Halloween 08!!









It's starting to get much crazier for us as the holidays approach. We got to go to GCA's homecoming-it was really good to see some old friends and teachers. Congrats to Lauren Vacendak for winning queen!! Oh, how we remember the days of high school! Then Jordan and I went hiking with Zeus, Bella and our friends over at Grapevine lake-that was a blast!! It was so beautiful. And last, but not least we carved pumpkins last night. It was nice after roasting hot dogs and marshmallows by the fire pit to carve pumpkins. It's also the one year anniversary of when we brought Zeus home!! He's come along way in the last year so we are very happy to have him.
I am glad to announce that the little puppy we stumbled upon yesterday has potentially found a new home with one of my students, so I am very glad to hear that...I think it will work out great.
The next 2 months will be so very busy and stressful. Jordan will be finishing up the semester at school, I will be getting ready for Christmas programs and the like, and we will be trying to figure out everything for next year with Jordan's schooling and such, and family issues panning out. Please keep us in your prayers and our families as we will yours!! God is always faithful, but the joy comes when we are equally faithful to His provision and His will for our lives!!

midweek

OK, so I will just come out and admit it. I'm ADDICTED to scrapblog. I don't know what to do with myself. I feel like a new glorious world has come into my life and I can't stop! I love it. Anyway, but on to more important things. I love this weather-its perfect. I am sad that I keep getting sick over and over again, but hopefully (thanks to some good prescriptions) I can make it through. B/c I don't like missing school for being sick!
I'm very glad tomorrow is Friday though!! We are going to GCA's (our old Highschool)  Homecoming=) That is kind of exciting to me, but we'll see how it all pans out...sometimes there's drama. But it will be good to see some old friends, teachers, ect. I am also glad that nothing is planned on Saturday. We haven't had a Saturday with nothing planned for who knows how long...so that will be nice. 
Did I mention I love my husband? He's awesome!=)

Katie and Stephen's Cancun Wedding








I know it has been a long time coming, but I am FINALLY putting pictures up and blogging about my best friend-Katie's wedding. It was in Cancun, Mexico on the top of the Beach Palace Resort at sunset. My mom and I went on Friday afternoon and made it for the rehearsal dinner, and then the wedding the next day-we left Sunday afternoon. I had the honor of being a bridesmaid in her wedding. Katie and Stephen stayed in Cancun for a week after the wedding to honeymoon there. They then went back to live together in Los Angeles, California. Stephen is trying to get a youth pastor position out there, and Katie has a great internship at Fleisman.
On the day of the wedding we were quite worried because the weather was NOT looking good. They said it was going to rain, and the people in charge of the wedding were saying that she was going to have to have it inside. Naturally, they were very upset and worried-b/c there dream wedding was about to be ruined. Thankfully, the rain come and went-and right around the time Katie was walking down the aisle, the sun was setting and it was absolutely gorgeous!! It was all worth it=) The ceremony was great, I loved how Christ-centered it was, and their vows were amazing. I was so glad that I was able to go. My mom and I had a great time together as well. Enjoy the pictures!!
