open house :(

well - these are most of my angels. the one all the way in the front is isaiah. this was taken on his last day of school. which i thought would make my life a whole lot easier, but i got walter. he's all the way on the right with the bunny ears. walter doesn't know his times tables, can't divide, spell, or read really. so i'm slightly confused as to why he's in my class. anyway - i have been tutoring but it is definitely like pulling teeth. if you think of it pray for walter. the other kids in the class don't really like him so they make fun of him. its sad - we're working on it.


well the reason that i'm posting so late is we have an open house at school - so i'm sitting here doing nothing. pretty much no one cares about 6th grade. :) so i'm bored!!! so i thought that i would update!! pretty much that's all that's new. no houses recently. hopefully some will come up soon!

thanks so much for your comments - i do appreciate them!! have a fabulous night!

the ups and downs of home buying!!!

well - we didn't get the house. my mom said that that is the way it works. sometimes you put in a lot of offers and you still don't get the house. it takes awhile. well for someone like me who lacks patience it makes the situation difficult. especially since i got so stressed out about putting in the offer in the first place. oh well - there is another house like it that the realtor sent to us so we'll see. its disappointing but we know that God can provide.

anyway - another freezing cold week in southern pa. we can't seem to get a snow day if our lives depended on it. the stupid weather people will even say that we are getting snow and then we will get little or none. ugh!!! we could really use the rest found on a snow day. but once again we know that God can provide. :)

well - i hope that you all have a wonderful week. hey feel free to leave a comment. i do like responses - its like getting mail. :) (which if you would like to send would be great too. :))

Taking the BIG step!!!

well - mark and i are taking the big step today. we are going to make an offer on the house. we'll see what happens. part of the reason that we are doing it so soon is that we found out that there is another offer on the house so we wanted to get ours in. anyway - we're not sure what will happen so if you could be praying for us and the offer that would be wonderful. we do know that if we don't get the house it is God's will - He knows our needs and He will provide for us. This is another lesson in faith.



this is a picture of mark and i after our date night. we have to set these aside especially during basketball season. we went out to dinner and saw a movie (the first one in a very long time!!!). all of it was paid for with gift cards - gotta love it! anyway it was a lot of fun - so we took a picture!!! :)
we hope that you all have a fabulous day whether you're in the about to get rain/snowed on northeast or elsewhere!!! :)
