Easter 2014

We had a wonderful Easter. There is so much to celebrate!!  I love that we are able to get together as a family and celebrate that He is Risen!!

Dallas

After tax season we took a much needed get-away! We went to Dallas to spend time with some friends and we had a blast!! There is nothing better in life then getting to spend time with friends and family. Jared and Justin were in a golf tournament on Saturday, so Amanda and I had some girl time.
We were able to go to Top Golf which is so much fun. I highly recommend even if you do not like to golf.
Other than that we just relaxed and had great conversations with friends.

6 Years!!!

Today is our 6 year anniversary!! Time has flown. There have been a lot of ups and downs. Good times and bad times. But it has been worth it. I look at those hard times as obstacles that we have faced, we have learned to let God in when we have victories and when we have troubles.  I love this guy more everyday and miss his tremendously when I don't see him. We have grown closer together and he is my best friend.

Lately...

The past couple weeks have been quite eventful around our house.
First, it is tax season and super busy!!
We took our dogs to the vet to get their annual shots and our pug has a reaction and had to stay at the vet and have oxygen.
About a week later our pug is coughing and gagging all night log. So he gave us medicine for her cough.
On Thursday we came home to our dog looking like this.... something had bit her, it was after hours and our vet was out of town!! We were about to head to Amarillo to take her to the emergency vet when our vet called back. He is such a GREAT vet. We had medicine at the house to give her and she looks so much better.

On the house front we are patiently waiting for the slab guy to get started, hopefully next week.

Patience

I have had to learn to have patience with this house building project.

Getting everything in order to build has been a crazy experience, to say the least!!! We have learned that living in a small town is great until it comes to building a house. We have gotten everything lined out now and if all goes well would should close on March 21st!!

We remembered that when we want something that it doesn't always happen on our time, it happens on GOD'S TIME. We may not like it that way, since our society is so impatient. It has taught me that great things come with patience.

So for all of my friends that are waiting for something great to happen, I just want to tell you that it will, maybe not when you want it to, but it will happen!

But is we hope for what we want we do not see, we wait for it with patience. -Romans 8:25

to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life -Proverbs 2:7

House Update

So for an update on the land..

Our plans are finished, the dirt has been moved and we have staked out where the foundation will be laid. Just a couple more things to iron out and we will be ready to lay the foundation.
