Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving was awesome..We had about 30 people at my moms and everyone brought food and it was just a good time to be around family and friends. We definitely missed Jamie but so thankful that I got to spend 20 great years with him. We all miss him like crazy but I will never forget the things he taught me...include riding a bike. But I am thankful for having a big family and even though there are different beliefs we are still a tight nit family and I love it. Very thankful for them and the promise I will continue to stand on for them. Me and my house will serve the Lord!!!!



It was also my 1st day back at Huddle House. I am picking up some extra shifts to get some extra money for the holidays! So the first night was a little slow but still made some good tips.






Here are some pictures from our Thanksgiving!

Fun Weekend

So this weekend Kristen and I ran off to Dawsonville to the outlet malls. We had a great time...We got there around 11 and didnt leave until 840ish....Needless to say we were very tired and our feet hurt...but we got some great deals and some gifts for babyshowers and Christmas!
Speaking of which....we might be getting a REAL Christmas tree!!!! I haven't had a real tree in forever!!!! So I am definitely excited...Hopefully we can find one for a good deal!

And today we had our pastor appreciation sunday....and it was a surprise! We didn't tell them we were doing it and people got up and shared words for them and it was just amazing! We have an awesome Pastor and his wife is just as amazing...I love them both very much!!!!

Also I went to a babyshower for Deborah Anne and it was so much fun! SS is getting bigger by the min and I can't wait to meet Hampton Cole in Dec!

I am definitely blessed to have sooo many great friends and family!!!


On another note....For some reason I have been lonely to be in a relationship and so ready to settle down and I was thinking how much I want to love someone and to be loved and spend time with that person and the Lord sooo flipped it on me...He told me Jessica now you know how I feel....I long so badly to be loved and to love on my children...Only if they let me. I want to have a relationship with you and them and I want you and them to spend time with me too....And my heart just dropped. How often do I set and dream about spending time with the person I will love when God (Abba Father) wants to spend time with me. The other day at church we talked about God being Daddy God and I have always known that God is our Father....But it clicked to me...I haven't REALLY had that kind of relationship with God as my Daddy....He wants to know how I feel...He wants me to talk to him as my Daddy....So I have a whole new outlook and relationship with God and I have to work on it but its amazing!!!!
