JADYN AUBREY CARTER turns 1....

Jadyn is 1... we are so excited for Rachel and Bryan, and she is growing so big!!! I got to head to Augusta on Friday early morning the 4th and celebrate this special day with her and our family!! She is so precious now, hard to believe that a year ago we were waiting on her to arrive, and now she is already 1, and walking and talking like crazy!! It was so much more fun on her birthday watching her open her gifts.. Christmas was nice, but she def. is more into them now for sure!! She was too cute, how she would open all her cards and hold them, and smile. She is a sweet, loving happy little girl!! Rachel and Bryan are truly blessed, and I have found being an AUNT is the best thing ever!!!...


It was wonderful as well to spend a day with my brother and parents. I dont' get to see them much, so it was a wonderful trip all in all. Princess came as well, and got to see all her cousins and big sister!! 


Here are some pictures to capture this fun weekend!!
HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY SWEET JADYN. LOVE YOU

!!!! NEWS !!!!

Hey everyone, there is so much that has been going on with us the last two weeks!! I have not been able to really blog and share, due to waiting for the official word!! 
Patrick is the New Head Coach of Harnett Central High School in Angier NC. We are so excited and can't wait to start this new chapter in our lives!!!


On the 18th I blogged about how we visited friends in Coats, NC.. We were there as well for this job interview. Patrick actually worked and coached JV football for 3 seasons before moving to SD and AR. So this is home for him.. He also graduated and played high school football at a sister city right next to Angier. I am so excited for him and us. We have been waiting for 2 weeks now, and completely blessed with God's timing and how everything has worked out!
Patrick got the official word on Friday the 25th, and then got the meeting and press conference date set on Thursday 2nd.. It was a long wait, but our families are so excited for us, and even though it takes us a little farther from my family, they can't wait for us to start this chapter as well.


Patrick went up there this past weekend, 4th-5th of June to have his press conference, meet the team and the principal. He did a wonderful job at the press conference and there were some awesome articles written about him as well. 


He will now be traveling to NC and staying during the week days to work out with the team and prepare for fall. Please pray for him and us as this summer approaches. Today he left for the first week away, and it is harder on me then I thought it would be :( .. 
So for now Princess and I count down the days to see him again.  We also will be making a trip up there to see daddy and house hunt, so please pray for that next step as well.

Weekend in NC and Softball Party!

This was a fun weekend for sure! We headed to Loris, SC on Friday night to see Patrick's parents, and stop halfway. We were headed to Coats, NC to visit some wonderful friends of ours! WE had such a great time!!
I got to see my Plate Rack from my Father n law!! I absolutely love it.. and of course I somehow found my way to Kohl's to get some more Fiestaware!!


We left early Saturday morning from Loris and went to Coats! We were there before lunch and had a wonderful time hanging out with Brittany and JB. We did some girl things that afternoon, and met back up with the boys for dinner and renting a movie for the night!.. But not before stopping by and getting some wonderful Ice Cream from a place called Sunny Sky's... :) 


Sunday morning we headed back to Charleston, as Patrick had a softball end of the year party at 2pm. It was a lot of fun, we got the ice cream and the team each brought items for the cookout! They grilled hamburgers and the girls and parents played softball together.  Needless to say Patrick hit 2 home runs, NICE JOB HONEY!!... it was a great day all in all! :) 


I always hate to see the weekends end, but I am enjoying my job greatly, and so the week days I am finding are just as fun!

Blessings

Lately it has been one of those times, when you are extremely blessed and God keeps showing He is in control and doors open that you are blown away, kind of times!
And no I can't yet explain what news we are so excited about.. But God is working, and we are praying and seeking Him right for the right doors to continue to open and the right things to fall into place! 


However, I am excited that this weekend we get to go see JB and Brittany Bennett.. He was a groomsmen in our wedding, and the time I have spent around Brittany, shows how sweet of a person she really is!


One more day until the weekend!!


Caswell, keeps me pretty busy all the time, but he is so good and def. fun to watch!!


Keep us in your prayers!! We will post soon, with God's blessings~~

So prom night was this past weekend! Patrick was asked if he would Chaperone prom and get paid, so OF COURSE he said yes!! ;) It was a fun night for sure. We decided to go and spend sometime as well with some other coaches, and their wives/husbands. It was good time, had by all. 
I was excited to get to wear again my Rehearsal Dinner dress, and Patrick even found a Purple tie to match!! 
As we left prom, we decided to all go to Applebees for 1/2 price App. (everyday 1/2 price after 10:30pm).  
It was a late night, and I felt completely too old, but it was SO MUCH FUN!!

HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO

If there is a reason for me to celebrate something or cook something special, I am all about it!!
I was so excited about CINCO DE MAYO! We love Mexican, so I decided to make a big mexican dinner and celebrate in the Turner house.  We served black beans, rice, salsa, chips, Gordita's, Tacos, beef and chicken and all the other fixins. It was SOOO GOOD!!


Love days like today!!


HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO, everyone!!

I HAVE A JOB!!

I feel so blessed, and truly thankful that God has provided me with a wonderful JOB!  In between our busy weekend, it was also a wonderful blessing! During our Game night, Laura Romeo informed me she had a friend who's friend was looking for a Nanny for a 5 month old son. :) I told her sure I was interested and gave my number to her friend to pass along.  Needless to say on Sunday Anna Greta Taylor called me and informed me of them needing a Nanny, and asked if when I got home from the Picnic if I wouldn't mind coming over and interviewing for the position. 
So sure enough as soon as I was back in West Ashley I headed the 4 mile away trip for the interview!! :) 
We quickly realized we go to the same church and they were at one time in the same Newlywed Class with the Caldwell's.  
We had a wonderful interview, and they told me they would talk to me in a few days, they were interviewing some more. 
Well about 2 hours later, they called me and said after speaking to Marianne Caldwell and talking since I left, they felt as though they wanted to hire me!!! I WAS SO EXCITED!!!


Little Caswell is 5 months old on May 15th! He is super cute, and such a good baby!!


I am watching him durning the days from about 6am or 8am until late afternoon/evening.  A few times needing to stay 24 hours with him. 
I am having such a great time. I started officially last Wednesday the 5th! 
Thank you Lord for blessing me with a job, and for everyone who has been praying for us~ :) 
It is a temporary but Full time job, until the first week of August~

A Busy but FUN weekend!

So the last weekend of April proved to be a busy but FUN weekend for us.  It all started on Friday night the 30th. We attended Dinner for 8 at Kyle and Leigh's house! It was so much fun. We had a wonderful Grilled out Dinner with AJ and Tassi, Kyle and Leigh, and Morgan and Robert.  We were very full afterwards :) .  
Saturday was not a very lazy normal saturday either.  May 1st was celebrated with a wonderful GAME NIGHT, hosted at our home!  We had 6 wonderful couples over, and found ourselves having so much fun, we all did not leave until after midnight!! 
Scrabble was def. in the mix, some Balderdash and of course guys vs. girls in DISNEY SCENE IT!  :) It was a blast!!


Sunday was another fun, and busy day as well!  We all attended our regular 9am service at church, and then our Sunday School class decided to do Sunday School at our Teachers house. Followed by a wonderful Picnic on the lawn, and great yard games!! It was a BEAUTIFUL Charleston day as well!! 


WE love our Church family very much, and the wonderful relationships we are building!


~we also said goodbye for the summer to Hilary and Nathan!..see you guys in August~
