Busy, busy, busy!!!

We have been crazy busy the past few weeks.  

Kraig went back to work.  We so miss him when he works.  Rett loves his daddy!  That's all he talks about during the day.  

We had a great doctor visit a couple weeks ago.  Rett grew an inch and a half.  Didn't gain any weight really but that's ok.  They weren't too concerned this time.  They gave us some things to work on for his next visit.  

He has made stride in his speech too.  I haven't been to worried about it but he has started to say "foo-ball,"  "ba-ball," and "jui" and "blue" for blueberries.  It's been so fun.  We are working on our ABCs and numbers now.  We got some fun games for Christmas so we work on the alphabet every few days.  Just taking it a day at a time.

We had a youth weekend a couple weeks ago.  It was super fast and super good.  The kids worked hard and played even harder.  They are so fun and I look forward to many more great trips.

Kraig and I went to Passion2014 this past weekend with our friend's church as leaders.  We were so blessed to be apart of the weekend and be with our friends.  They live out of town so its always a treat to see them and get to hear their hearts, share our hearts and just laugh.  It was a weekend that we needed.  We feel refreshed and ready to face the day.  There were a lot of great speakers and music.  And we learned a lot.  I'm still processing most of it but the Lord is good and faithful.  We have a lot to work on and do.  


Rett had a great time with his Gpa which has turned into "Budpa" and Honey which he hasn't said often enough for us to know what that one is but he was so spoiled and came home exhausted from all the playing.  So thankful that he was able to spend some extra time with them so they can spoil him.

Basketball is wrapping up for Kraig.  He has had a pretty good year.  It's been fun to go watch the girls play and see him coach.  He's so good with them.  And patient.  Baseball should start soon.  We look forward to that and the warmer weather.  

We are excited for the next few months.  Lots of fun things going on!  Be sure to check back for more Rett pics and his first haircut will probably happen soon :/

Well - in DUE time all news will come out

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...

goodness...will it ever stop?!

Without further adieu.... Kraig and I have been called to a little church out in the valley to serve as youth pastor (and wifey). What a drastic change this will be!?! But a blessing that I never saw coming :) Kraig has been struggling off and on for about a year now about youth ministry and his (our) role with youth. He knew he loved teaching at OCA and we both loved serving the youth at Oakwood. Kraig just wasn't sure if there was more to his struggle than just teaching and just serving at the capacity that we were in. So, with lots of prayer and searching the scripture, Kraig knew that we were supposed to do something more. Well, that was that. We didn't pursue anything, we had a lot going on at our church and we were just getting into the swing of things and really enjoying our youth. About January...I guess... L O N G S T O R Y short ....Kraig got a call from a pastor that I have known probably as long as I have been in the Chickamauga area...and Kraig met thr...

Where do you want to be?

If someone would have told me 5 years ago that I would: 1 - marry a yankee :) 2 - work with kids 3 - have a kid 3 years after being married (or have a kid, period) 4 - live in Chickamauga I think I would have laughed in their face. Well, here I am...almost to my 3 year anniversary to a YANKEE that I love dearly, work with kids day in and day out - with youth and 4 th graders, we have a baby boy on the way, and it looks like we will be staying in Chickamauga or the surrounding area. Hmmm ...it's funny (I don't think I am laughing yet) how the Lord has molded my life to what He wanted and yet it is so far from what I wanted, but it is exactly what I needed and where I need to be. I love my husband. We rarely agree on much but he is one of the best things to have ever happened to me. We joke about our disagreements, right now, we can't even agree on our son's name. Which I know we have time, I just thought it would come a bit easier. Guess not. :) It will co...
