Jenn Engaged!

Ryan & Jenn have been friends for about 10 years. She has also become a sweet and wonderful friend of mine. She is an incredibly faithful person and encouragment to all who know her. We are so blessed to call her a sister in Christ and a precious friend.

Jenn started dating her Ryan about 2 months ago. They knew from the start that this was "it"! They are just loving love and one another and excited for the journey God has ahead of them.

Ryan started getting us involved in his engagement plan a couple of weeks ago. They came to Charleston for dinner on Friday night and Ryan planned to propose to Jenn on Saturday morning as a total surprise.

We went to dinner on Friday at the Boathouse and spent some time getting to know Jenn's new man. We had a blast with the two of them just hearing their love story. It was awesome to see a new relationship God had brought together and His perfect timing for their lives.



Saturday, Ryan woke Jenn up before sunrise and took her to Folly Beach to pop the question. He had her a Bible with her new name and had the ring wrapped in the fold of her favorite verse. He asked her and she said "yes"!!! These are some pictures of them from their big, exciting day!

Ryan had a surprise waiting later that day at California Dreaming where he had invited their families to celebrate their engagement. So sweet!


So, congrats Jenn & Ryan. We pray 1 Peter 4:8 for you two:
"Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins"
We love you and are so happy for both of you!!!!

On Faith and Suffering

Suffering....it is not an easy thing to bear up under. I feel that as life goes on, I am seeing more and more suffering around me. I have recently been through a tough season in my life. In the midst of difficult circumstances, it has caused me to look to God and question at times. I think sometimes in the Christian life, we are told, “Don’t question. Just believe. God is good all the time.” This, of course, is true but I think there is true beauty in the wrestling. In the coming out on the other side having a deeper faith because of where God has taken you on the journey. I have recently been reading in Hebrews and like God does, He somehow lined up the Scriptures and where I was reading to answer some of my questions right in the face. Questions like... “Why do people who love you have to suffer?” “I understand suffering is for your glory, but we already love you and are about your glory so do we have to go through it?” “Are you really big enough? Good? Faithful?” “Is it ...

Baby Jackson's Nursery

We are awaiting baby Jackson's arrival right now at 39 weeks and 4 days:) so, why not pass the time by sharing a few pictures of his nursery? We cannot wait to meet him and Ryan thinks that with the zoo/jungle theme we have going on in the nursery, Jackson is destined to be a zoo keeper.....we will see! I have had so much fun decorating and putting together his little room and I hope he loves it!!! Here is his crib with letters we made and a mirror that i love!!! His crib is from Target and the bedding is from Serena and Lilly  We got the letters from hobby lobby and then hot glued zoo animals onto the letters and the orange ribbon I was really into bamboo shades and love the way the windows turned out with the brown and white combo. His changing table is a dresser we got from the Pottery Barn outlet and then we got the cover from a shop on Etsy Ryan's dad repainted this rocking chair for Jackson. It was the chair that Ms. Cindy rocked Ryan and his brothe...

Lesson in the Messes

I am having a moment where I need some blogging therapy....been so long since I have hit the blogging scene but today I just felt the need for some bloggin'. At 9 am today, I was covered in poop and headed down the road of a full on melt down (me, not my 2 1/2 year old or my 10 month old---ME). We are in the throws of potty training and my type A self is taking accidents way to personally....am I alone here? I pray not.....Anyways, Jackson says he has to poop but I cannot get there because I am changing my 10 month old's poopy diaper and I tell him just to go in his Pull Up. Which I am going ahead and embracing Pull Ups after an accident soaking the entire couch and another one involving a fairly new rug!! Anyways, I finally got him out of his chair about 30 minutes later and there is poop everywhere- I mean EVERYWHERE...covering the chair, my son, his feet, his legs but I do not realize how much body surface is covered until I get him into his room and start changing him. I...
