Nothing new going on here in Tennessee lately! We've been staying busy working around the house trying to get pictures & blinds hung, yard word done, & I've also tried to do some decorating. Thankfully, I have expereienced no sickness throughout the 1st trimester of my pregnancy...however, I have been SO tired that it's been hard for me to find the motivation or energy to do ANY decorating in our new house. Which for those of you who know me, you know that is completely not like me to live somewhere for over a month and not have these things already DONE. I LOVE to decorate and I usually won't stop until I'm happy with what I see or until I run out of money. ha :) My doctor tells me that I should have my energy back really soon and I am so thankful for that! Joshua leaves to go to Wynona, Minnesota July 12th for a month (SAD, I know!), to do some training for work, so I'm hoping to get a lot done while he's away. I'll have to stay busy so I don't think about him being gone so much!
We have LOVED being in our new house and we have really enjoyed having Joshua's cousin, Benjamin, and his wife, Heather right around the corner. Every week we switch back and forth and have dinner @ one another's house. Last night was our turn and I made a roast, homemade mashed potatoes, green beans, rolls, salad, & Edwards key lime pie for dessert. For not being the best in the kitchen, I must say, our dinner was DE-LISH! Afterwards, we all went outside so the kids could play with some water balloons that Joshua had bought for them (WAY TO GO JOSHIE!!) and we ended up playing with sidewalk chalk & the sprinkler too. We had a blast and it's so fun having something to do on the weeknights to break up the normal routine.

SPLAT!!
Also, my mom sent me these pictures yesterday of Bradley "in action" @ Hume Lake Camp...thought I would share them! He's having a blast and I have no doubt that the Lord is really using him & the band!!
Bradley with the band!

that is great that you aren't sick! i am always sooo sick with all my pregnancies, it seems to get a bit better with each one, or else i just have less and less time to think about it!
Gooood update. :O) That's great to hear that you haven't been sick. Big plus! Sounds like lots of fun to alternate weeks with the cousins for dinner. And great pics of Bradley too. When does the CD come out?!? Remember when you played some of his stuff for me on the way to meet the folks for the BGEA picnic? Would love to have a copy. ;o)
Ash, I know his CD is finished, but I've got to get him to send me a few copies. I'll see how we can get one!! :) I heard the un-edited version and its SO good!!! Of course, I'm biased. ;)
Don't worry, Christy, your energy will come back very quickly and you will feel great!!!
love ya!
It looks like y'all have fun with Joshua's cousins. That's good to have such good friends so nearby! Edward's Key Lime Pie? YUM!!!!!
Donna, I always think of you, Roy, and Dolly anytime I eat Edwards key lime pie!!! :) haha You were the ones who got me hooked!
Good to hear you are feeling well. and yummy to the key lime pie too! Look at you, Mrs. Homemaker!!
Good update Christy! I'm glad you haven't had any morning sickness but being so tired is hard too. Make sure you get in naps while you can.
