... you know he LOVES to sing! All the time. Every day. Right now I am loving it because all he has been singing to me is a new song that just came out. It's sweet, had to share :)
Just The Way You Are
Oh, her eyes, her eyes, make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair, falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful, and I tell her every day
Yeah, I know, I know, when I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so, sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look ok, I say
When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change
Because you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while
Because girl you're amazing, just the way you are
Her lips, her lips, I could kiss them all day if she let me
Her laugh, her laugh, she hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful, and I tell her every day
Oh, you know, you know, you know, I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for then just stay the same
So, don't even bother asking if you look ok
You know I'll say
When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change
Because you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while
Because girl you're amazing, just the way you are
The way you are, the way you are
Girl you're amazing, just the way you are
When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change
Because you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while
Because girl you're amazing, just the way you are.
Pretty sweet, huh? I sure do love him!

Slumber party!!!
This past Friday was a BLAST!
After Deer Park beat La Porte (of course I had to get that in) at the football game, my Sunday school class came over to hang out and spend the night! We had a great time... played games, ate, laughed, laughed and laughed some more! Around 4:30am 3 girls piled each into our 3 beds and all on our couches and finally crashed. My age showed a little bit, but I stuck it out and we all had a wonderful time.
I love each of these girls so much (and the others that were out of town or unable to come). Not only are they absolutely beautiful on the outside, but they have the sweetest hearts. My prayer is that they will fall in love with Jesus more and more each day, to know Him more and make Him known. That's the ultimate goal. To be obedient to God's will, allow our life's to be use for God's glory, and be thankful he chooses to use us. I pray that I can be half a blessing to these girls, that they have already been to me!
Enjoy these funny pics... Oh and if you are wondering where the boys were (my husband, the youth director, and some of the youth boys), they were at the movies watching The Devil. You can tell which gender is going to have to be the spiritual leaders :) Just Kidding!

Change is everywhere...
First, Mili, that little toddler I fell in love with is growing up entirely too fast, she started Kindergarten today. And I LOVE my job, but I have finally found a negative part of it and it's that I will probably always miss my kid's first day of school because I am having to prepare my own classroom to welcome students. However, I am sure that didn't matter to Mili all that much, she was one excited little girl about starting school. I know that I am partial, but she REALLY is the smartest little five year old in the world. I am VERY proud of her, I am excited for her to get to go to school every day so she can bless others (teachers and kids), the way she blesses our family.
Furthermore, a lot of changes at church are taking place. Stephen and I have been praying for awhile that God would use us as a couple in the church. I have grown up in the church, lived and loved the youth department, so I am excited to get to serve in it. Stephen has been singing in the praise team and loves being involved with the church. He has the biggest heart for the Lord and for the youth, so I am excited to watch him teach in the youth as well. God is really doing some cool things in our life and I am thankful that He wants to use us. I am looking forward to next Sunday to begin teaching in the youth department, along with my husband and many other couples that have grown up in our church.
Finally, today was my first day back at school. It went GREAT! I am thankful to be at Deer Park, and thankful to be teaching seniors. Several of my students are ones that I have known for awhile, or I graduated with their older siblings. It's just sweet to come full circle with my church and now career- getting to attend at Deer Park and now be a teacher here. All five assistant principals have taught me in school at sometime. And people who are on my grade level team have all been teachers of mine- so it's very sweet and encouraging. God has blessed me so much!
As my day comes to an end, I am looking forward to all the new adventures/challenges that are in front of us. I am ready to work, and let the Lord lead so I can do my best through HIM. More and more I wouldn't trade my life for the world. At times I feel selfish for thinking such a thing, but it's my honest feeling-I couldn't think of a better life!
p.s. Next will be babies... and between the dreams everyone keeps having about us getting pregnant and my husband asking for one every time he sees a cute baby-That too might be sooner rather then later. But I will say that will HAVE to be the Lord :)

Sean's Haiti Trip
Recently, Central had a group go to Haiti on a mission trip. My brother, Sean, was able to go. I wanted to share some of the cool pictures he brought home... He said it was life changing, and now Stephen and I have started saving money to go next summer. I can hardly wait! Enjoy these pics... (I might add, I couldn't be more proud as a sister. Sean is a great young man who is willing to be used by the Lord and uses his gifts to serve the Lord.)

Fun Fourth of July!!
We had a wonderful holiday weekend! Sunday, the 4th of July, we had a wonderful service at church. Our pastor brought a great, convicting message... it was a great time with the Lord. Afterwards, we went to Richmond to meet Stephen's brother, Dwight, and his family. They threw a wonderful cook out and we had a great time with family. Finally, when we got home, it was JUST in time for the fireworks. Friends met us at our house and we climbed on top of the roof (I was much more scared than Mili) and had front row seats to the Deer Park firework show- might I add, it was the best one in years! And it felt like the fireworks were right in our face... completely AMAZING!
