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.

Snow in January!

Okay, so it's been a couple of weeks since we last posted, and trust me, we've been busy. Not sure we can name all we've done, but I can tell you it includes installing base & corner moulding, painting various things such as window frames, the soffit in the kitchen, fixing the floor in the kitchen and installing base moulding there, repairing hole in kitchen ceiling where the old chimney was, installing toe kick under the cabinets, painting the laundry room, painting the rest of the sheetrock in the downstairs bathroom, installing outlet covers...I'll add more when we think of it.





Additionally, Scott and Steven have started rooting plants inside- they plan on growing GIANT pumpkins, watermelon, sunflowers and regular ol' carving pumpkins. They are enjoying the sunlight that comes in the windows in the afternoon.

AND, early this evening, it started SNOWING! Steven was so excited, it actually accumulated a little bit, too. We were hoping it would keep snowing instead of raining, but it looks/sounds like rain now. :( Good for the plants, though.

Aside from all that, Scott and Steven have been battling colds and Steven has an inner ear infection. Steven got the results from his science fair project- he received a 90 on his "Can You Build A Solar Car" project. :)

It's all good, we continue to thank God for all He's doing in our lives. He is in control!!!
