It's Been a Long While

I think I stated earlier that I'm not always the best at keeping up with journals of any sort. Point in case...

Life is really great right now. I am so glad that I moved to Knoxville! God has big plans for me here, but I admit I'm struggling a little bit in getting motivated.

The Brackneys have moved back to Michigan. That breaks my heart. Sarah, Sydney and Landen were like my nieces and nephew. I babysat for them for the last time in TN on Tuesday. Landen has a perfect record for going to bed pleasantly. That child is going to be the most laid back, funny kid on the planet. The girls are gorgeous and, with any luck, they will be as spunky and awesome as April and Miss Rita.

I have a new addition to my family! Three and a half weeks ago, I got a beautiful little boxer puppy. His name is Jax Rian! He's the cutest thing ever! Sam and I agreed to get a dog. He has a house and no one else to share the space. What better to complete his redneck personality than a big tough dog?! Actually, Jax is a big push over. He's very smart and we're having a great time training him.

Sam, Jax and I are headed to Michigan this weekend! I'm so excited! We're going to spend time teaching Jax how to swim at Grandma and Grandpa's. Then, Sunday, we're headed up to Mackinaw City with Mom, Dad and Dan. We're going to camp and then walk the Mackinaw Bridge on Monday! Sweet deal, yo! I'm pumped about being back in Michigan. It's been too golldarn hot here!

Well, back to work... Of course things pick up right when I'm getting ready to go to lunch... Alas...
