That's right, John and I now own our OWN house. I am so excited. I am so glad that we are now able to do whatever we want in our house. That we can paint the walls any color, we can change whatever we want and not have to ask. Renting hasn't been that bad, but I am so glad that we now have a house that is 100% ours!
I am hoping to start painting today! Alex kinda sounded stuffy all last night, so hopefully he isn't getting sick. I really just want to spend the day painting and such so that we can move in soon.
Well I have to start getting around. I have to run to Walmart and get some plastic for the floors.

Awesome service today!!!!
My uncle Hod was preaching at the Bethel church today so John, Casey, my parents, the boys, and I went. He is an awesome preacher!!! I have never heard him preach before because he doesn't live here, but I was so glad I had the chance.
He is a man that speaks with such passion. I know alot of men that can give awesome sermons, that you know that they truly are speaking the word of God, but when you talk to them you just can feel the pride coming from them. Like they just feel that they are all that and a bag of chips, so that kinda lowers your opinion of them. Hod is totally not like that. He has always been the nicest guy, one who ask how you are doing and you can tell that he really does want to know. Unfortunatly I don't get the talk to him much. This is the first time I have seen him in 2 years.
Anyway his sermon was on prayer and one thing that he said that really grabbed my attention was that Jesus was 100% man and 100% God at the same time and yet he still prayed. He who could make miracles happen and who created the world, still prayed. WOW!! If Jesus found that prayer was important in his own life, enough that he would go out by himself and pray for long periods of time, how important should it be in my life. That really humbled me!!!
I was so glad that John and I decided to miss our own church service to go and listen to Hod. Both of us came away with lots to think about.

Poor Alex
Today while John was cooking lunch and I was looking for some fabric, while Alex was playing in the living room. He has been trying to escape out the screen door lately so I had locked it.
Well all of the sudden we hear this horrible scream and both John and I rushed in. Alex had gotten his right index finger stuck in the part of the door right by the hinges. After we unlocked the door and got his finger out, we noticed it was pretty bad. He had cut it pretty deep across his fingernail.
We took him to the urgent care and they gave him 2 shots so they could look at it. They then took some xrays to make sure the bone was not shattered, which it wasn't. Then they started to stitch it up. They had to give him another shot because he would cry whenever they would poke it and pull his finger away. When he kept doing it they decided to put him on this board that had straps on it to hold him down and then they held him arm and hand down. They had to do 4 stitches and gave us meds to give him so it doesn't get infected because it was really deep.
He is doing pretty well now, but the shot is still working. I hate to think what he will be like when it wears off.

My boys
I just had to share the pictures of my boys. I had these taken by a lady who took our family pictures we had before Jeremiah. Every holiday she does something special for picture packages and for Easter she uses live animals. They turned out really great. Ashley had Bianca's taken too and they turned out awesome too.

New Blog
I decided to start a new blog. I wasn't happy with my old one because you had to scroll through the pictures and the posts. It wasn't like this one where you just scroll down the page, you would have to go and search through the different parts of the page to see if there was stuff that you missed. So I decided to just start this one today. It also wouldn't let you make different paragraphs on a post so my post were always just one huge paragraph, which really bugged me!
I decided to title my blog "In His Time" because I want to start trusting God for things to happen in his time. Instead of standing here saying "God do you hear me, I need answers" I want to trust him for HIS answer. Its not so much patience that I am asking for, but peace. Peace that God wants me to prosper and that he is always listening. That sometimes his answer is wait or harder yet NO.
So anyway here are some pictures of my little men and my cute little niece.
