Life has been crazy busy around here with teaching, Addie's school, ballet, and most importantly Justin's schedule! We tried to prepare ourselves for his intern year, but I don't think one can truly prepare for his 90+ hour weeks. He is doing an ER rotation now, so thankfully, he only has four 12 hour shifts a week; it is going to seem like a holiday around here! Not to mention, we only have 5 more months until we move back down south to Birmingham, AL. We have already started the househunt and are excited about returning to a more "normal" lifestyle...one we are more comfortable with. </span></div><br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;">We pray you have a wonderful New Year and are anticipating all that God will do in and through us this new year!

<br /><div><span style="font-size:130%;">A day together is a rare treat these days, and Saturday was just one of those rare gems! Justin got home from the hospital at lunch, and we decided to make a quick trip to Gettysburg, PA. It is only an hour from us, so we knew it wouldn't take too long. We drove up a quaint highway and the scenery was beautiful! It is strange how just 30 minutes out of Baltimore can be so quiet and rural. The geography also changes a bit and becomes much more hilly.</span></div>

They flew in (which is saying a lot since my parents haven't flown commercially in a while) and Addie I drove to the airport to meet them! We had a tremendous time just being together and did venture out to do some "Baltimore" types of things. </span>
<br /><span style="font-size:130%;"></span>
<br /><span style="font-size:130%;">Addie was thrilled to be able to show them our apartment - especially her room! She is so proud of it! My Mom and Sister were busy taking pictures of everything, and Addie wanted in on the action. So, we let her take some pictures of us...she did a GREAT job! :)</span>

<br /><span style="font-size:130%;">More than anything, we enjoyed simply spending time together and catching up. My Dad has always taken Addie outside to play, whether we were in Georgia or Maryland! We don't have a backyard anymore, but we have the next best thing...a rooftop deck. Addie loved spending time with "Gandy" on the roof!

I had heard of a new kids club in our area, and we had to go try it out. They just opened last week, so they are still growing, but it was the cutest set-up I have ever seen! There is a theatre (not pictured), a Whole Foods grocery store, and a diner.

We no longer have a baby in the house, we have a little girl. She has become increasingly independent. For example, she is able to get her breakfast (yogurt and a spoon) by herself as well as dress herself.. I am so proud of her! :) She is also using her imagination a LOT more! She pretends that she is a mommy, a teacher, and a doctor...wonder where she gets that from :) She also creates her own stories, and let me tell you, they are VERY imaginative!

We jumped up, grabbed Addie, woke up Allison (who was staying with us for my Spring Break), and ran to the bathroom. I remember just sitting in the tub, holding my blanket-wrapped little girl, and just praying for our safety. I had never been through anything that sounded this bad! When the storm died down, Justin looked out the front windows and saw nothing but tree branches in between the flashes of lightening. Around 3:30, Justin ventured outside and met up with some of our neighbors that had gathered in the street. They too had noticed the damage and were trying to figure out what had happened. Upon closer inspection, we had so many oaks down around us that we, and our neighbors, were blocked in all sides. He started clearing our driveway with axe and chain saw, and by 6 am, the city had come with bulldozers to clear our road. As daylight hit, the destruction was amazing, not necessarily at our house, but with our neighbors. In fact, one of our neighbor's houses had been blown off its foundation and was held up only by the SUV under the carport! The Lord truly spared our house and we only had five to six oak trees down in the yard. They were blow down in the most perfect spot, and could have easily crushed our house while we slept. The only burden we had to bare besides getting our yard cleared up, was having to do without power for over 40 hours...a pain, but not nearly what it could have been without God's protection!</span> <span style="font-size:130%;"></span><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593758733873386882" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxVHawVogJh4O_JbB_Lus3y0kykDaXw9P6o0EW4gLIXMFI7Pk4LQ7zzGQTzSujGfGAunLwBScorlyMtAC3FDxzEbdGS8tr2Lqn0gPsUUm-bas_3a7nzXJkwzua2pCrB03ZRgsAcxm3zIKJ/s320/DSC00388.JPG" /> <img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593758727563168642" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiACxix7d9UlYptu0Ud8cLBJK8IetoP28RTsfZDNedjpje_v_FP_b_vn_eSoO_v2DuOW_x3znJGDT7hReSeIVQrc2G6sLsnqaguLHfnRLnlkc3tBO9cz1vwErnAJOuxwcZqkBTHJOVA3wyS/s320/P1030943.JPG" /> <br /><div></div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnxxcnZ4YzmjP0u7csYP89ZceiNrT6JDKPpEPdgPE16MscJyqbTbTib22nlEV7_5sCfSM9bOkSFi5By188_Y5Po2gftMa8k-NSpTphchorD6x8DLJKoAw5wQaqbo2iQQqzKJvVtxZnLoou/s1600/P1030944.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593758720568395746" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnxxcnZ4YzmjP0u7csYP89ZceiNrT6JDKPpEPdgPE16MscJyqbTbTib22nlEV7_5sCfSM9bOkSFi5By188_Y5Po2gftMa8k-NSpTphchorD6x8DLJKoAw5wQaqbo2iQQqzKJvVtxZnLoou/s320/P1030944.JPG" /></a> <br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguSVaGRkXQUt8vZx4l8LDeWf3G8TsDDXWCUI_su8a1bI9ljCADYsVJhDjZwS2-8fhSNqjOR0xqT0Nr2AI35oJ1C_alI9gb-AwVFaXJh68rktiVAUfwiWeXWRkngJv3bVjwxUE0j_2GCBf3/s1600/P1030951.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593758713281708866" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguSVaGRkXQUt8vZx4l8LDeWf3G8TsDDXWCUI_su8a1bI9ljCADYsVJhDjZwS2-8fhSNqjOR0xqT0Nr2AI35oJ1C_alI9gb-AwVFaXJh68rktiVAUfwiWeXWRkngJv3bVjwxUE0j_2GCBf3/s320/P1030951.JPG" /></a> </div><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;">The "After" picture!</span> </div><br /><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiL931okW4QKL4keebZZ57Iiz773EipNn0jWh1AgvxQfIwlh337-Uc1fNw8I_YiF4_n6FyvoyKsmETLARAuEO5gqYpbmWzMZevaGhqYdhFUqa_PZPGLsCJlHDruDu-_J38OYDKoRlQDnIN/s1600/2nd+Photo.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 239px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593758708285009730" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiL931okW4QKL4keebZZ57Iiz773EipNn0jWh1AgvxQfIwlh337-Uc1fNw8I_YiF4_n6FyvoyKsmETLARAuEO5gqYpbmWzMZevaGhqYdhFUqa_PZPGLsCJlHDruDu-_J38OYDKoRlQDnIN/s320/2nd+Photo.JPG" /></a> <span style="font-size:130%;">Several of our neighbors and men from our church came out on Friday and Saturday, and helped us clear the land!

I just love my sweetheart, and I am extremely proud of all that he has done in school. (We both know that we could not be here without the Lord's grace, mercy, and strength.)

We've already started packing up the non-essentials, and apparently Addie has gotten into the spirit of packing! On Saturday, I was in the kitchen cleaning up after breakfast and noticed that Addie was diligently and quietly playing in her room. I went to go check on her and noticed this..her "train" with all of her toys. She said she was moving to Hobby Lobby..haha.. and didn't want to leave any of her stuff. She's going to be a great helper with this move!</span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581163172717627826" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKBlNJh39G9R0TiE1S6qt2oCvbGbgr-FOoITPuByAiSBwDAzcz2qHxf_SxO0JK1HzjMBCsNt3dxpxN7NkI6RFk2B6whSQOwtCJGL5Y_9o-q92ifZcBl09k7qhhcaU7-td3P3H3ergtIqns/s320/DSC00354.JPG" /></span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"></span><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;">She did a very thorough job of packing up! </span></div><span style="font-size:130%;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581163176916233634" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMJjSlxeM2WY2QcvG7tK3lIyBBCTpPezfXb45854CCI9WtpqFhwGfGhM3iWoN9RBO0wXxbZKE0qXkKIDjNU9QG0Cdtt8MrYdFyR2gY0RBPm6faL_u70ngeT-LEp_HfZYJ2AhG4RWAwOSfc/s320/DSC00356.JPG" /></span>Libbyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05965010470197433534noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8218340620347924634.post-17140219770883761882011-02-27T21:37:00.004-05:002011-02-27T22:09:18.041-05:00Happy Birthday Rylin!<span style="font-size:130%;">On Saturday, Addie and I made the quick trip down to Valdosta for her friend, Rylin's 3rd Birthday. It was at a stable where the kids were able to ride horses. We had talked all week about seeing and riding the horses. When we arrived, she was ready to go. I was a bit afraid that she would approach them timidly, but she went up to the horse, gently petted him, and climbed up the saddle. She rode around once with just me holding her and then rode around several times with Rylin. It was a tremendously fun day, and we look forward to riding some more in the future! </span><br /><p align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;">Rylin (the birthday girl) and Addie<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5578567894065497266" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8b6atuhR2l2JVt7PJNLQnExV84JjZZdRKT0Yo8jx79tPdF0n49Oh7wqPuFZndH99FBjCMD4CqssXUIrYPOnERa2BZSuTKWck6Yti7_bMqfS6iGCFKNHtEKs74DvwjIocMlaYB_jSCKU-O/s320/DSC00341.JPG" /></span></p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5578566188883396066" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9S9pnw84RYfGZWXFdwnv_NREElxQM8Pwx2oszTnQEKU2zZvBL5ESv-TyrG-jDMCTIH7hRfSaZQ80p3yD5nzCjxkp_xkklg5t5s4bYwSrk5RZBd9-1P7kupf9UMFB_8S0W5zzudjFEEZX5/s320/DSC00343.JPG" /><br /><div align="center"><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">I have never ridden on a horse, so I was excited to try it out too!
