Almost Spring?

Image
Green grass. Flowers. Flip flops. Cookouts. Baseball. Washing my car outside. It's almost here. This winter I have been waiting patiently for spring. I'm content in the now, but man, green grass sure is going to be beautiful again :) Since it is almost spring, I thought it might be time to take down the Christmas cards on the fridge! In the hopefulness of spring, Adam and I went to Home Depot on Friday and bought a grill with our wedding gift cards :) He made some great hamburgers! We are excited about this next season in life! Come on Spring!

Good times and great friends!

We are surely blessed with great friends. Adam and I both have some really special friendships. Some have formed recently and some formed many years ago in our childhoods. Last weekend we went to Charlotte for the weekend and spent some time with my family and some friends from Team Church. They were God's answer to prayer for me, and they welcome Adam with open arms :) When we got there it started to snow... and we actually got to see it fall from the sky! The back yard :) I have waited so long to have snow! It was picture worthy, even if in Pajamas! Greg, Brandi, Me and Adam @ Moms Saturday night we had a Valentine's Dinner at the Petko's. It consisted of Fondu, Salad, Spaghetti and Meatballs and Bananas Foster! AMAZING to say the least! Scott, Kristi and Baby Brooks Brad and Margaret (Soon to be Saab's)  Josalynn and Michael Petko Adam and I And the whole gang! Such a great weekend!

This was my first trip up to Dillard, Georgia. It's near the Georgia/North Carolina border and a few minutes from Franklin, NC where Adam and I went 4th of July 08 with a group of friends before we started dating. We went Thursday and came back Saturday night. The goal (or at least mine) was to get snowed in. We didn't see much snow coming out of the sky, but we drove North until we saw some. Good thing was we didn't have to drive far. Just up to Highlands :) I made rice krispie treats for the trip. Below is a picture of the sign above the door. Cute!   We drove to see Bridal Veil Falls, the one over the road. The other where we are standing is called Dry Falls. It was so pretty with the snow.  Adam loves Dr. Pepper :)

My Jesus - Todd Agnew

Which Jesus do you follow? Which Jesus do you serve? If Ephesians says to imitate Christ Then why do you look so much like the world? Cause my Jesus, bled and died He spent His time with thieves and liars He loved the poor and accosted the arrogant So which one do you want to be? Blessed are the poor in spirit Or do we pray to be blessed with the wealth of this land Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness Or do we ache for another taste of this world of shifting sand Cause my Jesus bled and died for my sins He spent His time with thieves and sluts and liars He loved the poor and accosted the rich So which one do you want to be? Who is this that you follow This picture of the American dream If Jesus was here would you walk right by on the other side Or fall down and worship at His holy feet Pretty blue eyes and curly brown hair and a clear complexion Is how you see Him as He dies for Your sins But the Word says He was battered and scarred Or
