Back to the Books!

I am back in school.. and I am downtown every day that I have class. . so it has been a week back officially and things are looking good. It has been a nice, easy process so far. I think that it will be ok! I hope you don't mind Chelsea, but I loved this picture of you and I wanted to post it.

I LOVE this little cafe! It is so good and pretty reasonable priced.

Downtown is one of my favorite places... and I snapped a bunch of photos on my way to the car, and these next few are my favorites!

The point of the photo is the lamp posts and not the Coke plant!!!

Thanks for joining me on my journey to school!!!!

Birthday Celebration con't

Happy Birthday Greg.... Sunday after church we went to my dad and Sheila's and celebrated the three birthdays I mentioned a couple of days before. Today is Greg's official Birth-day! :)

In order from left to right: Jacob, Madison, Bethany, and Lexus. Jacob and Lexus are my step-brothers children.

We had a great time!

a picture of something I found. . .

Happy Birthday Sheila, Grandma, & Greg!

Instead of taking three whole blog days.. I decided to wish everyone a very happy birthday TODAY! I will probably post pictures of birthday festivities in the next week to come, but for now.. I introduce to you: Sheila (01/21) and Grandma (01/24) and my brud-der Greg (01/26) who will be 21 years old!!!!!!

 

Do you know what this means now that Greg is 21??? He is old enough to drive an 18-wheeler anywhere in the United States opposed to just the state of Virginia!!!!! Man... we should really make a bigger deal about these 21 year birthdays.. ya know??? Congrats Greg... now go pass that CDL test so you can exercise your new ability to drive a tractor trailer where-ever your little heart desires!

We definitely  have plans to celebrate these birthdays... but for now.. they are being celebrated on here! Happy Birthday You Three!

 

Pic O' The Day

Please take part and enjoying a wedding scene from 3 years ago!! Can anyone guess which head would be my husbands?? This is his brother Paul. I love this photo.. So take a guess real quick... Is Dennis to the Right or to the left???? .............................

Ok!.. Drum Roll please....
Dennis is to the left of this picture closest to the brick wall.
Funny story.. I was late to our own wedding. I drove myself there, and when I got out I prematurely freaked out because I thought that Dennis saw me BEFORE the wedding, when really it was just Paul!!!! They do look very much alike in this picture.

We have a Visitor!

This is Tommy! Everyone say hello! He is going to be staying with us for a little while. This will hopefully going to be a great time of lifting up and teaching. Not only from our side to him, but from him to us! It was great opportunity to lend out a helping hand to him while excercising the command to be hospitable. as Paul says in Romans 12:13 "Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality." so we are! He may be here awhile, or for a short period of time... but we hope that he leaves encouraged and sanctified in his Savior! He will joining us to church for the time being. Please welcome him.

My thinking/reading/praying chair

Well You all know that I have been all day long making a space in my office for a chair.... well, I have done it and it looks pretty good!!! I have added some lamps, and took some things out... not to mention cleaning out drawers.. so, not only does it look spectacular on the outside, it is spectacular underneath it all too!! Pictures? Ok!

 

 

 

 

Yep.. you see that right: Sex, Romance & The Glory of God by C.J. Mahaney! Although I am reading that.. my more serious reading is "Pierced for Our Transgressions"

I am just getting started, I will let you know how that goes.
