Happy Birthday Wife!

Today is my wife's birthday. Wow we've been together for over a year and married for almost two months. I think/know that God has a weird way of teaching us about stuff. We spend our entire lives waiting on this huge lecture session from God, like we are in class or something. I mean while we are in high school we want it to be more like college and when we get to college and get over our head we want it to be more like high school. Easier, right? So God created this mystical way of telling us about stuff. I love you! or You're mine and ok! I woke up to the sound of my wife in the shower today. Wow. He told me "You ARE mine and You Are ok! I guess this is the "Rob Bell" theory.



Carla:
I love you so much and you mean the world to me. I feel that I don't tell you enough and that's probably a good thing. You've been through everything with me and that's insane since we've only been together for a short time. I don't ever want to be away from you! I LOVE YOU! I hope you have an amazing day!

Love,

Matt

New HOuse.

So we are in our very own house. We've waited for at least 6 months on this house and we've finally got it. i love it so much. We slept there for the first night on Saturday night. That was the best sleep i've had in awhile!!! I love my wife and everything about my life right now. i wish i could be making alittle bit more money but then i guess i wouldn't be so dependent on God for everything. It's a "catch 22" i guess. So I wish i had more to say but... that's about it. So til later. See yah!

I am going to make a really good post soon of my house. We need pics and help moving....some...So if you know of anyone who want's to help. Saturday afternoon we are there! Thanks and stay tuned!

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!

*this pics for ryan!

Love, Later, Bye,

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.)


Love, Later, Bye

-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!

Love, Later, Bye,

Matt
