Long Time.. Happy Birthday Carrie Franks

So it's been a long time since I have blogged. I have a little busy body on my hands these days and I do not have time to sit down and type. We have also been a busy little family. John came home this past Tuesday PRAISE GOD because we he got home and got settled, mama called and was on her way with Jacob to the ER. I immediately headed to West Point when mama called back to let me know it was something just didn't know what. Well we found out it was Appendix and he had surgery the following morning. Jacob did not do so well immediately following surgery because he wouldn't really eat which meant he threw up his pain meds and it was just a slow go at first. Now he seems to be doing a lot better; he just has a long way to go before he will be back to Jacob. Please keep praying for him and mama too!!! We had family pictures done Thursday night and Catherine Williams did a FANTASTIC job. Every picture is great. I have a very hard decision to make. If I am lucky maybe she will let me post some of my favorites on here!!! We'll see. Even Johnathan was impressed! Thanks Cat!!!! John worked a lot while he was home but we did get to see a lot of him. Saturday we spent the entire day at the lake with Jimbo, Jenn Jenn, Landon, and Isaiah Conner. Savanah was at the coast with a friend. John came by and the boys played football all afternoon and we just hung out. It was great. Saturday night, Johnathan and I had "date" night alone. Granny kept Braedon cause Grandma was down. It was enjoyable. The rest of the weekend was laid back and rainy. John let me take a 3.5 hour nap Sunday and he cooked supper so that was WONDERFUL. He has gone back to work now so he is well missed. This is Tender Years last week to be open which is sad. Central Academy is taken on the day care starting next week. We leave for the beach Saturday which is great. Carrie Franks birthday is also Saturday so HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARRIE.... WE LOVE YOU!!!!
I have taken the 4th grade teaching position at Picken's Academy in Carrolton, Al. This was an extremely difficult decision for me and John to make but its made. I am excited, overwhelmed, and nervous, but I think I will be fine.... I know my favorite Coach and his wife will take great care of us. Braedon will be going to a local daycare over there too. I am not thrilled at all about being away from him but I think I will make it. I will let everyone know how that goes but I am sure my heart will be broken. 1st time to work away from him. Pray for me. Johnathan takes his final class to be a river boat captain on August 17th. I ask everyone to remember him in your prayers as well. This is great and means great things for our family but it is also sad because we both know he will never be able to come home and make the money he is about to be making.
I ALMOST FORGOT... BRAEDON IS OFFICIALLY WALKING. I cannot believe it but he is walking more than crawling now. He is a little wobbly but he can do it. My baby is growing up. Have a great week everyone.
