So.... It's been a while huh? Well we have had a busy last few months! In September we moved into a new home in Fuquay-Varina. I am posting a few pictures of our humble abode. I'm sure there will be more to come later!

Back again....

Ok, first of all, I apologize for being such a slacker when it comes to updating this! But to my credit I did clarify in my first post that I would most likely not be a very consistent blogger :)
There has been so much going on with us these days, so in order to keep this short and sweet, here is a list of our most recent events :) ....
1) We moved out of our apartment and are temporary living with Andrew's brother and his wife while we are in the process of purchasing a home! So our current address is in Holly Springs.
2) I have been out of school for almost a month now and am enjoying my summer sooo much!!!
3) We feel like wedding hoppers... In recent weeks, congratulations to Mary Kate and Jayson Humphries, David and Sarah Lewis, and Jonathan and Sara Margaret Page
4) We just got back from a week at Corolla Beach with Andrew's family and we had a blast!! The weather was gorgeous :)

God has truly blessed us by allowing us to both be able to keep our jobs and by providing us a wonderful place to stay for a couple of months. Please continue to pray that we would have clarity and wisdom in making the right decision about which home the Lord has for us!! I never realized what an intimidating decision it can be!

Well that is all for now :) Below are a couple pictures from some of our adventures...



Maybe one day I will also be better at taking more pictures :) Till then...

One year!!?

Yesterday Andrew and I celebrated our one year anniversary. We went to Ruth's Chris Steakhouse (DELICIOUS!), went to the movies, and did lots of house hunting :) During the past year, Andrew and I have had so many changes in our lives... We graduated from college, got married, and started new jobs! It has been a wonderful year and we have truly been able to see the Lord working and providing every step of the way! God is soooo good :)

Here are some pictures from big events!

Us in 20 years :)

This weekend Andrew and I got to go to Rocky Mount to see my family :) Andrew also had a concert in the area on Saturday night, so it was very convenient! Ok, so here's the "low-down" on my family... My parents live in Rocky Mount - a hotspot along I-95 :) I have a sister who is 20 and a Junior at Liberty(Jana), a 16-year brother (Zachary) and a 12 year-old brother (Luke). It's always so great to be able to see them!!

This particular weekend Zachary had a basketball tournament for his conference... and they won the championship! He also went to the Debu-ette Sweatheart Dance (the girls ask the guys). So I have posted some pictures of my wonderfully handsome brother and his eventful weekend :) (He's the one in the bright red tie)..... All my single ladies (as Beyonce would put it), yes he is single, yes he does love the Lord, and NO I'm not letting him date until he's at least 25 :)

Strike a pose and painting :)

So this evening, Andrew calls me into the bathroom, where I find him posing in front of the mirror in his new shirt. His immediate, and serious, question was "Do I look cool when I stand like this?". He then provided a couple of different poses for me to choose which one was my favorite, or which one was the "coolest". Personally, I found this to be quite hilarious. Above is a picture of Andrew's posing.


Also, I have recently tried my hand at painting and I'm really enjoying it :) I have listed below two things I have recently done. Also the picture at the top of our blog is one a did as well. Hopefully with practice I'll get much better!
