ASA GABRIEL WHITE IS HERE!!

One of my dearest and best friends Miranda White and her husband Derek welcomed little Asa into the world on Monday Jun 28th. We are so excited for both of them!!
Miranda was a bridesmaid in my wedding, and college roommate! I love her dearly!! She told me before the wedding, and it is hard to believe at that time she was only 11 weeks! Time has sure flown by.


Asa Gabriel was 8 lbs 3 oz, 20 1/2 inches and was born at 7:19pm on the 28th!


CONGRATULATIONS, you will be wonderful parents! WE LOVE YOU ALL!

Our first gift/ item for our NEW HOME!!

We are so blessed to have wonderful friends and people in our lives. Patrick while living in Fuquay before, worked for The Turner family. They are a precious family, who I have grown to love very dearly. Patrick is staying with them this summer, while we are in the process of moving and him needing to be in NC already. We are so thankful for them!!
This family has meant so much to Patrick through the years, and they now do to myself as well. 

Today they purchased a wonderful gift for our home! I am so excited about these wonderful new additions to our house!!
THANK YOU Mr. Jim and Mrs. Rachel!

House Hunting has begun

We have begun our House Hunting search and so far we have found several that we like. Patrick gets to go look at them durning the evenings and I get online to see pictures and details. We have found a wonderful one, as of last night. I am very exited to get there and see it.. Patrick comes home Friday and I follow him back on Sunday evening. Monday we will get to look some more, and at this one especially!!


Hopefully we will be placing an offer soon.. So praying that it goes smooth, that God opens doors, and that all the loans and everything fall into place!!

Weekend in Loris

On Friday evening when Patrick arrived back in Charleston, he was greeted also by his brother, Matthew and our sister n law Rayna . We are very blessed to have had them stay with us on Friday evening on their way to Loris for a week of vacation. :) 
We got to spend some time with them and our niece and nephews, Maddie, Reese and Logan. 
They also brought Annie their Lab to stay, and Princess found a new friend. 
We headed downtown and showed them around, and then went out to eat and get some amazing SEAFOOD!.. 


We got up early on Saturday and we all headed to Loris, to see Patrick's parents.  That evening we celebrated Maddie's 5th birthday and Logan's 1st . It was such a fun time, and wonderful food as always. 
Sunday we enjoyed a great day at Patrick's dad's church, before heading back to Charleston, and Patrick heading back to NC. 


It was hard to say goodbye to him for another week, after such a busy and short weekend. But it keeps me busy to count down the days to see him again.. :) Friday can hurry up though!!!

Wonderful Blessings!!

God is continuing to bless us with our move to NC.  I got reconnected with a girl from College a few months back, Kaley Holt Saffain. She was the captain of the cheerleading team my first year at NGU in 04-05. She graduated and got married not long after. Kaley was always such a great friend my first year!! Well after we found out the news that we were moving to the Raleigh area, I contacted her about a post she was advertising for.. She needed a Nanny to start in August, in Garner NC close to were we are moving.. :)
ANd of course after contacting her, she said it was a prayer answered, and we are in the process of confirming the Job..!! I am so exited!! It is the same pay I now have as a Nanny, and would be a huge blessing!! (I don't want to return to a desk job, and I know God has heard my prayers).

As I have been so thrilled the last few days with this news, she contacted me today, telling me she would like to know if I wanted to help her start an Allstar Cheerleading program.. She is in the process and needs some coaches!! UM.. YES!!!!!!

So it looks like NC, not only is a blessing but a GOD SEND!! and I am so excited about the friends we know there, the ones we are meeting and the opportunities already for us!! Thank you Lord, and thank you friends and family for your prayers~~~
