Fun Saturday, Lame Night...:)

Today Jared and I spent the whole day together. Well, at least after he got up around 10:30. :) Unlike me, Jared LOVES to sleep in on Saturdays. But that's OK...he works really hard and deserves it. Me, on the other hand, well, I just think life's too short to sleep in. Jared still loves me. :)

We had a wonderful day, though, as we had lunch in Charlotte, went and saw "Bride Wars" (more for me than Jared...hehe), went to the mall and Lowe's and got ice cream before coming home just in time to watch the Hokies lose to Boston College (bummer...more for Jared than me). So, now, we're probably going to go to bed soon since we get up early to get a seat for the 8:30 service at our AMAZING church.

Until next time...enjoy the Super Bowl!

Ciao!

(This blog was dictated by Jared and typed by Jennifer)...haha. :) And yes, we need to find more productive ways to spend our time on a Saturday night than creating a lame blog post. ;)

Mr. Wonderful's Birthday!!! :)

Today is my amazing husband's birthday! He is truly the most incredible, caring, genuine, wonderful man I know! I could write a book about how sweet he is, but I have to finish getting ready for work....if I lost my job I guess it wouldn't be such a great birthday for him. :)

I love you so much, Jared! I am so blessed to have you in my life!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!! :)

Happy Friday to everyone! :)

Greetings all our blogstalkers far and wide. :)

It's Friday night at 11:09 p.m. and we are completely ready to go to sleep. Can you say, "OLD?!?!"

That's pretty much all we have to say...we have lots more we could blog about, but we're not really sure how to make it sound clever and creative. :)

Have a great weekend! :)

Happy New Year!

Wow...I cannot believe it is 2009 already! Jared and I had a truly blessed 2008. We saw God work in ways that were far better than what we could have ever planned out on our own. Yesterday we were discussing how very different we brought in the new year last year verses this year. Last year, Jared was working on the copy desk in Roanoke and I was sitting in a hotel room waiting for him to get finished...this year, we got to ring in the year at our amazing church in Charlotte! :)

We are excited to see what God has in store for us in 2009. This year, more than ever, we desire to be used by God in any capacity He so chooses. Our prayer is that in everything we say and do, people will see Christ in us. I found this quote by Beth Moore today that I thought was quite inspiring: "If we are to have any level of authenticity in our world, we must be filled with God-given character. Often the reason others aren't buying what we have to say is that they are unconvinced, based on our huge inconsistencies, that we have bought it ourselves." Everything that is happening in our world shows how desperate people are for fulfillment. Now is the time for all Christians to proclaim with boldness (and yet in a friendly, non-pushy way) that the only fulfillment to be found is in Christ. This is our prayer for 2009.

God bless all of you and we pray that 2009 be the best year you've had yet. :)
