So in love I can't handle it! Meet Oliver!

so josh has been begging for a dog for about a month. I just didn't want to have any of the responsibility. I didn't want to take it on walks, feed it, wash it, clean up the poop and pee.
But we went to a few shelters and the flea market and easily my mind was changed and wanted to give one of these pups a home. Ive never owed an animal before, where I am solely the care taker, so I was very nervous. He cried the first night and broke my heart. Slowly he is getting better with the create. I Love taking him out. playing with him, feeding him. washing him. and he is the best cuddlier ever!
I am SOOOO sad because tomorrow is the first day he will be alone for more than 3 hours! Anyway......he is the best!

WE GOT THE HOUSE!

In 4 weeks we will be taking over this cute house and making it ours! Oh the butterfly's!!! :)

no one told me how much of a headache buying a house is.
Hopefully, this being our 3rd offer on a house, we won't get out bided!!

ARGG!

It's not Ok with me!

I just got done reading It's not Ok with me. By Janine Maxwell. She lives in Alpharetta, GA. Probably 10 min from my work!!! I really hope to go to Africa and do service work and talk with the orphans and give them my love. This book broke my Heart. I am so richly blessed, I have no idea.

30,000 children die in Sub-Saharan from hunger/malnutition EACH DAY.
Which means 2.9 children every year.
15 million are left as orphans by AIDS.

Janine is part of an orginization that started here too! Called Heart For Africa. I'm dying to go. I'm sure once I go, my heart will be ripped out and buried in the lands of Africa, along with Janines.
