Update

It's been a while since I blogged, so I thought I've give an "update" blog.

Donald is working 3 days a week and the other two he is doing stuff with our church. Even though school is out, he has been super busy!  He has been sub-teaching for various Sunday School classes the last few weeks and for the next two weeks.  He has also been teaching a series on "How we got the Bible" for the Wednesday night Bible Study.  I've really enjoyed getting to hear him teach and seeing how passionate he is about the Word.  Also a few Sunday's ago he preached a message on Sunday night.  I love watching this man preach.  I am looking forward to him being my pastor one day!! When we go home in a few weeks he will be preaching at my sisters wedding (a mini sermon) and then preaching at NCBC on Sunday morning. 

I am still working and trying to find a teaching job.  Unfortunately, is does not look good at all! But I will keep putting myself out there and trying to find something!! On Monday I have been summoned to jury duty! Donald is a little jealous because he would love to serve on a jury, but I am not as excited! Knowing my luck I'll be picked to actually serve! We'll see! I'll keep you informed!

We have had a slightly "rough" week! Last Friday we had the pest control people come because we have seen a "Texas Bug" (aka Waterbug) and so we thought we would call before we saw more.  Well, they seem to have made the problem worse.  This week we had seen 4! Yesterday morning Donald found one (bug #3) sitting in our cup cabinet when he went to get a coffee mug and that was the final straw for him!  So yesterday afternoon he clean under the stink, like scrubbed it down and  filled in any holes, we think that's how they are getting in.  BUT we were wrong and I found another one last night.  We are mortified.  We are scared to go into our kitchen in fear of being attacked by bugs.  I want to move, but I think they are everywhere.  We are hoping that the last one was already in the house before we filled in the holes and we will not see anymore.  And the worst part, we ran out of bug spray with number 2, so the last two we have been dealing with without any defense mechanism.  I will be getting more when I go to Wal-mart, even if it causes me to go over my grocery budget, yes its THAT bad!

We are so looking forward to our "vacation" in a week and a half! (I say "vacation" because I am not too sure how much of a vacation it will be!)  Kari and Matt are getting married and we will also be going to Philadelphia with Jackie and Jared and then to the beach, and then to Lynchburg.  I will have to say that I am excited that we do not have to drive.  We decided it was actually going to be cheaper for us to fly because after the rental car, gas, food, and a hotel each way we were going to spend close to $800 and we were able to find tickets for around $580.  Woohoo!  And we will be able to spend more time there cause we will not be in the car for 4 days of our 12 day vacation!

Whelp, I guess that's all.  I leave you with some pictures from our last little adventure!
