Where to start?

I have no idea where to start since it's been almost a year since i have blogged. I know it wont be consistent, but maybe every now and then. I think I more addicted to facebook...and I feel this guilt when I am on the computer all the time....I always think what could I be reading or doing etc...I ignored the guilt tonight.

Let's see.....

The last couple of months have been a whirlwind!

• found I was pregnant


• My mom had a stroke


• financial challenges in our family/ministry...............................yet God has been so Faithful.

Pregnant! Casey and I wanted a baby two years ago. So, we aggressively tried with 5 injection cycles. I could write a book on that in itself. 4 failed and one miscarriage. This past summer I think was the hardest few months of our life...strains of beach project, traveling , wisdom teeth, and the longing of wanting another child.

Casey' s mom really has been so good for me in the fact that she has walked in my same shoes. She watched her siblings and friends pop out babies while she couldn't. I dont know why God has allowed this but I am grateful for so many reasons. I feel like I know Him in a deeper, unique way. He has taught me that He is still good even when I dont get what I want. He has made the gospel sweeter to me. I feel I enjoy Jadyn so much more. I literally dont get much done around the house bc I am playing with her and just enjoying her....GRACE, grace...God's grace. (however, of course there are times I want my time)

Casey 's mom knew a doctor from Dothan, Al who gave me medicine that lowered insulin and estrogen that helped me ovulate...and on the third month it worked. When I saw positive on that pregnancy text...I fell to the floor weeping. I couldn't believe it. I am now 12 weeks and still get nervous at time but I know who allowed me to get pregnant and I cant controll anything. We are so looking forward to another child...and a sibling for Jadyn.

In Feb we all went to the St. Rosa beach to Lindseys aunt's beach house for Mardi Gras break. It was a fun get away. The beach was so cold! It's fun having Jamie apart of the family. Who would ever have known that the freshman girl I met 5 years ago would be my future sister in law. It's such a blessing and a joy. I look forward to the years ahead!

Halloween

All of our staff and children went trick or treating.....It was so much fun for all of us. This is only a few of the children.

Jadyn, our cinderella, running for more candy!

Does Jadyn know how to smile or what???

Casey painting our ceilings...check out those legs!
Our kitchen floor..... one of my favorite things about this house

Jadyn's new friends Hanah and David. Mom came down too to help us......what would we do without 'Nanna"

Unloading the truck...

Watching Casey in front of me leaving Hammond for good.....was way too tired to be sad.

On the move again!

We found a house! God has heard our prayer. We wanted a house with a big den and kitchen and this is it. I love it! This was the first house we saw, and I knew it was perfect. I just didn't know if God was going to open the door. Casey and I laid in bed every night praying about this house. We prayed that we would be close to friends (1.2 miles from our driveway to theirs) , close to campus (7 minutes away) and close to Casey's office ( 3 minutes), good neighborhood and that the owners would lower their price.... All answered... to God be the glory...

We close on 28th.... wow.... I can't believe it! Here is the link to our future house. Can't wait to paint and decorate.
