Great Week

I can't believe it's almost already another week. Last week after I got off work tuesday night Drew and I headed to Litchfield for the week with his family. We had sucha great time. I think it has been since our honeymoon since we actually took a vacation together. It was a much needed one and all we did was lie on the beach. Our house was right on the beach and it was GREAT! I can't wait to go back there again next year. I have never been to Litchfield before and it's only about 30min away from myrtle. Although, Drew and I don't like myrtle anyway!

I'm so excited because we get to go to Wild Dunes in charleston for our 2 year wedding anniversary in december. I'm so excited about it. I think were going to invite my parents to come for a couple of days. There not the traveling kindof people and have never even been to charleston.

We went to church today and taught our cute 3 year olds. Which come august were moving up with them and teaching 4 year olds. I'm very excited because there is such a difference just between the ages. Plus we love the kids and want another year with them.We then had lunch with our friends the Amerson's. God has truly blessed with some great friends from church. We pigged out on some pizza from Mellow Mushroom and it was really good and the first time we had been there.

Well, off to another week of work and school. ughhhh. I started a social commitee at work for my unit and this week were going to eat at City Range and I'm so excited because that is one of my fav's.

Everyone have a great week!!

Montana pics. Read below first!

Drew's Montana mission trip.

So Drew went on his first ever mission trip with a bunch of people from our church to Montana to help them build a church. This church I think he said had about 30 members and has had no preacher for 2 years. He even said another church that was near them had been saving up money for years to help build a new church until they heard about this church and there need to build. Well, this other church after saving up bunches of money gave all there money to this church. It was a great deal of money too but I think how wonderful that was and that church regained that money in a year. Blessing do come from helping people. Well, here are some pics from his time there. He didnt get to many of the actual church or an after pic. guys!!

Standing and on something. See all they got done! I'm so proud of all of them.

Yeah, he is looking rough withhis hairy face!

Here is what the church looked like when they go there.

These are pics just from the scenery and from Yellowstone National Park. He had such a great time and it's just so beautiful there. Look at all the animals and how close you could get to them. Look at the pics above!!

Week update

Well, this has been a week. I have been hubby less since Saturday. I just can't tell you how much I miss him! I hate him not being here. He went on a mission trip with some others from our church to Montana to help build a church. He has talked none stop about how pretty it is and how he wants to take me there.

Him and Brandon and two others were able to go to Yellowstone while they were there. This is Drew's second time there except this time it was daylight. He got to see all kinds of things and I will post pics when he comes back.

I decided I was going to be a big girl and stay by myself. Sooo Saturday I go to bed just Gizmo and me and get a phone call at 2am with some not nice things to say. It sounded like a drunk Mexican. Well, scared me to death and I just knew someone knew I was home by myself. So the rest of the week has been spend at my parents.. Ahhh, I hate not being in my home.

Today I drive to Columbia and stay the night because I have a wedding I'm in. I can't wait to come home tomorrow night and pick my hubby up. I know he is ready to come back home too.

Please pray for me as I drive to Columbia and Please pray for the guys as they come back from Montana and they get back safely.

Summer L. I think you have done such a great job being a single mom this week.

Thanks bunches

I just wanted to say thank you to all for their kind and uplifting words. Also, for the prayers!!!!! I just can't say how blessed we are. Sometimes it takes something traumatic to open you eyes. Well, mine our WIDE open. He definitely got my attention. Our family has been so great through this tough time. Also, especially our church friends I just can't thank them enough for all the prayers and encouraging words.

I think I received about 7 or 8 bundles of flowers from people. They were all so very pretty and really did make me feel better. Summer L. yours just now died so yours lasted a long time. I also had a friend make a pot of orange Gerber daisy and some purple flowers (Clemson colors). There so pretty but unfortunately I think I have manged to kill them :( I watered them and everything. Hmmmm.

Well, again thank you for everything and keeping us in your prayers. I will definitely let you all know when we do have more news but I will definitely be waiting a while this time.

xoxo
