We're a Married Couple Now!!

Admittedly, we have been terrible at posting. About two months have gone by, and so much change has taken place. As of Saturday June 7, 2008, we are Mr. and Mrs. Seth and Sarah Middlebrook, and enjoying it to the fullest! The wedding was absolutely wonderful, and we feel we have nothing to complain about. It was such a great blessing to see all you friends and family who were able to be there (even some surprise visitors like my uncle and aunt from Georgia!) Once we get internet at our apartment, a plethera of pictures will be added.
The honeymoon was in Cambria, Ca, a truly amazing seaside town. It was relaxing as ever and full of wonderful scenery and animals (including zebras!--we will post a separate message telling how that is possible). 10 days of the most relaxing we have done in who knows how long, and we enter the stage of real life in Simi Valley, Ca.
The next part of this Readers' Digest story is that of our apartment. We cannot begin to describe how wonderfully blessed we have been since moving to Simi Valley. We opened the door to our new apartment (after driving 4 hours from Cambria and in 100+ degree weather) to see our home almost completely furnished with items people from our new church family had donated, including a brand new bed! God has definitely used this church to bless us over and abundantly, and it reminds us that Simi Valley is where God wants us right now.
You are also reading the blog of newly installed youth pastors. We are in the thick of learning how to be youth pastors, planning weekly meetings, a calender for the rest of the year and summer camp...we hit the ground running! We are excited to be in this position of ministry and know that it is only by God that this is even possible for us. Already, the kids have been a huge blessing to us.
And so, as we adjust to the newness of life, we will try to keep you all as updated as possible. This will probably be the most detailed place to find our updates, because it is so accessible to everyone. So keep checking, and we'll get better at regular postings.
Love you all, The New Seth and Sarah Middlebrook
