Catch Up!

So, I'm new to this whole blog thing. I think it may be a good thing to do this so that people who want to can keep up with the going on's in my life and the thoughts going through my head. I will give you fair warning you may not always want to know these things as they can sometimes be very confusing to even me!

Me and mine...

Ken and I got married on October 24, 2009. At this time, I gained a new mom (Arlene) and dad (Lee), sister (Amanda) and brother in law (Ben), and niece (Aiyana) and nephew (Dakota). Ken on the other hand gained a much larger family haha. Mom, dad, Jennifer, Travis, Keaton, Tyler, Hunter, Chris, Becky, Analia (on the way), and Michael!

Ken is still going to school, he is working on his Masters of Business degree and should be done with that by the end of this year. I am going back to school this summer after getting a loan to help pay for it, though it would have been a lot better to have a grant pay for it!

We are both very involved with the Florida Tribe of Cherokee Indians (check us out at www.floridacherokee.com). In the tribe we teach and learn things about the Cherokee such as language, crafts, arts, etc. Ken is the chief (Uku) and does wonders working with people to do the best for everyone. Just recently we spent some time with a soroity in Pensacola to teach them about the Cherokee arts and crafts. We will be spending some time soon with kids from 4H teaching them how to make corn husk dolls soon. We plan on being part of the Blackwater Arts & Crafts and Milton Scratch Ankle.

We attend church at Milton First Assembly of God. This year I have decided to turn back to my Jesus 100%, I have always toyed with it, choicing Him when it was most convenient, and have recently realized that it was crazy and only hurting myself and my loved ones to be that way. My Jesus DIED for me! How wonderful is it that He would do something like that for someone as lowly and undeserving as me! I struggled for a little while with fear... I was so scared that now that I got my life in line and ready to live for Him that my life would end, and I didn't want to die, I had wasted too much time already. But I have learned to give my worries to God in prayers. One of my scriptures to live by is "For God did not give me a spirit of fear, but of power, and love, and a sound mind".

I think that about catches us up for now! Will post again soon! Maybe pictures from Ken's upcoming birthday dinner!!
