Getting ready to go!

So, we are getting ready to head to Polishing the Pulpit in Gatlinburg. We will be gone from Aug. 22 to Aug. 29. We will be extremely busy! It is our first year to be able to go.
Last night when Josh got home the neighbor 2 doors down came to the door and told Josh that a huge tree limb had fallen out of the tree in the back yard and scared Shelby half to death. He said she was fine but somehow she got off of her run. So he left a note after he chained her back up for us. Thank you God for nice neighbors. I guess He knows how special she is!
Well we have finished week 2 of our Couch to 5K. (Erika and I have, Josh won't run with us) We are running 90 sec. now and then walking 5, you alternate that for 20 min. I think next week we run 90 sec and walk 90 sec. That will be tough, especially since we will be apart from each other! Another friend who will be at PTP will have to keep me on track!
Well, I am getting ready to head up to Curves and then bake some cookies for the neighbors before we head to Ironaton (Ironica) for a gospel meeting.
I hope everyone is having a good week!

Get Healthy!

So, I have started this running thing called Couch to 5k....I think it is from the devil! I run 3 times a week for 30 minutes....you do it in intervals. Anyway....I thought I was going to have a heart attack the first day, the second time I started dry heaving....so maybe this time I will be ok. I know it is good for me, but I am so sore the next day! I am glad I have Erika there to support me though. (she runs with me)
Josh and I have been so blessed this year, thank you all who have helped us get where we are, especially our parents!
Well, I am fixing to go to Curves to work out!
Love you all!

Sorry.....I am horrible!

I know it has been FOREVER!!! We should be getting internet at the house again soon and the posts wont be so few and far between.
We went to the second church camp for the summer at ICYC around Jasper, AL. We had a great week with one baptism and many restorations. That was July 20-25.
We had a surprise visit by Hank, Angie and Molly when we got home after camp. They were only able to stay with us 2 nights though. But we still had a lot of fun!
Then on the 28th for Josh's birthday we went to see the Braves and the Cardinals in Atlanta. We had a blast and the Cards won...duh! So, great day all around!
We actually don't have a ton going on this week...but it is only Monday! I am sure things will change! Hope everyone is doing well.
P.S. keep my grandfather in your prayers....Bill Gray.

Yay Fireworks!!

Well, we had an awesome 4th of July! On the 3rd we went up to the church building and grilled out and watched the fireworks show at the college across the road. It was short but good.
On Friday we grilled out at Erika's. We took the dogs over there and let them play while we cooked and ate....then naturally they got out of the fence and we had to take them back to the house and put them on their runs. We went back to Erika's and made smores!!! (and played a couple of games)
Saturday we went to the hunting club and grilled burgers over a fire pit that we made. Davy and Heather Russell came with us and they brought their dog Drake. We had a great time. We are trying to catch up on rest still. It has been non stop since camp though.....We just feel drained! (hope we aren't getting sick).
Josh's mom had knee surgery on the 3rd so keep her in your prayers. She is slowly getting better, but it will take time.
Thats about it for us! Update again soon.

We're Back!!!

Hi, all! I did not forget about you! We just got back from a very productive week at camp! Avery long week at camp too. I miss everyone already! I was in the cabin with the 8 and 9 year old girls, 10 of them. I am pretty sure we had the messiest cabin on campus! We got back to 2 rambunctious dogs and our new house....air conditioning!! Sometimes I wish camp was 2 weeks....maybe not. We actually don't have as much as usual on the schedule for the next few weeks. It has slowed down a little. I will try to get some new pictures on here soon. It is harder for me to get on now because we don't have internet at the house anymore so when I want to get on I have to come up to Josh's office....but I will do my best....c ya!

quick update

we are slowly getting unpacked. We are trying to sort through everything as we go and separate into trash and yard sale piles! Mom and Nate are coming down tomorrow! I guess we better get the bed set up tonight in the spare room then. Well...I need to get home and get back to work.

Sorry guys!

Sorry, I know it has been a few days. We don't have the internet at the new house yet. So I am sitting at the old dumper! haha just kidding. So, sorry if it takes me a few days at a time to update ya! We are completely moved in and have begun to unpack things. We are having our first company in our new house this weekend...my mom and brother are coming into town....can't wait! (wonder if they will jack the trailer down...inside joke) So our new address is officially:

508 Crosson St.

Weaver Al 36277
