Nashville is FLOODED!!!

Hello all!! Chris and I are blessed by God that we have not been affected as far as our home getting damaged from all of the rain, however, our church is under water. The first floor of our church is flooded and the Kindergarten where I have worked the past 2 years is attached to the church has tremendous amounts of damage. We are asking for your prayers for all of the people in Nashville and the surrounding areas affected by this flood. Studio 19, Chris' dad's studio which is on Music Row, could possibly have damage and we will find out tomorrow. What a crazy weekend. We lift up all those who have lost homes in this storm, that God will put His loving arms around them and protect them as they figure out what to do. This proves to be such a great reminder that no matter how hard life can be sometimes, that our "small problems" are just what they are. SMALL! Thanks be to God for those lives who have been spared....and for those lost....may God be with their families and friends in the days to come. We are thankful for all we have been given, and all the blessings in our lives. Each day is a gift and we are grateful for every day that God gives us. Much love from Nashville.....

2 more days!!!!

What a ride it has been! I have 2 more days and I will be finished with my Masters in the Art of Teaching! I am sorry for not posting very much these past few weeks! I have been so busy trying to wrap up all of the requirements for my student teaching. Chris' year so far has been very trying and different than last, but we are grateful for the opportunities at hand. He is currently trying to Monday Qualify for the Nationwide events each week, yet also trying to get to the E-golf events as well. It is not the most ideal situation, but we know that God is working this situation exactly as He has planned, and we are just carrying it out! Thank you to everyone for keeping us in your prayers and for encouraging us in every way possible. Chris is staying strong and I know that he is going to get going soon....it is just taking a little more time and patience! After I graduate on May 8th, I will have the opportunity to travel with him some and we are both so excited that I will be able to share some of his "road experiences" with each other. Let me just be the first to tell you.....it is really hard to go weeks at a time away from each other, but I do know that God has control of what our plan for the next few years will be! We are just living each day to the best of our ability to see what God has in store. May God bless each of you in the days to come and may He be with us in all that we say, think, and do. I will try to post our plans in the next few weeks!!! Much love from Nashville!!

Crazy Week!

Some weeks are boring, but not this week! WHEW! Chris and I got back from the Masters at 1 a.m. Monday morning and somehow I made it to school by 7:45. Even though I was there, I was not there! :) This week was really busy at school as the kids are getting ready to start TCAP testing tomorrow, which is the big state test given every year. Please pray that our 3rd graders will be ready! Chris left yesterday for Valdosta, GA. He will be trying to Monday Qualify again for the Nationwide event. He played a practice round today and played well. Bailey and I had a really fun day today. I went to the gym for a bit, then my friend Julia and I played tennis and took Bailey to a walking trail! It was lots of fun and BEAUTIFUL here! Bailey got a bath this evening and is now snuggled up next to me trying to warm up! We remain blessed for the opportunities we have and look forward to what tomorrow and this week bring for us! Thanks for your prayers and support! Much love from Nashville!!

Spring Break!!

Wow....I do apologize for not posting in FOREVER!!! I am on spring break this week from student teaching and I think my mind has been on spring break for a couple of weeks now! :) That is what happens when good weather comes around! Chris is currently in Wilmington, NC playing a tournament. We were in my hometown, Jackson, MS for Easter and had a great time seeing family and friends. We are now Godparents to our dear friend Carleen Harrison's son! Chris and I feel so blessed and honored to be Godparents and we are so proud of our new Godson. He is truly a blessing from God and we pray that we will be supportive in all he does in his life! I also got to see my Goddaughter, Emma, while I was in Jackson. She is such a sweet girl and we had so much fun hunting Easter Eggs after church and going to get ice cream at Maggie Moos! God has blessed my life with so many wonderful people! At Easter lunch, we had a house full of dogs. Bailey fell in LOVE with my Geedaddy! He kept giving her chips with dip on them! It was too cute! Don't worry folks....she got to run around with my cousin's dog after her lunch of chips and dip! Overall, it was a great weekend! Chris did have to fly out early Easter morning, but we are very thankful that we at least got to spend our first Easter together at church on Saturday night! The best part of it all is that we are going to the Masters on this coming Sunday! Although we can't take pictures there, we will take some after with all of the merchandise people want us to buy for them! :) We feel very blessed to have this opportunity to go and hopefully Chris will be playing it soon!!! Much love to all! Stay tuned for results from this week's tournament! Chris made the cut and is currently T37. Two more rounds to go!
