Givensmeabreak....

This week has been pretty uneventful. I think I like it like that. :) We had Monday off to celebrate our Presidents. It was a great day. Kraig and I cleaned the house really well and just marked stuff off of my "to-do" list. It was nice to feel accomplished. We still have a lot left but it was nice to say that we did some things and not let the day get away from us. We had Bible Study Tuesday with a great group of friends. We have started a new book called The Life of God in the Soul of Man by Henry Scougal. He's an old dead guy so it should be good and hard to understand. We will see how this goes. Then it was smooth sailing through the rest of the week. We filed our taxes and this is the first year that we will be getting MONEY back! Praise the Lord ~ we so badly want to pay off the truck so now we are just a little bit closer to that goal. :) Today, we had to chance to go visit some dear friends. We decided to meet half way which landed us in Scottsboro,...

Last year for Valentine's we got a dog... Kraig loves dogs. He loves for them to play with and love on him. Lick him and just be "man's best friend." Well, I'm allergic. And I fought this for a long time. Mainly because they are a lot of work and we are rarely home to take care of a dog. Well, last year for Valentine's, I caved in. I told Kraig the only way we could get one is if it is hypoallergenic. And I also wanted to rescue one and when I was looking I soon realized they are hard to come by so I thought we would never find one, which was ok by me. :) So, last year we went looking at all the shelters and they had none. We heard about 2 ladies who rescue Malti-poos and thought we would go give it a shot. When we got to the place, I liked none of them. :( We saw a poodle mix and Kraig loved him but he was already adopted. We got to talking to the lady and we told her what we needed and she said she had a schnazuer. She started to explain him ...

I don't even know where to begin... I guess the most recent news would be that we are going to have a surprise visit from the stork in June and it's a BOY! I am sure I will update more later because it being a surprise has come many other surprises that we have had to work through so that is all DUE time. :) Also, I think last I wrote, my dad was being shipped off to Kuwait. Well, he's back and working in Nashville as the Senior Enlisted Leader for the state of Tennessee. He's pretty important. We are so very proud of him. He does his job well. We are trying to buy a house. That's another big thing going on in our lives. Mainly because we have a new addition and we need to be more stablized. Maybe so, maybe not...but we feel like this is the next move that we should make. Now, if only we could find a house :) In DUE time again, I'm sure the Lord will place the perfect house in front of us. So, PLEASE, PLEASE pray we can find something suitable for u...
