A thankful post

I haven't updated our blog in forever, so I decided this would be a good opportunity....

I can't believe we have been here in Batesville (Sulphur Rock, really but no one really knows where that is, ha!) for over 3 months now. We are still in our apartment, searching for a new house. We are both loving our new jobs! 14 kids in 2nd grade is heaven!!! :) And Rich spends his days seeing unusual things under bridges. We still miss all of our friends of course, but we are getting adjusted to life here.

I am so thankful for many things in our lives right now. I thought I would post just a few:
-family and friends (and going home for a visit this week!)
-new jobs that we both LOVE!!
-how close we have grown to God and each other through our infertility challenges.
-our marriage!
-and my laptop that keeps me connected to everyone! (haha! but really I am!!!)

I could go on and on, but I won't. We truly are blessed in so many ways and I am thankful! Hope everyone has a wonderful thanksgiving!

A look back....

Our 4th Wedding anniversary is on June 4th. We started dating at the end of May in 2003 so we've been together for 6 years now. So I thought I would make us a slideshow of pics from the past few years. Here a few pics I found...

A Wet Riverfest

A few pics from our Memorial Weekend at Riverfest in Little Rock. We don't have many pics because it rained ALOT! Most of the concert pics are from Gavin Rossdale. He was awesome!!! We also saw Tone Loc singing Wild Thing and Funky Cold Medina. Saturday we skipped Riverfest and spent a night at the Loony Bin.

Rich's New Job

I think most all of our friends have heard by now that Rich got a new job. He will be transferring from the Jonesboro office to the Batesville office. He is the Assistant Bridge Inspector. I am so proud of his new promotion! He will begin the commute on Thursday. Wish him lots of luck!!!

Only in Arkansas

Monday and Tuesday it was almost 80 degrees and I was wearing flip flops to school. Spring was in the air. Each day as I came home, I enjoyed our lonely pear tree starting to bloom. Then on Thursday it snowed! Only in Arkansas!?! Here are a few pics from the afternoon. Notice the blooms on the Bradford Pear.
