blog day

today is a big day. 4/24/09. why you ask? because one year ago today i started this blogging adventure. a scrapbook of life. tidbits from the journey of our life. this was then.

here we are one year older, a bit wiser, still looking forward to meeting and bringing home our adopted daughter "Bristol" from Ethiopia, still selling t-shirts to raise money to bring her home,graduated from babyhood to toddlerhood, many spankings later, shouting it out b/c there's one new heart for Jesus (yea sweet Briley), having more fun than ever, starting a new crazy-exciting journey in our life (another post on that), several ear infections later,making more friends, finished campaigning, playing harder, digging deeper, loving more, and what a buddy of ours would say "just livin' the dream"!

i thank God daily for the blessings He has given.i strive daily, but fail often, to live totally for Him.

we can still say..."there's never a dull moment".






and on a side note...if you have never been here. you need to go. it is inspirational. it makes you think. it is deep. it talks about life and living it for, and with, Jesus. it encourages. it is short. it is always to the point. it is my husband, Joey's, blog. i thank God for him and his heart and his faith and his love daily.

Courtney,
I enjoy your blog very much. I, also go to Joey's. I am always telling Joey's grandmother(Peggy) how I keep up with her family on the blogs. Your children are just precious!! A reflection of their mom and dad. Your light shines bright for Jesus!
