Weekend to Remember - An Experience You'll Never Forget

Give your marriage a tune up!

Let us tell you all about Weekend to Remember! We've been twice- the first time was in 2005, two months after we divorced on our 14th wedding anniversary... God placed that conference in our path to give us the tools to tear down the walls of isolation we'd unknowingly built in our marriage. He used that conference to restore our relationship, our marriage and our lives.

We made a commitment to go to the conference every year or so and attended again in 2007. God's Word is alive, and we came away learning so much more about how God designed marriage, how He created us for each other and how He uses what we perceive as weaknesses to strengthen each other and grow in Him.

The Weekend to Remember is a great multipurpose tool- it is a how to be married guide for engaged and newly married couples, a restoration tool for broken marriages, a maintenance tool for great marriages and a springboard to the next level for good marriages. The presenters are so human, so easy to relate to, so easy to listen to and learn from.

After we attended the conference last fall, God pressed on our hearts to volunteer for FamilyLife, so we are working at the Raleigh weekend this year. Scott is a group coach and I'm on the prayer team. We'll be there at the conference, serving in whatever way God needs us to serve.

Exterior, April 2007


So, this is the house back last May 2006 before we bought it.








And this is the house, now! The Potters have been busy- they've scraped and painted the roof, and over the last several weeks have been scraping, caulking, repairing/replacing clapboard, priming and painting. They've just got the final coat of paint to go. On Monday, they start with the repairs to the porch roof! Yippee!! I don't know how much the photo really does it justice, but the house looks great, it is amazing what a coat of paint will do!

Otherwise, we continue to learn so much- like the fact that everything takes a lot longer than you think it will. And that sometimes you pour a lot of time into a project that you cannot see in photographs. Take the guest room ceiling for example. I spent almost two weeks (granted, that was before and after work) caulking every seam in the beadboard ceiling, sanding the woodwork, caulking, etc. In fact, caulking was great prayer time- I was thanking God for so much with each bead of caulk I ran and smoothed. *sigh* Today, I put a coat of primer on everything- it looks great to me, but the photos just don't show all the time and effort. Next week I'll be painting, so we'll photograph it then. :)

Also, the granite counter top is in, we haven't photographed it yet because there are other things stored in the kitchen right now. Monday and Tuesday we're working on the house, we'll clean up the kitchen and take photos to post then!!

We're moving steadily along... we're getting married again on May 5 on that porch...regardless of the progress of the house. Hopefully we'll be able to have our pig pickin' there...if not, we'll have it nearby. God is so good, all the time!!!
