little girls and our first snow.

Anna had her dedication a few weeks ago. She looked adorable as always. We went to Eric and Kareena's church and then went to their house for lunch. It was too short, but we got to see a lot of family and hang out with 3 of our 4 precious little nieces.

pretty sure she can't get any cuter






Mornings have become one of my favorite times of the day. There is something about the richness of a new day. I usually get my java, cereal, the Bible on my phone, and chat with Jesus. The field behind our house is what I look at each morning and last Thursday was more special because of the beautiful blanket of snow I woke up to.

Yesterday was our 4th Valentine's together... and the best one yet.

AC and I both had to work. I got home at 645 to see a pretty lavender plant, swedish fish, and a love note. We had Spice and Ice (an asian restaurant in north albany) for dinner, watched the bachelor, and listened to my new mixed cd!

It included a few of our mainstays...

the talented Ben Harper



the beautiful Alicia Keys


And of course Mr. Dave Matthews


i love my man.

Wow. I haven't done anything on here for over a month!

I got a new job!! I am working at the Albany Boys and Girls Club as a Program Assistant. I am supervising little kiddos all afternoon! This week I will start teaching a Boys and Girls Club of America curriculum as well. God totally had his hand on all of this. I had interviewed with them in the Summer and they hired a different person, which was a blessing. Being part time at Togo's, the FHA loan required 2 years on the job. Boys and Girls Club called me on Monday, January 3rd seeing if I could come in for an interview- I said yes, very happily. We signed on Tuesday. Closed on Thursday. Got the keys on Friday. Interview on Friday. Offered the job Friday. Moved Saturday. Busy Sunday. Started Boys and Girls Club Monday. God is amazing. His timing is so perfect and I feel so blessed to be at a place that is empowering these kids and truly making a difference.

I also became a Scentsy consultant, which I am totally pumped about.

We are finally moved into our first home and feeling more settled by the day. I finished up the bathroom in our room this week. AC hung up all the blinds (not such a fun job), we sanded our dresser and nightstands today to be painted, got cable and internet, and our new bed! Things still need to be put on the walls, but that will come in time.

In a nut shell, there's our month of chaos/blessings/God's provision/and a cozy place to call home.
