My sister had her baby on Monday! Her name is Landry Brooke and she weighed 7.1 lbs. and was 19 in. long. She is super beautiful! I am offically a blood aunt! I am so proud of Becka and Matt. They have been already and will fantastic parents! The Lord is so good to bring Landry here safely. Please pray that she'll remain healthy and strong, and that my sister will recover from the birth quickly and well. We appreciate all your prayers!!

Beautiful Trees

These are our three beautiful trees that stand in our front yard. I have enjoyed them alot, since missing all the great (they seem gigantic now to me) trees of east Texas.

Mother's Day weekend

Tyler's mom and dad came to Clovis Mother's Day weekend. It was nice to have family with us at church on Sunday. We went to the movies Sat, night and saw Iron Man (it was actually really good, suprisingly, Mr. Steve was right...he really wanted to see it) We went shopping and out to eat as well. We had a great time with them and enjoyed having guests stay in our new home again. Oh, and they let us drive their new Toyota Tundra all weekend which was quite fun. One pic is Tyler and I standing in front of it.

Our furniture pictures finally.....

The CUSHION.....has COME!

FINALLY! They personally delivered our missing cushion today. After all the turmoil over a simple loveseat cushion...I think Tyler was thinking he may have to sue this furniture store if they never had given us what we already paid for. It is all well now. Thank goodness!

We both had a long weekend away from one another. I traveled to east Texas for one of my friend's weddings. The wedding was nice, but emotional for me, since it was my best friend since high school's wedding. Many memories shared together with Melissa.
It was nice to get to see friends and family. I only got to see my parents for just a wee bit. I did get to see my best friend Jamie McCurdy and her husband, B.J. and their little beautiful girl, Emma Noel. That was a special treat for me, since I NEVER get to see them.
I also got to spend alot of time with my college roomates, espeically Megan, her husband Greg, and their adorable little boy, Hayden Joseph. They are such wonderful parents!!! Seeing Courtney and her husband John was delightful as well. I wish we all lived closer to one another!

I missed Tyler horribly, however. We do not like being apart at all. He ended up going to Synder, though, and got to spend alot of time with his younger brother Mitch and his mom and dad. He spent the whole time fishing and came home with a sunburn from sitting out on the pond all weekend.
We were both happy to be home Sunday together.
I only have 4 more weeks of school! My kids are taking the Math TAKS test tomorrow. I am praying they do well. I am looking forward to the summer break and going back to east Texas to see my neice, Landry Brooke, after she's born.

Well, that's all for now around these parts. I will seriously post some furniture pics another evening when it's not past my bed time already.

No cushion....

Our cushion has yet to come...

Tyler and I are reading this book called "When people are BIG and God is small"..he just read to me from the comfort of his chocolate brown recliner: "People who fear God, fear nothing." I'll just leave it at that.

We are enjoying life married to one another in Clovis, NM in our home. We are looking forward to starting a family soon (Lord willing). Our plan is to start trying in July or August. We are really eager and excited!

Our Furniture has ARRIVED!

Well our furniture FINALLY came on Thursday afternoon. I couldn't wait to get home from school to see it! Tyler called while I was at work and told me some astounding news, however. He said all the furniture was there except one cushion for the loveseat! We laughed a lot about it, but were a little annoyed. I mean how can you not notice that a cushion is missing???? Were the people blind that packaged it up??? Very strange. Tyler called the furniture store and they said they were going to ship it directly to our house within 4-5 days. So we have our couch, loveseat with one cushion, and Tyler's recliner. We really love it all and have enjoyed it so far. We are thankful the Lord allowed us to be able to finally purchase furniture of our own. We pray it will be used for His glory and purposes always in a hospitable home.

I will be posting pictures soon!~
