It's February!

With Jonathan out of town last week for work, I didn't mind putting in a few lot of extra hours at work. I missed him a lot but another blessing about being in Bham is the friends and family that surround me and spend time with me esp when the hubs is out of town. Allison and I spent practically every waking moment together working, working out, dinner, lunch and breakfast. I enjoy and look forward to going to workout classes with my sis and Allison...it's a lot more fun than going alone and definitely more motivation.

In other exciting news, Jonathan and I have been volunteering in the nursery aka Wamba Land at church and it is amazing! We keep such beautiful kids with so much personality and it's my favorite part of our church; we love reading and talking about Jesus with the little ones...I've missed nannying and it feels great to visit with the young in's each week. It's sweet when Jonathan looks over at me or I look at him and we are both engaged with the little ones, usually I'm reading to the girls and he's throwing the basketball with the boys...exciting times to come for us with parenthood whenever that time may come.

We've started small groups at Redstone and tonight is our first meeting with our group...looking forward to getting to know each couple and share stories, concerns and learning about living a life for God and experiencing a fulfilling marriage. It's important to us to continue growing and we've wanted to join a small group for a long time but with our move to Florida and back to Alabama, we didn't make the time to settle down...finally we are doing it! Blessings!! I'm not completely sure what to expect but what I do know is that we will be encouraged, disciplined and blessed by making time for God and working with other couples to honor Him, study His word and live life for Him.

Looking forward to date nights & quiet nights with my incredible husband, girls night with my sister and a family weekend in Atlanta visiting my cousin. Even if I only get fuzzy pictures using my iphone, I am going to take pictures; I miss our camera.
