He is always on time..

God's timing is perfect. I am so gratful for all the trials I have went through in the last few weeks. It was a rough journey and I hit pretty low. I clung to God and prayed like crazy. Just when I was about to go through with something I knew he was calling me to do, something I really hated to have to do, he opened a door for us! Can you guess what?
Charlie got the job! We are moving to OKC on the 10th of Sept. I am so excited. I think it will be great for our family. I think it is just what we need to help us to continue to grow. It is going to be hard to leave our church family and friends. The kids are going to miss their granparents also. Luckily it will only be about 3 hours away so we will still be able to come back every once in a while.

This just goes to show that if you follow His will and praise Him in the storm, he does come through.

It is only a test....

Wow, it has been crazy around here the last week or so. Where to even start? At least things are getting a little back to normal around here.

Let see. Last Wednesday night my mom, sister, hubby and I got in an argument over the dogs. They wont keep them out and Charli and I are tired of poop and pee everywhere. We asked them nicely to put them out and leave them out. They refused so we told them they could do as we ask, find new living arangements on their own, or we would make them find other livign arrangemtns. It only got nastier from their until we weren't talkign to each other.
Around 5am Thursday morning my mom came through and was yelling and telling Charlie and I it was our fault and that my sister has tried to commit suicide. She then walked out the door. I got up and called around and no one knew anything yet. About 30 mins later I had Charlie call his mom and she said that everyting was ok and she then told him it was our fault also. Needless to say everyone was against us at that time.
I was so upset that I called my Pastor for guidance( Thank you Dave for waking up early to talk to me). We talked for around an hour and I felt better. My mother in law then called to say that my little sister was transfered to the phsyc ward at a hospital about an hour away.

During that time I did a lot of prayin, talking to the hubby, and talking to the church family. We decided for good that either they needed to get out or my family and I needed to get out. We really hated to be mean and kick my sister and mother out, but it was what was best for our family. Charlie then got some information on a job and we decided to try for that first and see how that would go.

So jump to Tues. and my sister got out of the hospital. During the time between Thur and Tues., my mom and I talked some. We are all getting along, but not really talking more than we have to. It is getting better, but I think there is still some anger between everyone.

Back to the job...Charlie had a phone interview yesterday and they immediatley emailed him for a face to face interview. That will take place Thursday the 26. Please pray thay he gets it. We hate to leave our church family here, but we all think it would be a great oppertunity for our fmaily. It will also give time for wounds to heal.

Well that is an update of what has been going on around here. It has been a wild ride, but I think it has helped me spirtually

August Already?

Boy has the time gone by fast. I can't believe it is already August. Christmas will be here before we know it and then my little guy will be 3 a few weeks later. It saddens me. I wish it would all just slow down.

I am so ready for something to break through. I am ready to be able to shower, do laundry, and cook in my own house. I am ready for healthy, made from scrap meals. I can't wait to have privacy and my own room. I called the Cherokee Nation Housing and they said they were out of money until Oct. The last time we talked to them it was June. It is always some excuse. Even if it is Oct, it will take a few weeks for them to get here and check it all out. Then a few more for them to tell us what they are going to do. So, we are looking at at least Nov. before they even decide. Then it will be snow season so I doubt anything will be done until after Feb.(I highly doubt they will build in the snow) After they begin it will be from 6 months to 2 years. Looking at that time frame, we wont have anything done until about this time next year. I dont think I can make it that long.

Charlie has put in a few applications at places. I am hoping someone takes a bite at him and that will allow us to move. This living here is putting a strain on our marriage and our children need to be able to play and get on a schedule.

Thats about all I have to update on. The kids are getting big. Eli is 2 1/2 and Amelia is almost 1 1/2.

Oh! Also, we may be going to see P.J. Pumphry some time in the neir future. If everything works out. I can't wait!

No New House

No new house for us. It hasn't been 3 yrs since out bankruptcy so they say we have to wait. Its only until Feb., but I don't know how much longer I can take living like this. We are going to call the Cherokee Nation tomorrow and see what is going on with the house. If they aren't going to get out here soon, we are just going to see if we can get the $5000 emergency money and get the water fixed. Then fix the rest up on our own. We will see how that goes.

My birthday is this weekend. I will be a big 23! We are going to have a little get together at a friends house. Next weekend we may be going to AR to visit another online friend. I can't wait to meet her. I hope things work out.

I'm not doing a good job...

I never know what to say. I try to update at least once a week, but nothing interesting comes to mind. Let's see what has happened since my last post.

4th of July is the only big thing I can think of really. On the 3rd we went to Joplin, MO's firework show. It was nice. The rain kind of bummed us out, but it stopped in time for the show and we enjoyed it. On the 4th we went to Freedom Fest in Tulsa. That was a lot of fun. The kids loved the inflatables they had up. Other than that, there hasn't been much going on.

We are looking into a house. I am hoping we can got talk to the people about it soon. Its a 3 bedroom 2 bath modular home. I can't wait to live on our own and our kids have their own room. It will be so nice to have some privacy.

Texas Trip

We are back from our TX trip. It was such a blast and nice to get a way for a while. We left on Thur. when Charlie got off work and arrived in Temple around 2 am. Friday we took the kids to the splash pad. They loved it. Saturday morning Eli woke up throwing up. We dont know what it was. He never acted sick. That evening we took the kids to see Toy Story 3. It was a cute movie. Sunday, Charlie got sick and was sick the whole day. We let the kids play outside and around the house that day. Monday morning Scarlett woke up sick and running a fever. Poor kids. We left around 2 pm on Monday and headed toward Dallas. On the way our A/C went out. Talk about hot. We made it to Dana's house around 6 pm, after difficulties and traffic. We had a blast there also. We cooked out a swam and Monica and Rylee came also. Even with the sicknesses it was fun. Can't wait to do it again.

P.S. I have my first wedding job booked for September. I am nervous and excited all at once!

Here are a few pics from the trip :

Summer Fun

Wow, this summer has already been keeping us busy. Between parties, showers, lake, church, Bible study and all the things in between, we aren't home much anymore. I love it!

We thought we might have had a break through on getting out of this house. Charlie got a call about an interview in Tulsa. The company is Christian based and they all seemed very friendly. They liked Charlie, but decided to give the job to someone else. They did say they may have an administrative job open soon. I guess we will just see where God leads us.

I had a talk to the pastor of our church about the whole wanting another baby thing. He made me realize that me be anxious for one is a sin and it will happen in God's timing not mine. I was beginning to not worry about it as much, but this helped. I really just wish everything would straighten out. With the being late all the time, bad cramps, and other things, it really makes me hope nothing is wrong.

I had my first paid photography job yesterday. It was for my friends daughters 2nd birthday. I had a blast and they turned out fairly well. I hope she likes them and they will bring me in some more business.

Thursday when Charlie gets off work we are leaving for Texas. I can't wait! We have tried to get together 3 times now and I think it is really going to happen this time.

Well, I think that is about it for now. I know the post is kind of all over the place, but hey!, that is just me.
