Making pizza with Brother and Husband!

                      1. Sunday School craziness!                2. Waffle House midnight run! Happy 6 months!

Yes, I know. CindyLouWho.

Sweet puppy kisses!

McDonalds and Monopoly! Merry Christmas, Handsome!

Well, hi there friends!

Have I got news for you!

WE'RE MOVING!

There, I said it.

It's been inside of me for over a month and I've kept it a secret for way too long!

Brandon and I have served at First Baptist Church of Sneads for almost 3 years. We've been through many trials, but the youth group there has truly stolen our hearts. It'll be tough leaving them, but God has shown us a new path.

Back to school! Back to school!

Brandon and I will be moving back to the Baptist College of Florida in 6 days.

Yes, that's right.

6 daysssss.

Yikes.

We are beyond thrilled for this new life. God showed up and showed off. We got him registered for classes, ready to graduate, found a 2 jobs for me, AND a house to rent, all in the SAME day!

We took this as a big fat blinking sign from God.

And it's the best Christmas present ever.

P.S. Because I'll be pretty busy over the next 6 days (and then the Christmas family traditions) I will go ahead and wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

(We have a tradition to buy t-shirts for each other when we visit somewhere new. The key is to find the tackiest one you can. During our honeymoon, without meaning too, we picked the same one! We both won.)

Dear Weight,

Husband lost you, but no fear, I found you.

Dear Honeymoon,

I miss you!

Dear Chrimma Bush,

You fill our little shack with such warm fuzzies. Why can't I leave you up all year round, again?

Dear Husband,

Thank you for letting me be a complete nerd. Bonus, thanks for loving me for it, too!

Dear Bailee Bear,

You're the cutest ball of white fur I've ever known. My very own snuggly little polar bear (...um, puppy.)

Wreath I made for our little shack door using leftover wedding materials.

Dear Christmas,
All of a sudden the world has caught up with me in my excitement for you. I'm a true fan. Celebrate all year long, I do!

Dear Future,
I love you. I'm beyond excited for what's to come. I just want to scream! (More details to come later!)

Dear Olive,
You seem to be growing the "miniature" right out of you. What happened to my little baby girl?

Dear Florida Winter,
I hate you. It may be 90 degrees outside right now, but I'm still rocking the boots and scarves. Take that.

Dear Husband, 

Can you believe it's almost been 6 months since we said "I do"? We've made this little shack a home. And I love it.

I'm alive...

Promise!

Due to recent circumstances, we haven't had internet at our house for about a month.

I physically miss blogging and reading about your lives!

I shall return.

P.S. Don't write about anything too interesting while I'm gone!
