SO like, WOw it has totally been like forever since I updated.  Noone except Lyndee really seemed to miss me anyway! Life has been well crazy this summer. Working at the church, starting classes in Decatur, directing camp, VBS and oh so much more.  and the usual fun stuff that summer brings.  Taking care of the puppy and helping her grow.  She is getting so big.  28 pounds at the vet 3 days ago.  BUt she is so stinkin cute! 

Leaving for vacation to Colorado tom. morning.  It is going to be amazing.  The whole week will start off awesome as we see David crowder chris tomlin and louie giglion on Sunday night. Ahhh can't wait.  My little bro loves David Crowder but has never seen him live, he is so excited.  Jim and I totally need some down time together. 

THis fall is going to be crazy busy and packed to the max with all the stuff going on in our lives.  But I know it is all what God wants us to be doing so I don't feel guilty.  I am having to learn how to say no to things I may want to do because of the commitments and priorities right now with school and ministries I am involved in.  

 I will try to update some new puppy pictures and Colorado pictures when we get home. 

Shout out to my Lyndee in SOuth Africa!  I miss you bunches and start to tear up just thinking about when you get to come home in a year and a half!  Already looking forward to Xochi, movies, Chinese, and just finally getting to see my Lyndee's smiling face.  Praying for ya!

She's Home!!!

We Welcomed Lily home on Friday night at 8 pm!  Her aunt's Kara and Mara were there to help welcome here!  (Thanks for the help and fun lady's)  She has had no accidents in the house yet,and she is so precious.  We took her to Petsmart yesterday to pick out her new toys, treats brush and made her tags.  She was so scared.  but she just sat in the cart curled up on my sweatshirt and people ooed over her!  She liked that part! 

We had a scare for a few hours.  She really wasn't eating since we brought her home.  Last night we were getting really worried.  We tried every thing Mara said to do.  THen finally Jim and I sat on the floor with her and she ate and ate!  Even the stuff she hadn't eaten before.  We were so excited.  Well it is off for now.  Tomorrow we will find a vet for her and make an appoinment to get her shots and her claws trimmed, (they hurt)  Have a great week!

(I'll get new pictures up soon!)

Okay so Life is pretty much a ball of stress right now!  Trying to figure out how I am going to manage eveything. Life in general.  Worries about the future never seem to escape my mind.  But why I let them control me is a wonder?  I stress about things I shouldn't stress over, and shrug off the things I should!  Little things make me anxious and big things don't bother me!  Why?  Why God?  Why can I give you the big things, and not the little ones?  The ones that shouldn't control my thoughts and fears?  Why am I letting my fears and worries, and doubts control my future instead of you?

Happy Mother's Day!  (don't forget to tell those you love)

Been a pretty fun weekend.  Ashley has been here and I got to hang with my big sis a little bit.  And she left Micah for the weekend.  He cracks me up!  BUmmer thoug I haven't been feeling to hot.  I have had an upset stomach and gas pains all weeknd (to much info I know).  Plus Jim's family is in town today and my grandparents are as well.  But the good nes is

One week till our puppy gets to come home! YEAH!!!!!!!!

Have a great day!

Here She is!!!  She is so cute!!!!

But we don't have a name yet!  So any suggestions would be awesome.  Ideas that Iam leaning towards Zoe (but I like that name for a daughter), Ebony, Mocha, Dakota, Addie or Maddie!!!
