When can I see you again

Gosh! I'm really missing Nathan. Thank the Lord for my mom. She is coming into town as I'm writing this to be with me until Monday. I'm so thankful for her. I'm really looking forward to hanging out and having girl time with her. Movies, pedicures, Lots of food! I'll get back with more pictures from last weekend. I got to visit MS and see my precious nephews finally. They are SO cute. Rob has to be the smartest, best behaved, most beautiful, and kindest 7 year old that has ever lived. And there is not a shread of partiality in that statement. Rob spent the night with us on Friday and I read him the story of Samson. Definitely forgot how brutal that story is. I kept having to fill in words...like Samson married a prostitute (a lady), they gauged out Samson's eyes (they were very mean to Samson). Luckily I got him a children's Biblestory book that sensors a bit. Reese is just the most precous butter ball. There is just something about a baby smiling at you that makes the world disappear for a minute. It's such a gift.

Uganda





Nathan is in Uganda right now with EMI (Engineering Ministries International) doing site design work for a new school in Masaka. The Christian facility will be called the Timothy Center and will offer the following programs: Senior Girl's High School (A-Levels - S5&6), Teacher Training, Christian school resource centre, Leadership Training, Enterpreneurship development, Sustainable farming, Guest House, and Strategic partnerships. Nathan will be mostly involved in the sustainable farming side as he will design the fish ponds and some other water/wastewater projects. I'm missing him SO much, but I'm also so excited for him. Nathan loves travel and being a part of new cultures. Praise the Lord he is an adventurous man and really thrives in that type of atmosphere. I'm looking forward to posting again about his trip and sharing pictures. I pray God will bring him home safely. I'm longing to hug him. :) The first picture is a precious Ugandan girl and the second is the site where they will be building the school after Nathan's team finishes the design.

Wednesday Wish List

I've got to do better on blogging. I can't seem to get my pictures and time to blog together at the same time. We had Nathan's family up for the weekend to celebrate Nathan and Kendall's birthdays. His generous parents took us to a very nice dinner and treated us to putt-putt golf. Very fun. I'll try to post pics later. Ok. Now to the wish list.

1. TO GO TO BOONEVILLE!! I'm desperately suffering from homesickness. I want to be with my family and see my nephews so badly! Plus my Meme is at my house right now and I haven't seen Stephanie since she returned from Vanderbilt. Guess God is teaching me to wait and that longing for things is really good for me just as I am longing to see His Face!



2. A Stand Mixer. I've put a picture of a Kitchen Aid because they are most popular but I'd be happy with any stand mixer.



3. This really great lamp from Anthropology...sadly out of the budget, but that's my this is a "wish list" right?

Happy Wednesday!
