Moving Adventure!!







Well, we left Knoxville, TN (our home for the last 4 1/2 years) on June 9th and headed for West Virginia. We arrived about 8 pm totally exhausted - but thankful that we made it safely. We unloaded all of our stuff into my parents garage and we will be staying with them and Matthew's parents until our house sells and we can purchase one here. Matthew is going to work next to my dad in our home church, Kegley Baptist Church, and soon we plan on starting an Independent Baptist church in Bland, VA. We are going to have some fun times over the next few months - please just remember us in your prayers. Enjoy the pictures of our trip home: Virginia sign, Bland County exit sign (area we want to start a church), UHaul going into WV, Kegley sign, church sign, and last a picture of the church where we will be serving.

We loaded the UHaul on Monday, June 09 and headed out to WV. We will be staying between Matthew's parents and my parents for the next several months - pray that God gives us grace and a quick sale on our house in Knoxville.

Matthew and Johnathon camped out in the back yard last night. It was a good father/son activity. Here are some pictures I snapped - they seemed to have a good time.

Day at the Park!!






Today we spent the morning at the park - the kids had a wonderful time. We met up with some friends and had a Bible story, craft time, good food, and lots of play time. It was so hot - 95 so the water was very refreshing. Enjoy the pictures!!

Kid's Special Day!!



On May 30, 2008, we took the kids on a very special outing. We didn't tell them where we were going - we just got in the car and took off. The first stop was Firehouse Subs in Fountain City to meet up Poppy and Grandma Setser who were on their way from Florida to Nashville. We then headed to Gatlinburg to the Ripley's Aquarium - WOW! all those fish are really neat. We then walked the streets of Gatlinburg for a while and made out next stop at Bubba Gump's Shrimp - the kid's thought it was really neat that their food was served in a boat basket. Well, the night didn't stop there - we headed back to Knoxville making a stop at the NASCAR park to go putt putt golf - we took advantage of a coupon for the entire family to golf for free. The kids were so excited - they had never putt putt. Matthew and I had so much fun watching them - Lacie would through her club down and clap each time she got the ball in the cup. Here are pictures of us at the Aquarium - didn't get any putt putt because we didn't want to keep up with the camera. Hope you enjoy!!

House for Sale!!


We are selling our house in TN to make a move to VA. We plan on heading to VA on June 9th - it is coming so very quickly. Here is the flyer for our house - we have it list with The Real Estate Market Inc.
