Two Whole Months!

Wow! The time got away fro me! i cant believe that it has been two months since I posted any tihng! Bj and I are here and settled!! We bought three couches and an ottoman for the apartment. The little couch, love seat, and ottoman are the ones we have in the living room right now... The big couch is living in the trailor... We are going to try and sell it but have not had time to work on that. The apartment is all put together and I really love it. The office is a little cluttered but Its better than what it was! Let's see... bj is working at Sam's Club in the meat department as a meat wrapper. He doesnt really enjoy it but it is a job and it helps! I got a promotion at work and am now a shift supervisor! I get keys and everything!!! I have been doing a lot of closes at work... its really the easiest shift as a supervisor... so my manager has given me a lot of them, plus it reawlly works best with Bj's work schedule! Bj's in the midst of school and really liking it. He stayed up all night thursday night because he had a paper due... I cant really think of any thing new... this last week had beautiful weather! It was cool and windy all week and then on thursday it rained all day! Then yesterday and today get rewally hot and muggy again. They say its suppose the rain again this weekend but we will see... looks like clear skies to me outside! The Lord has been really good to us these last few month! He has provided in ways that were not expected and he has shown us great love and kindness! Thanks for all your prayers! See you in a few weeks!! I will add pictures when bj gets home and can show me how! HEHEHE

We are moved in...

On Tuesday afternoon at about 3:30pm we recieved the keys to our apartment and began moving in. It is a great feeling to finally have our own place to come home to at the end of the day. Here is stage 1 Here is stage 2 ...and well stage 3 is probably about a week out. We are making progress...slow progress though. However, we did sleep in our own bedroom the night we moved in with our own bed and sheets.

Blueberrie Picking






This week we also got to go bluberrie picking with Mrs. Olson. It was a lot of fun! it took me a while to figure out which ones to pick. After you pick them they dont ripen any more so you have to make sure that you actually pick ones that are ready. If they are really ready they almost fall off of the branch. And I found that the best palce to pick them was at the bottom of the bush! It was a ton of fun. We also picked blackberries.

Hey all!


Im sitting at Starbucks and I remembered that I have not blogged any thing in a really long time! Well since last time, Bj got a job and We got an apartment!!! We move in tommorow! I have not taken any pictures yet but we will tommorow and I will out them on! I cant wait! It is a two bedroom and its about 900 square feet! It will fit us well for a long time! Im hoping not to have to move until we leave to come home. we will see. Well we have still jsut been trying to keep ourselves busy! Went to the beach again this week and managed to sunburn myself again.. and I even put sun screen on! But its better now. We went to the Virginia Beach Aquarium this week too. It was really not worht the 23 dollars we paid to see it all but oh well now we know. We forgot to bring the camera with us... oops! The turtles were really cool though they were really big and beautiful and we touched the sting rays.

We have really enjoyed hanging out with the Olson's. They are a really neat couple and they take awsome care of their guests! Im a little sad to leave their house! We have been fed well!

Nothing Much going on...

Hello everyone! I havent been on here the las t few days because there has not been much going on. We are still waiting to hear from HSBC. Bj is suppose to hear by the end of the day. Bj says He is ok weither or not he gets the job, and oddly enough I fel the same way. The Lord knows what we are going through and knows what is best for us. We wouldnt want to get stuck at a job that would be awful for Bj. So we wait. I dont start work until the 21st and I cant wait to start again! I miss it so much. We are at the Greenbrier mall right now. Im sitting next to the little kids play area.... its nothing compares to PV malls. lol! We did go to the beach yesterday and play football inthe ocean. That was pretty fun! The water was great and it was over cast. In sunburned my face and Bj burned his back. Well... I dont want to bore you all to death so fro now I will say adios and write some more when I have something fun to say!
P.S. We are working on something really cool for the blog! Cant wait to show it to you all!

It looks Ferocious!!





After My interviewe was over yesterday we decided to head to the beach. It is only about 10 minutes from my store!! Super sweet! It is the Sandbridge beach and it is not as crowded as the Virginia beach. We stopped at walmart and bought some dollar flip flops(we were still in interview clothes and had not thought to bring our swimming sutff...) we get out there and the sky starts looking very dark and the clouds are coming very quickly... we park and start walking down to the beach. We noticed that a lot of people were leaving and we asked the life guard(there were only three on duty for the ENTIRE beach!) if they were making people leave. He looked up at the clouds that were coming towrard us very quickly and said, " Yeah... It looks FEROCIOUS!!!" So that was our new word for the day!! We took a few picutres and then headed out, it rained on us all the way home!
