congrats to Lea
Most of you know we are moving to Nashville.
Some of you know we were there this week - we went out on Monday & Tuesday for a house inspection on the home we are buying, and for Lea to go to some meetings/interviews at Vanderbilt Medical Center.
Well, the inspection went well, but that's not what this blog is about, so moving on... Lea's meetings went great - ALL THREE of them offered her a job, and I think a couple of them were trying to get her to sign on the dotted line right then. Obviously they could all tell what a huge boost it would be to have her on the floor!
She officially accepted one today - it's an OB/GYN position, working with post-partum and ante-partum (did I spell those right babe?). Basically she gets to work with moms and babies, which is what she has wanted to do for a long time. (Sidenote - she worked some in the nursery at our old church and is so good with babies, so this will be a great job for her!)
Anyway, I'm so proud of you Lea - but not surprised! Vanderbilt Nursing is lucky to have you!!
J is so funny!
My husband is the best! He cracks me up...he is always telling jokes, and when he starts cracking jokes, I just cannot stop laughing!
For example, James and I went to Tennessee this week to be there for our house inspection and for me to go to some interviews at Vanderbilt Medical Center. We were staying with some family friends in Franklin on Monday night. They were so kind to take us out to dinner at Bucca di Beppo!!
After the waitress brought us our waters with lemons in them, Pam (the mom) started telling us about how she saw this special on Dateline or something like that, of how lemon rines have lots of bacteria and "you never know what they do with the lemons before they put them in your water..." And of course, me being a nurse, I was very intrigued. I was actually debating whether or not to say adios to my lemon water days.
So while we were discussing the lemon theory, Kelsey (the daughter) said, "I just like to be blissfully naive," and started chewing on her lemon. Her boyfriend, Bradley, said, "But we are no longer naive!" And under his breath, James said, "...and no longer blissful." We just started cracking up! Especially Kelsey, who I think thought James was pretty funny!!
It might be one of those, "you just had to be there.." but it was quite hilarious!!

Reba and Justin Duet
WOW, okay I just saw this on Oprah today.
I love this song, it is beautiful. With the sad court decision in California today re: marriage, and a discouraging article I saw today in Christianity Today, I became somewhat disheartened with some of the worldly things I am surrounded with. It saddens me to think about those people that don't know God, and who are searching.
This song reminded me of God's love for His children...His love remains! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0XH-iDpgAk
I think lots of my family members will like this song....go Reba right!??
Love you all, Lea
Pastor Paul
One of the most truth-telling Christian leaders/pastors I know is Pastor Paul Brushaber. My roomates and I attended his church when we were studying nursing at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. If you are looking for some challenging scripture-based sermons, you should check out his church website. There are podcasts and sermons you can download.

Bye y'all!

I love walking
If you know me very well, you know that I LOVE TO GO WALKING!! Whether it is alone or with a friend, whether it is in the morning, afternoon, or at night....I LOVE TO WALK! It is very refreshing and rejuvenating for me to walk. On my walks I enjoy listening to sermons or music on my ipod, praying and talking to God, or just processing my thoughts.
I found this cool article about walking today...check it out if you get a chance, it's cute:

By the way, happy anniversary James! I love you sweetie, and I look forward to many more days, weeks, and years with you by my side!
Lea
happy day!
As of today at around 3pm, Lea and I will have been married for 19 months. For those of you scoring at home, that works out to 578 days that I have been the luckiest guy!
Lea made the most amazing dinner last night - within one bite I knew it was one of my favorites - and that is saying a lot cause I like everything she cooks. I was sitting in a meeting yesterday afternoon and I was thinking about dinner, cause I knew it was going to be really good.
I brought leftovers for work today - and right on cue, my stomach just growled. :-)
Happy anni sweetie pie.
