Weekends!!!!

Has it really been almost 2 months since I posted?! Opps sorry! For a while I thought I would stop posting but every now and then this is fun...

A couple weekends ago Jason and Lauren came up for a Saturday/Sunday! (My brother and his FiancĂ©') She has the wedding dreams and crazy ideas flowing all the time. Charlie and I had many looks at each other with smiles... knowing she is right where I was not too long ago. Then I really did start thinking about Charlie and I... We have been married almost a year.... this is crazy... While this has not been an ideal 1st year we have had many adventures and have really enjoyed and desired to be together... I love Charlie more every day... The comfortable quiet of Sunday afternoon movies... the knowing that he is protecting and providing for me in the best way... I love you Charlie. 
This first year has been difficult and I think that is only because we were, unfortunately, away from each other for almost 3 months of the first year of our marriage. There was no way around it and we are now on the other side of that and I absolutely REFUSE to share him with anyone else even for a night of far away fishing... originally I wanted our first 6 months to be completely together every night but I realized that possibly that was unreasonable...

Anyways... So When Jason and Lauren came a coupe weekends ago we had so much fun! I have always enjoyed long conversations with my brother. He has such deep and good thoughts, the conversations are priceless. They asked us to be a part of their wedding day and we could not be more excited. I love the ability to support someone in the most important decision of his or her life! I could not support them more. My brother has so desired someone to compliment him and support him, and I truly believe Lauren is such a wonderful counterpart for Jason. We love her forever and could not be happier about having her as a part of the family.

Anyway so we had a great time talking of wedding and discovering our new area... Thank you for coming please come back WHENEVER you need a retreat from life...

Last weekend we went to GA on Saturday and Charlie finished his last job there.... his spirit and perseverance is incredible and I could not be more proud than to be the wife of a man that is so talented and incredible. I am proud of all of his accomplishments. I love you baby!

So now it is Sunday again and this weekend Charlie's parents came up and stayed with us. Charlie, Ben and Kyle went fishing yesterday and us girls walked all around Waynesville... We found all sorts of fun things, this morning we went to church where Ben and Anna have been going for a few months. I really liked it. It completely reminded me of the churches I grew up in. I hope we are able to continue to go there.

Another week of work is ahead of us.... followed by a weekend in Ellijay Mountains with my whole family including ISABELLA!!! I cannot wait!!!!!!

Ooo oh and Elizabeth (Charlie's Sister) finds out Monday if she is having a boy or a girl... yeah! How fun!!!
