Today was my last day at Tustin Ranch Golf Club. I have been a Special Events Manager there for the past 21 months. It feels just like yesterday that I toured my first bride & groom for their “potential” wedding venue. Now, dozens of weddings, anniversary parties, Sunday brunches and Sweet 16's later I drove out of the driveway today on my way home with such a peace and appreciation in my heart.
I love how God uses seasons of life to shape and mold us. Whether seasons of pain or seasons of joy or even just seasons of apathy. I am so grateful for my time at Tustin Ranch for it was the season here that led me to the World Race.
I am grateful for the friendships that developed and the wisdom learned from these friendships. (Who knew golf pros could be so deep?) Lol
As much as I joke about OC bridezillas, being an event planner and taking part of people’s momentous life celebrations has been very eye opening. From organizing a ceremonial Korean 1st birthday party to consoling a wife while she made the final payment on her husband celebration of life service there is a lot that can be learned about life, family, honor, priorities and love.
I am grateful for the season I am exiting for it has only prepared me that much more for the season ahead. Which, by the way, has it's official launch in 30 days! CRAZY
Now for a month of concentrated preparation and good-byes.
Let the countdown begin…
