Long weekend

Jon and I had a good LAZY weekend! We were planning on going to Birmingham on Friday because Mr.Wiggles needed his last round of shots...BUT..the cable guy could only come Saturday or 2 weeks from Saturday! SO, we had to stay here and wait for him. UGH! We were even more annoyed because they told us they would be here between 2-4 and it was 5:30 before they even showed up! Annnnnoooooyyyyyiiiinnnnnggg! :)

So, how about the CRIMSON TIDE?!? Wow, I was SO nervous during the game! Jon will tell you I could hardly eat my dinner! Bama always makes me SO nervous. BUT, they looked REALLY good! :) I can't wait to see how they play the rest of the year!
Jon and I were both saying on Saturday how GLAD we were NOT to be in Auburn on game days. We DO NOT miss game day traffic and I DO NOT miss my house being wrecked after weekend visitors. 

On Sunday, we decided that we wanted to start looking for a church up here. While we were out driving last week, we saw Asbury Methodist Church. HUGE church. We decided that we would try it out! We were running a bit late on Sunday morning (OF COURSE!) and had to hustle to get there on time. Luckily, it takes all of about 10 minutes to get there! 
We got there and I couldn't believe how many people were in their Contemporary Worship service. I'd be willing to guess there was 300+ people in there EAISLY. 
The music was uuuunnnnnrrreeeaalll! I mean, SERIOUSLY. They sang songs that are on 93.7 wdjc, so I knew most of them. It was a VERY worshipful time for me on Sunday. Something I definitely needed! 
The preacher was great as well. He was really funny. He kept my attention the entire time. :) All in all it was a great service. We will definitely be going back!
Jon really liked the service as well. (I am so glad he is now a METHODIST! haha! He is finally seeing the light! NOW, just gotta make him a BAMA fan!)

I hope to be able to announce next week what I've been working on! :) NOW, to keep you in suspense until I tell what it is.. haha...

Well, I had better run and start cleaning this house! :)

Have a great week!

Blessings and Peace,

Just an update...

I can't believe its already FRYday! This week has come and gone so fast! 
Pat (aka the blonde angel), has been in town visiting for the week, which has been fun. I know he was wanting this week to go by slow, but it has done the opposite! 

I had a WONDERFUL birthday. Of course my mom out did herself and gave me WAY to much. I do, however, LOVE it all! My favorite being a necklace from this girl: http://www.etsy.com/view_transaction.php?transaction_id=17732568. 
It is absolutely adorable and I will wear it everyday! :) Thank you, mom! You are ALWAYS so thoughtful and always do WAY to much. Thank you for EVERYTHING! 
 My sister did WAY to much as well.  I love my dresses and Ulta gift card! THANKS, Natalie!

Jon and I start the moving process today. We go and sign paper on our new apartment this afternoon. We are going to go ahead and fill up both cars and take a load since we can get our keys today! We are SO excited. Jon is thrilled to have a job. I can't express how proud of him I am. :) Ill take some pictures today of our new place and post them tonight when we get home!

Mr. Wiggles has been a bit under the weather the past few days. Wednesday night, he woke me up coughing off and on. So I took him to the vet yesterday. They said he had a cold, so they gave me a steroid to help his throat. Well, last night it got worse. Poor little man didn't sleep to good. He is coughing and now sneezing like you wouldn't believe. I called the vet and I am waiting for them to call me back. Hopefully, I won't have to take him back in today. I am hoping they will just tell me to come get him some different medicine. Jon and I decided that since we love our vet so much, we are going to keep them for our primary vet. We will get another one in Huntsville to keep in case of emergency, but will be bringing him back down here for all his important vet stuff! ;) 


Well, I need to go and help Jon do some last minute packing! Ill post pictures tonight of our new little apartment! 

Blessings and peace,

Falling into place..

Things are FINALLY going on the up side for Jon and I! Today was so much fun! My mom, Jon, and I all went to Huntsville to fill out an application for an apartment that Jon and I fell in love with. It is SO nice.  We filled out all of the paper work and the lady said she would get back to us in a few days with the results of the application. I told her that tomorrow was my birthday, so we needed an early birthday present of more good news for Jon and I! hehe..

After doing that we went to the Bridge Street Town centre to have lunch.  I have to say that I am in LOVE with this shopping center! They have a lot of great stores including JUICY COUTURE!!! :) (YES, YES I am OBSESSED with Juicy!) 
We went and had lunch at Cantina Laredo and it was the BEST mexican food I have EVER had. It was a little pricy, but totally worth it! If you ever go, I HIGHLY suggest the guacamole. They make it fresh at your table. Absolutely delish!! 

After having lunch we walked around a bit and headed back to Birmingham. Jon and I went to Best Buy this afternoon to do a little price comparison! (Can't tell why, its a secret! hehe) While we were in Best Buy my phone rang. It was a 256 area code and I threw the phone for Jon to answer! It was the lady from the apartments we wanted. She was calling to let us know that....

She had an early Birthday present for me.....

WE GOT THE APARTMENT!! :) 

Not only that the rent had gone down by $30 a month today. Jon and I are STILL on cloud 9. We get to move in earlier than we thought as well! We move NEXT SATURDAY!! SO thankful that I really didn't unpack anything from our move from Auburn. Just got to go to dad's office and decide what I want to take and what I am going to leave in his storage area. Lots to do between now and next saturday. :)

I am beyond excited and thankful for this new opportunity for Jon and I.  I couldn't be ANY more proud of my hubby. He has been busting his butt to get this job and it has paid off. 
Jon and I have been through a LOT from before our wedding until now. I can only pray that this is a turn for the better for Jon and I.  I couldn't imagine going through this with anyone, other than my amazing husband.  

So to Jon..I am so BLESSED to be your wife. Thank you for CHOOSING me as your wife . I am MORE than excited about our new adventure that we are about to embark on. You make me the HAPPIEST girl in the world. I can't wait to see what else God has in store for us. I LOVE YOU..
