Ok....So the day is finally here. i have not been able to sleep well for about two weeks now. i am so excited to finally be in our house. We are offically getting the keys to it today when we close. i can't wait to start the rest of our lives together. The memories and dreams that we will have are so exciting to think about.

God is so good. It's really a testiment to see what He does for us in our lives. We decided a long time ago that we were going to live for God in our relationship and i think so far we have. i get to see everyday how much Carla loves me and how much God loves me thru her!

i want to do so much!

i don't know where to start!

The hardest thing that i have ever done in my entire life is buy a house. In that we haven't even bought the house yet. Why can't it be easy and just a swap of the keys and a hand shake. i know, i know. we have to protect our investments. . . so what. Once the keys dropped no one cares what you do to the house. As long as you have the money at the end of the month so what. i just want it over. i want to begin the rest of my life with my beautiful wife. Why, oh why is that so hard?

i want a dog. We have been hanging out with Jarrod, Stacy and their dog, Rudy. It's just made me in a sense of want i guess. i know i don't need a dog and that it's soo much work to deal with one. i mean i can kinda keep up with Jonah (who, at this moment, has figured out that he can reach the door handle. The same door handle that we use to leave with. How sad, that our cat is coming to grips with life and reality.)

-my friend Chris' Dog!

i think that some times we forget which friends we really miss. It's not until you hang out with them again 'til you really notice it. i wish that things would never change. Like we just felt the same everyday...happy. Not that i am not happy. i have a beautiful wife and about to have a home to ourselves. i just mean, that what if we were just happy little drones. Like that we didn't feel pain or suffering. i know that scripture shows that we wouldn't ever learn or know what God's love really is. i guess it's just my selfish thinking . Thinking that i know everything in the world and that it would be better done my way. You learn alot from a good close friend, or even a wife! A beautiful, stunning, never giving up kinda wife!
i Love you baby and you mean the world to me. Thanks for fighting for me!

Love, Later, Bye

Music Star!?

So, i was wondering what it would look like if i had my own cd cover. i realize that i get really bored really easy. But it's ok cause it will come in handy one day down the road.


i know that i am not the best singer in the world but i want to see what can happen. It might be good for one when we settle down in nashville. Which is, oddly enough, where i was conceived. Me, Carla, and the twins. Right?
By God's will alone!

So this week has been pretty crazy. I think we came into this week hoping for it to be straight out of a movie or something. I think that in so many ways it was. Our “motel” that we stayed at was just that… a motel. We walked into a king size prison. Little did we know that Motel 6’s King size rooms were also handicap only. Meaning that the bathroom was huge with bars everywhere. It was creepy. We also didn’t have any towels or rags. I don’t know if they even looked at the room after checkouts. So oh well! Needless to say we ended up enjoying the room and are having an amazing time here. It’s kind of boring in some parts…meaning that if it rains, you’re screwed! But we cope as married couples do. (Wink) We are finding out so much about life and just each other. It’s so shocking to be married and young. It took us awhile to just realize the reality. So we just started to call each other “Husband & Wife”, duly needed! We just can’t wait to get back and just show each other off and be officially married in Ham Town! We love everyone there and miss you all. Married Couples UNITE!

Love, Later, Bye
