"God please protect my soulmate from harm, watch over him while he is away from me, guide him with your love, give him strength to make it through this difficult time,walk beside him in times of danger and in times of happiness,give him the courage to stay strong, comfort him with the knowledge of our love and please Lord, reassure him that I will be here for him now and forever."

When all you have is God, you have ALL you need!!!

I know my blogging has not been regular but trust me these last few weeks have been horrible!!!! For those who don't know, I got laid off at my job that I have been at for almost 2 years. It was not a big surprise because of the economical status that we live in today. I have nothing but good to say about the company that I worked for and I have to say I learned a lot while I was there.... I just hate it happened to me. I try to remind myself that when one door closes, another opportunity opens ;) God is in complete control.......ALWAYS and I'm so thankful for that! Everything happens for a reason.....right?!


Besides losing my job, my fiance is leaving in a week from today for basic training in Missouri. Ryan will be gone for 14 weeks and I have to say, this is the hardest experience on an engaged couple. I'm sure for many people/families... it's not going to be the most difficult, but with us being engaged, planning a wedding, getting laid off my job, and him leaving makes us both emotional and we have learned through all of this that when all you have is God, you have ALL you need. God has been so good to us and I know with our strong FAITH in each other and Him we will be just fine. Thanks for all of your prayers and support ;)



This past Tuesday we had a cookout for Ryan so that all of his family and family friends could wish him luck before he leaves. Inspite of the nasty weather, we had a great time!! Ryan's mom and dad did a great job on everything!!! My parents brought the cake that was made at Strossner's Bakery and it was DELICIOUS!!!!!! We all enjoyed ourselves and we thank everyone who came out!!! For all who couldn't make it and or came and want to join.... we are having 1 more outing this coming weekend in Anderson. Hope to see ya there!



As some people may know, my dear friend Randi lost her fiance in Iraq about a month ago and her story has touched so MANY people lives and ours. She is an amazing woman and I just would like for anyone who reads this to please pray for her and Gary's families. Their testimony is something I will NEVER forget!!! Gary is a true American Hero and they will ALWAYS have a special place in our hearts. We Love You Randi!!!!!!
