What's been going on....

Ok, so Megan has been bugging me about updating my blog...so here's what's been going on in my life since Easter.....since Easter is soooooooo over!

Josiah started baseball and has his opening ceremony this Friday night! His team is the Rays. He absolutely loves it!! He's so cute in his helmet!!! Josh loves going to the ball field and just running around and eating snacks and playing with his toys! He so wants to be just like his big brother and do everything Josiah does!

Things at church are going great! We're thrilled about what God is doing in our youth. We've grown in numbers each month. When we first came we had about 30 youth coming and now we're averaging now in the upper 70's-mid 80's. The students are bringing their friends and they're getting saved and they keep coming every week! God is really doing some awesome things and we're so excited! This summer I actually get to go to youth camp, so I'm excited about that too! I haven't been since we started having children, so it's been 6 years or more.

So, these next couple months my life will revolve around church and baseball and I love it!!!

Easter








We had a great Easter this year. On Friday, we colored our eggs, then we went to our church's egg hunt on Saturday. That night Ronnie's parents and sister's kids came in from VA to spend a couple days with us. We all went to church together on Sunday and had another egg hunt after lunch in the yard. Wish it was a little warmer, but at least the sun was shining!!!

10 Year Anniversary Cruise to the BAHAMAS!


Yes, Ronnie surprised me with a cruise! All I knew was that we were flying to FL and then we get to the airport that morning and I see we're headed to Jacksonville. I don't know anything about Jacksonville, so I'm wondering what's going on. We get to Jacksonville and as we're about to go down the escalators to baggage claim I see this sign that says, "Welcome Carnival Cruise guests" I thought, "Hummm...I wonder if that's what we're doing???" Ronnie sees me looking at the sign and says, "Well, I might as well tell you that we have to put these tags on our bags." And pulls out these Carnival tags you put on to be transferred from the airport to the port! And then he told me we were going to the Bahamas!!! I was so shocked!!! I had thought a cruise was a possibility, but I didn't think the Bahamas! So, I got to experience several things I had never done before. The experience of crusing on a huge ship for one was a first and snorkeling and feeding stingrays!!! So, here's some pictures to enjoy! There are LOTS more pictures in my pictures link!

Our ship - we couldn't fit it all in the picture!

This was on formal night
