Happy for Abby!!

I haven't yet commented on my sisters impending move so I thought I would take this opportunity to do so.
I am so happy that her man has found a job that he can (hopefully) love and enjoy so much more than his present one. I think a lot of us have prayed for a long time that he would find a good job where his talents could be used and appreciated.
I am really excited that they are moving to Jonesboro. Stephen and I spent the first 5 years of our married life in that area (the first 2 months in Jonesboro) and I grew to love it much more than I thought possible. I hope and pray that they find good friends, an exciting church and a beautiful home where they can entertain many friends and family members.
I know Abby is getting a little antsy about not having a job there, but we all know that God's will is prefect and we also know that if anyone can bloom where she is planted, it is Abby Jo.
I am also envious for a number of reasons, 1-she is closer to some of my dearest friends than I am. 2- she is going to be in the same town as an Ima's(there is no better store and no better sale!) 3- It is what I consider my 2nd hometown, and who wouldn't want to live in their hometown (well their 2nd one anyway!) 4- she'll get to go to ASU games, I used to love going to ASU basketball games. 5- she is going to get the chance to move in to a clean house. I've only lived here for a little over a year and my place is already dirty!!
Well that is all I have to offer at this time. I am excited for her!!!
Congrats Mandy!!! I'm happy for you, and sad for the others!!!

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

  Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time.   I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud!   I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good party has to have go

Meet Shaun

This is my single co-worker and church friend, Shaun. He and I have so much fun bantering back and forth. He takes what I dish out and scoops it right back up and hands it back to me. He is a keeper for that and many other reasons, which I will share on this post. He was kind enough to allow me to highlight him on Kelly’s Korner http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/ for her singles link up. His last words to me about this were, “ This better not be an embarrassment! ” I trust I will do my best to make it not be, but I make no promises! The first thing you need to know about Shaun is that he loves Jesus and the Boston Red Sox . He asked Jesus into his heart at age 8 and is still seeking and serving him today at age 26. Shaun graduated from Arkansas State University with a degree in digital media and design. When he is not busy creating masterpieces for our customers he is hiking, watching the Red Sox , playing basketball, horsing around at the lake or beach, and watching movies. He is fu

He's home!

I know you didn't know my dear husband was out of town. I decided not to post such information. I get scared enough as it is, I sure didn't want to advertise the information. Yes, you read correctly, I get scared. Before we had children, and well, even after Samuel was born, I would stay with a friend of mine when Stephen was gone overnight. When we moved from that town I didn't have anyone to stay with, so I would just sit up and watch tv all night. Fear kept me awake. Isn't that silly? Well, it didn't seem so at the time, but when I look back on it now it seems silly. That is until I have to be without a manly-man in the house. I'm telling you what, I hear every noise, sound, creak, croak. It's awful. Sunday night (the first night) while I was lying AWAKE in my bed I was praying and telling God that I knew He didn't want me to be fearful and that I knew there were many verses in the Bible that told of His being with me at nighttime . I just couldn'
