Back for Now


So, let's see...it's been 2 1/2 years since I last posted...

What has happened since then? Well, some major milestones. I finally finished "Prince Caspian."

...What? It started moving really slow about three-quarters of the way through!

We bought our first house in a nice little neighborhood in July 2009. That was pretty super until our nice, family-of-four neighbors across the street moved to Cinco Ranch and a guy and his girlfriend moved in, subsequently broke up, she moved out and now his garage and driveway is the premier hangout for 16- to 24-year-old street racing amateur mechanics that apparently subsist on carbon monoxide gas fumes and pot smoke...Just to sum up.

Oh, and we had a BABY. Sweet baby James, the cutest kid I've ever seen...and it's not because I'm biased because he's mine. He really is the cutest baby ever. Really!

I quit working full time at Performing Arts and now I only work 1 day a month...it's a pretty great deal. I get to keep it on my resume` and work mostly from home doing contract sewing jobs and take care of James (since, honestly, I didn't make enough to pay for childcare anyway--it's actually cheaper for me not to work).

LOST ended. Major fail.

JT lost his job at Copperfield Church, and now we have started a new church in Northwest Houston--Storyline Fellowship! Our first meeting is going to be on Sunday, May 1st at 6:30 PM at the home of Mark and Irma Davis.

Four people in our (then) Small Group had baby boys in the span of 2 1/2 months in 2009--the Louckses, the Mengers, the Greenes, and the Neilsons (not in that order). As of today, the Mengers just had their second baby, a girl named Emily June. The Yaws had twin girls in November 2010.

Jenny and Dylan made a temporary move to Mt. Pleasant, TX--a stopover on the way to a move to Houston and be a part of Storyline!

I now sleep on a KING SIZED bed...thank you 1st-time home buyer credit.

So much more than I can list! Hopefully I can start blogging "regularly" again, even though blogs are SO 2006. We'll see. I seem to be busier now than ever, though, so it seems it might be a pipe dream.
