well its about time

So...adam figured out what our username and password was...since i am horrible with those and i decided it was time for us to post on here. Ill start with the most current news...we are househunting!! We have been for about a month now and although we are extremely picky (we aren't settling) we are sure that God has the perfect first house for us. It helps that our best friends up here are realtors...so we go like almost everyday. Its fun to imagine living in different spaces and how you could change it. We are also beginning to discover more and more each day about why God moved us up here. We have become very attatched to our church family and finding more ways to serve there. We have found about 3 couples that we adore and spend most of our time with..and some singles too :). I feel bad that I have latched on to so many people up here, b/c to be honest I have noticed that i call old friends less. I really do miss my time at Auburn and the friends I had but I know that life is full of changes and holding on to those times is standing still..not growing. Adam and I are also in the middle of a time of prayer for his future. He is in between going back to get his PhD and moving around some this summer to work at different digs...not that he can't choose both but that both decisions require some sort of sacrifice. I am eager to see what is in the future for Adam, b/c as we all know you can't find a more genuine person that loves to serve. I am in my second semester as a graduate student and even though working during the day and going to school at night isn't my first choice I know that in 3 semesters I will accomplish the goal that I have had for about 7-8 years now. I love being in the high schools, especially the clay classes. I am also getting my ESL certification, so I can use that in missions. Other news is that my dad got a motorcycle...now this may not seem significant enough but it overwhelms me. My dad has also been a work horse, never allowing himself to reap any reward or get time off.....he feels guilty when he has spare time or buys things for himself. He recently found a motorcyle that he liked and went home to discuss it with my mom. She told that he "wasn't getting any younger and that he deserved it"....So he went back the next weekend and bought it, along with, in his words, a "steller helmet", luggage rack and something else that flew over my head. His doctor advised him against it since he has bad neck problems but my dad says he wont let that keep him from it. He seriously rides the motorcycle every day!!! He even jumped at the chance to work nights so that he could ride his motorcylce more during the day..that was just for 2 weeks but still. He has also managed to lose his cell phone while on it. A man called my mom from my dads cell phone # and told her that he saw the phone fly out of a man pocket who was riding a motorcycle...hilarious. He is so happy and he sooo deserves it!! So anyways, enough of that....we will start posting more frequently.....we promise!! A thought to leave you with...... Your talk talks and your walk talks, but does your talk talk louder than your walk talks? (from a disciple now we did 2 weekends ago...it sounds elementary but really stop and think about)
