and Dad are coming at the end of this month.

This time of year in the city, more specifically central park is AMAZING! EVERYTHING is in bloom, the breeze sends in the scent of sweet blossoms sprouting and emerging with color from the lush green grass of the Great Lawn and Sheep’s Meadow. It makes me think of the paint pallet God uses when creating such a picturesque landscape. So thankful to be able to enjoy it.

I must say a huge THANKS to all of you for your encouraging words in light of the break-up. I can tell you I am doing fine and am so blessed to have a clearer sense of direction that God has on my life and how he has fixated my feet along the path to see what he has planned for me.

Been getting some new recipes from work and have tested, (and failed) but executed many with success. Success at least I think because the pots were emptied and no left over’s… so I say it was good?

I am sure I will be posting within the next week or so as my sister Jeanine is past due with Baby Hudson and we are anxiously but patiently waiting for his arrival. I can’t wait for the day when I get to meet him in person. I know Jeanine and Josh are going to make great parents and am so happy for and proud of them.

Until then,
Peace, Love and NYC - Dillon
