"Thankful"

I hope everyone has had a blessed Thanksgiving! Caleb and I have had a wonderful couple of days with our family and we have loved it! I have so thankful for my wondeful husband who I have been married to for five wonderful months and who treats me like a princess each and everyday! I am thankful for my wonderful parents, brother, mother and father in love, brother and sister in love, and our sweet nephews,our grandparents,aunts,uncles, and we can't forget our sweet puppy Abby. I am also thankful for our wonderful home which is keeping us warm on these cold, dreary days. Our extended family that is absolutely wonderful to be around. A church family that is so loving, but most of all I am thankful for my realtionship with my loving and forgiving Lord and Savior! We are SO blessed!

I have had a wonderful week off! I have been able to clean my house, go shopping in Nashville, go to five Thanksgiving get togethers with family, shop on Black Friday, and just relax and I have loved every minute of it! I am so ready to start back to school so it is just a little closer to graduation! I have only 12 more school days left! It is unbelievable and I am SOOOOOO excited! Caleb will be graduating next weekend and we look forward to celebrating with his as well!







Hope everyone is having a wonderul weekend!
May you have a blessed Sunday!

"Thanksgiving Fun"

I hope everyone has had a wonderful week so far. Caleb and I have had a wonderful past couple of days. I am sooooo excited to be out of school this week and looking forward to Thanksgiving! I LOVE this time of year. On Friday night they had a Christmas tree lighting at a local place in town that has a big shopping center and we went with Caleb's parents to see them light the tree! It was beautiful and they even had fake snow! ha



We had a wonderful time and enjoyed getting to hang out with Caleb's parents!
On Saturday we had Thankgiving breakfast with my mom's side of the family and it was soooo yummy! It was a good home cooked breakfast and afterwards, all of the girls helped mema decorate her tree! Fun times! I love my family and I am so thankful for them!!


Caleb and I are SO excited about the holidays and starting our new family traditions!



Hope everyone is having a wonderful Sunday and pray you have a blessed week!

"D Now"

Hope everyone is having a wonderful week! I am so excited about being out of school next week and I cannot believe I only have 13 more days of school before I graduate! I am absolutely loving my internship, but I am VERY ready to have my on classroom and wonderful students. During my internship, God has definately confirmed this is what he has called me to do. There is nothing better than working with children and watching their faces light up when they "get it".

I also wanted to share a couple of pictures from our D Now weekend that I talked about in my last post.


A wonderful group of girls that I was able to spend my weekend with!


My wonderful friend Tiffany! I am so thankful for such a Godly friend like her! Tiffany has been a great encouragement in my life and her and her husband Will even helped Caleb and I on our house several times last summer! Great memories! I am blessed to be able to call her friend. I love ya girl!

As you can see from the few pictures, we had a wonderful weekend and I am so thankful for my church and our wonderful youth leaders!

We are having a family night tonight and watching the Alabama game! ROLL TIDE!!!
Hope everyone has a wonderful Friday!

Busy Weekend!

Hope everyone has had a wonderful Monday! Caleb and I are catching up on rest from our very busy weekend. This weekend at our church we had our Disciple Now with the youth. I was a host home with 10 precious girls staying at our home and then Caleb was at another host home with the high school guys. We had an amazing time talking about True Love Waits and on Sunday night the students made a comittment to our Lord and Savior, their parents, and their future spouse to remain pure until marriage! It was a wonderful sight to see and I so enjoyed talking with them over the weekend and being able to share how True Love is really worth waiting for.
I have lots of pictures to share and will be sharing them with you in the days ahead. I am counting down the days until Friday, which will begin my Fall/Thanksgiving Break for an entire week! I am loving teaching but definately am ready for a break!

MY TRUE LOVE WORTH WAITING FOR!!! I am SO blessed!

"The Most Wonderful Time of The Year"

I am SO excited about Christmas! Caleb and I are going to put our tree up Monday night and we have already been watching lots of Christmas movies! We cannot wait to decorate our new home for the holidays! I decided to change my blog for Christmas! It still needs some work but I am loving it already! Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend! Caleb and I have enjoyed just hanging around the house this weekend because next weekend we are involved with a Disciple Now at our church where we will host students at our home and do a study for Friday and Saturday. This year the study is on True Love Waits! Caleb will be staying at another home with some of the high school boys and I will be a host home staying at our house with some of the high school girls! Caleb and I are so excited to be apart of this and to share our story of how "True Love" really does wait!

I am loving the two shoe boxes that Caleb and I will be taking to church tomorrow for Operation Christmas Child. We went and bought our items today for a sweet little boy and a little girl and we pray they bless the sweet children that they will be given too. If you have never heard of OCC, it is wonderful and it is not much money to invest in the life of a child!

I am also loving the charm my parents got me today for my Pandora bracelet!








Don't forget that we fall back tonight! yay!
Hope everyone has a WONDERFUL Sunday!
Abundant Blessings, Kayla
