Quick update

Time is sure going by fast. So here is a quick update:
Friday, July 4th we (Scott, his parents and me) went to Lewis, KS for a wedding.
Saturday we attended the outside wedding, yes, I said outside. It was a beautiful wedding. It was on a farm, but it was 100 degrees. I will attach pictures once we have them uploaded.
Sunday we came back to KC. We went to a get together with some of Scott's friends.
Today it was back to work.
I will writer more later when I have more time! Have a great week. I hope you all had a safe and good 4th of July.

The Honig House

For those of you who have not been able to visit us, here is our home. Please stop by and see us!
We got our house painted one week before we got married. We just got the new front door. I think the new paint makes the house look bigger and makes it look "fresh". And I added a woman's touch with the flowers.

Waubonsie friends...do these chairs look familiar?

Mom here is the flower I was looking for!

Another Weekend Down

Our weekends go so fast. I can't believe it is Sunday night at 9:30! We had a great weekend. We got a lot done around the house. Of course not as much as you think you will. We had a great time at the Board of Christian Care Picnic. Everyone wants my recipes...so the food was great! We are just trying to prepare for another week of work. At least it is a 4 day week! I hope you all have a great week and a safe and happy 4th of July.
We are going to a wedding in Lewis, KS over the July 4th weekend. So that is why I made pillows so we can sleep on the way. We are going to Topeka and riding with Scott's parents. It will be nice to get away and see family and friends.

In Him,

Clearance is my middle name

As most of you know I love great deals. Well today was my day. I went to Hy-Vee to get groceries (the dreaded job) and as I was walking in I saw all their plant were on sale. I got a hibiscus bush for $10. This is a steal. It is a peach color. I need to re-pot it. Then I will take a picture to share. It is amazing how the small things in life tickle us pink.

I am officially a Missouri resident and officially Rachel Kay Honig. I got my social security card and got my driver's license in Missouri. But not matter what I will still always be Rachel Robberts with 2 b's to most of you.

The week went by pretty fast. I started my new job. There were a few surprises with the job as for what my role is, but I think it will be a great fit for me. I so miss my co-workers from KUMC and Waubonsie. You all have made an impact on my life.

Today we did things around the house. Time flies when you are cleaning and organizing things. Sunday the Board of Christian Care that Scott is Chairman of is having a picnic. I spent some of today preparing for it. Allison I am making you cornbread salad. I also made scotcharoos and another salad. We are also bringing paper items left over from our wedding.

I am now going to try to make some traveling pillows for us. We will be out of town next weekend.

New Job

Well I am on my 2nd day of work for Three Rivers Hospice. The first day it was hard to judge how it would be, since all we did was orientation (paper work). The staff seems very nice. Amy (the social worker) is fabulous. I am going to enjoy working with her. She also sells Creative Memories (us scrapbookers need to stick together). In many ways this agency reminds me of Waubonsie Mental Health Center where I worked in Iowa. I loved my job there, so this is a good thing. I have been in Platte City for my orientation this week. After this week I will be in Blue Springs. Which I am looking forward to the much shorter commute.

Dreams come true

I know you are all probably tired of viewing honeymoon and wedding pictures. But this picture is my favorite picture from our trip. Disney has a new program where they have photographers taking picture of people throughout the parks. You get a "photo pass" which is like a credit card. They take your picture and slide your card through. Then you can purchase all your pics and get them on a CD. You can also add graphics, like we did to the one below!

Getting ready for last day of work

June 20th will be my last day at The University of Kansas Hospital as the Ryan White Medical Case Manager. I have learned at lot while working there for 1 year 1 month and 13 days. I have made some great friends and will miss seeing them daily. I have enjoyed learning about the medical side of social work. It has also been an expereince to work in such a big organization.
June 23 I start my job with Three Rivers Hospice. I am excited to expereince this journey. I pray that I will catch on fast and provide the support that is needed from a hospice social worker.
