Yes yes - We are expecting!!! So sorry to not have updated this in forever. I've been very lazy!

But, here is a picture of our sweet little baby at 8 weeks (and now we are almost 14 weeks...)

What a miracle!!

The Lord is blessing us so much, and we cannot wait to find out more about our sweet little baby!

National Admin-Assistant Appreciation Day!!

So, I came to work today in a bad mood. I was fighting with my hair to do something, ANYTHING normal so I could leave the house. And, I'm sure I was short with Seth - And traffic was awful. So, Beau - my boss has me come into his office to discuss inventory. Then, he calls in Renee, my semi-boss, to discuss this and that. At the end of our conversation he asks me, "So, Amanda -do you have lunch plans today?" "No" - I responded cautiously... "Well, Good", he exclaims, "It's National Admin-Assistant Appreciation Day and we are taking you to lunch. Your choice!" Yay!!!!!! We went to Little Tokyo. I was very satisfied with the day and proud to have been remembered. And then, my boss came in with this awesome flower deal for me!! : ) I love flowers. And these are perfect for my desk....

And for all of you who have ever wondered what my office looks like.. here are some pictures of my desk area. Its pretty spacious.

Happy Admin Day to me!!! And you too if you are an Admin-Assistant!!

The Delta

This weekend our friend Chris and Hayden got married!! I love all weddings, but the ones that let me reunite with some of our really good life long friends make it even better! These are friends Seth has had since the beginning of college and we have stayed close, even though we only see each about twice a year! We are just so thankful for the friendship we have with this group and they are such an encouragement to us.   

This is a picture of the "wives" as of now! Miss you guys already!!

Nathan and Seth.... 

Nathan and Haley enjoying the coffee we finally got!!

Seth and me... by this super cool telephone booth

Us at the wedding.. We look super tired, probably because we stayed up till about 12:30 (which is way past my bedtime) and I was wide awake by 6 ...(Isn't Seth so handsome...!!)




The proud "4-Square Founder's Women"

There they are... the founders...

Happy Birthday Jeremy!

Seth and I had Jeremy and LeLe over for Jeremy's Birthday!

Isn't she precious!


This is the lovely cake we got from Kroger... Thanks nice Kroger Lady for doing such a good job with it!

Pink Eye

I have pink eye! Besides how awful these pictures are - just look at how sad my eye looks!




Terrible Pain!! Please pray for me!

Mexico!

Our journey in Mexico! This is an understatement - but the Lord, Our God is so good! Parras de la Fuente is such a beautiful place! There is still so much to unpack... maybe these picture will tell some of the story. We spent a couple of days ministering to a local Church there and helping clean out and paint their new Church! We got to visit the Mexico Outreach Center and see how the Lord is going to use that for His glory and for His name to be spread throughout Mexico!

Here is a picture of us in cold - waiting for the sun to rise over Parras.



Isn't this glorious? While we were praying someone said that they prayed that God's light would cover this city much like this sunrise is! True, and Amen!

That is Archie Stringer, who led the trip - as he is praying over the city during the sunrise.

So, while we were on our to the camping in the mountains, we stopped at the village and took some food to this little girls family... and her mother made these awesome headbands/wraps I am wearing! And this little girl about stole my heart... she is beautiful!

 
This is the same village, where I am passing out candy to childern who were so happy to see us!!! It was so fun - but so overwhelming to see all these little hands begging for candy!

And...I loved getting to serve with my husband!! love him!

So, we go camping in the moutains... which were an amazing display of God's creation - and this is where Seth slept... finally got to use that hammock we bought him!

Wow... Wow! I wish the pictures captured the incredible beauty of those mountains!!



My favorite part of camping was worshipping the Lord while Seth and Nathan led us ... Thanks guys, it was awesome.

Adventure Day!

Today - Seth and I went here for lunch today:

The King Edwards Hotel! It was super fun and an adventure.

The only  hard part was parking!! An absolute disaster downtown... but food was yummy and we had fun seeing the new hotel!

Go visit...
