This is the email Chris sent me the day after my birthday. He melts my heart! I love you too sweetie!

I hope you had a great birthday. I loved going to dinner with you. You are the most special person in the world and I need you to know how much I love you. Have a great day today too!

Flowers from Sara's wedding and for my Birthday!!!

unexpected beauty

these popped up in my flower bed, we saw them the first year we lived in the house and somehow they've moved and multiplied~thank you Lord for your beautiful flowers as a reminder of your love

campfire fun!

no, this is not what we did over the long weekend but it would have been fun!

activity on the house

We've had our house on the market for a while now. I believe God is answering prayers this week.

• Sunday: Remax brought a couple to see the house for the 2nd time, currently they are working on financing and planning on making an offer
• Monday: another Realtor group brought a couple for a 2nd showing and have begun asking questions and possibly are interested
• Tuesday: 1st showing
• Wednesday: 1st showing
• Thursday: 1st showing and then called back for a 2nd showing to show her fiancee the house

I just want to ask everyone to continue to pray for the sell of our house and thank God for all the activity this week. That alone is an answer to prayer. We love our house and don't want to sell it, but feel that this is what God is calling us to do. To move closer to our church and family and get out from under a large mortgage payment in these uncertain economic times.

oh little jetta

So, our little TDI Jetta has kept us busy the past few weeks:

The short story (as short as possible!)

• I lost a hubcab, she now looks horrible.
  
• Then we realized the inspection is up, off she goes to the Lexus dealership with Chris and Mike
• fresh headlights, tried to fix the wheels, inspection and more
• decide to buy wheels and tires-got good deal online, they are on their way to our house now
• then sunday after church with 5 cartons of ice cream in the trunk, the jetta wont start! FUN! riiiiiight.....
• had to call my sister to come rescue us and the ice cream, so after getting the work van and a new battery and we were off
• i shampooed the seats...they look so much better!!!
• and then today: see pics no words necessary AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! (see missing hubcap? Yuck!)
