HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ERIC!!!!!!!

For those of you who know my not-so-little-brother he is NINETEEN today!! That is crazy! You can wish him a happy birthday here. I can remember all of his own little words for things like, "dow" for gum; "thball" for ball; "choc-lick" for chocolate... Poor guy, we must not have been helpful to him on the whole pronunciation dealio! :) Tee hee! Eric, which flavor cake would you like for your b-day, "dis one, dat one?" ;)

In other big and wonderful news... We have a new little one in the family!! We have a new little niece named Isabella and she is so precious! :) God has blessed us with many healthy kids in the family!

Hope all of you are having a blessed week!

    Thanks, sweet friend! I was greatly encouraged by the comments. I needed them. Are you going to do the bible study with Brittney? I think I am.

    Hey there Missy!! So good to her from you! There's pie here waiting for you! You just have to come get it. I'll be making 3 or 4 more later today. Sure do miss you. I'm so looking forward to being up there and getting to spend time with you and Tim. We're getting a slower start on getting things done than we originally intended, but Lord willing we will still get up there before the year ends. Lots and lots of love to both of you!!!!

    So good to hear from you. I'm still waiting for the results from my MRI. I hope to hear soon. Otherwise, everyone is doing fine. Michael and Beth are trying to sell their house and find a bigger one in the area. Cheryl and family are having a house built near Southern Pines.

    I was bummed the morning guy didn't mention your company or name at the end of the segment.

    My friend Esther wants to do faux finishing and I told her about you. Any tips?
    by duodamsel at 01/07/09 12:17AM

Merry Christmas!!!!

I hope that all of you have a wonderful holiday!! I am doing last minute things today... work, laundry, shopping, and making a few cookies if there is time! Yikes! What are the rest of you up to?
  • blessings_of_a_mom
    Cleaning, laundrey, dishes, and maybe making cookies. This Saturday is my shopping day with Stephen. I will then spend Monday wrapping. This Sunday night we are going to the preacher's house for fun and games. My mom will be here on the 26th. The kids are excited. I just hope everything is clean by then.
    by blessings_of_a_mom at 12/20/07 9:22AM

    Work today through Sunday. Cleaning and getting last minutes gifts. Hopefully, traveling to Bremen for the holiday. Maybe I could bake some goodies while we're there....but we'll see. Enjoy your first holiday as a married couple. :)

Sarahbee for Huckabee :)

Just wanted to put up a new post to ask you all to take a look at my hubby's blog to watch these awesome video clips. Not trying to be a political nerd, just want to share what I like about this guy.

On another subject, I hope all of you out there are doing well. May you have a very Merry Christmas and blessed time with family and friends!

love,
Sarah
  • blessings_of_a_mom
    Stephen told me that he is worried about this guy. As a govenor he wasn't that great and AK had a HUGE tax hike. That scares me.
    by blessings_of_a_mom at 12/13/07 12:00AM
  • sarahbee
    You should take a look at his website and read about what he has to say about taxes, particularly the fair tax.
    by sarahbee at 12/13/07 7:47AM

    I truly am interested in your political views, but tell us about married life!!! :) Glad you're doing well! Miss you!

    I'm a Ron Paul fan, but the fact that Huckabee is for the Fair Tax could almost steal my vote away from Dr. Paul.
    by matermagistra at 12/16/07 11:19PM
  • matermagistra
    I wish there was more exposure for the Fair Tax. It rocks and I'd love to see it put into practice. Have you read the book?

    by cudger at 12/17/07 4:14PM

I like Mike

Hey everyone! Hope you are all doing well! Just wanted to see how many of you are following the campaign trail and who you might be leaning towards at this point. Tim and I really like Mike Huckabee and have been almost addicted to watching his public appearances online. What do you think of him or any other candidates?

p.s. Take a look at his blog to see some great footage!
  • blessings_of_a_mom
    Hey lady. As I told Tim I don't know much, but I do know that he is a great supporter of Homeschooling which gets my vote.
    by blessings_of_a_mom at 12/05/07 4:09PM
  • sarahtidwell
    I haven't picked a certain one yet but I have heard good things about Huckabee.

    by cdillman23 at 12/06/07 10:40AM
  • duodamsel
    The media keeps asking him about his views on creationism and his other beliefs. He's become very frustrated with those questions. The media is so scared of any type of morality! The news reports are trying to scare America into thinking that a Huckabee presidency would make Bush's White House seem Godless.
    by duodamsel at 12/06/07 12:16PM
  • matermagistra
    I'm a Ron Paul fan, myself. But my husband really likes Mike Huckabee.

    So...where are the wedding pics?!
    by matermagistra at 12/06/07 10:26PM

    I'm hearing more and more about Mike Huckabee and Ron Paul, but haven't done a lot of research on this - maybe as we get into full swing next year.
    by matidwell at 12/08/07 9:38AM

    Same here. I need to keep up with everything though. Do you know much about the other people running?

    Hi, Sarah. My name is Jessica, and I know Tim from camp and college. I just realized, though, that we have some mutual friends... the Coffields, Sara Atkins, Jason Waggoner and possibly others. I'm glad you and Tim found each other.

    by nugglefriendcuz at 12/12/07 3:48PM

Yep, we're married!!

I'm gonna do this a little backwards. Since we really don't have any wedding pictures yet to speak of I will share some from the honeymoon...

A view of the catskills on a hike we took in Liberty, NY:

We spent the later part of the week in NYC. Here are a few pics from the Big Apple:
Tim by the bull in the financial district:

Me by a sculpture made from what was left of a tree in a church building's courtyard after 9/11:

We walked the Brooklyn bridge from Brooklyn to Manhattan to see the city skyline:

Here is Tim getting his part of our portrait... where my half looks nothing like me!

We had yummy dessert and coffee in Little Italy:

For all of you Full House fans out there... We know you won't believe it... Are you ready?? We saw... Bob Saget!! :) hee hee

Here was the view from our room... Spectacular!!

And here is the beautiful lady at sunset!

It was an amazing trip! We had a blast!! Thanks for letting me share! I hope that all of you are doing great!
love,
Sarah

    Jim's concerns are his weakness on immigration and taxes but admires him. Mike is a true compassionate conservative. I think Fred & Mike would be great as a ticket.
