Today is August 23rd, Happy Birthday Caleb! 

I was thankful that his birthday was on a Saturday because then I could be a part of his special day. We both slept in which was a super treat for me and it was nice for Caleb too because whenever I wake up for school it also wakes him up. 
We enjoyed a late breakfast together of french toast, bacon, eggs, pears, and juice. 
When Caleb was out on a birthday ride I cleaned up the house and called some friends to join us in the evening for a little party. 
Betty, one of the nurses for Mrs. Williams, wanted to make Caleb a cake. She used to make wedding cakes and sell cakes and she was happy to be able to make and decorate a cake again. She even walked it up the stairs to deliver it to Caleb as Beverly and I sang "happy birthday." I thank the Lord for the life he's given to Caleb and the blessing that he's been to me. 
I wanted to share with you a picture of the cake and my husband  :) p.s It was a yellow cake with cream cheese frosting layer in the middle and on top with chocolate on the side and drizzled on top. The decorations were red dots around the plate with blue tops, and the writing was in red. 

Fish-E's

After having settled down for a few weeks we decided that it would be nice to have some life around the house, besides our own. So we thought that some fish would be just perfect. However, when we looked up the prices of an aquarium (fish tank) the prices were outrageous! Unless you wanted to get a small tank like those that kids in the 1940's would have in their rooms. So we prayed about it and the very next day came our answer to prayer.

A girl living in sin.. I mean living with her boyfriend, placed an ad on "Craigslist" (an internet classifieds for those that don't know) saying that her boyfriend's parents don't want her fish tanks any more so they were getting rid of them. The prices on the 3 tanks we offered were really good. We bought just one the we were looking for and she gave it to us with fish and plants and rocks and a filter. All we had to get was the food and air pump. 

The girl was very sad to see her fish leave but was happy at the same time. (Something Michael Scott would have said). She was happy that the fish ended up with someone (me) who had previously been a fish owner. I've emailed some pictures of the fish and the tank to her and she was very pleased, saying that she was not as good an  "aqua-scaper." That ought to tell you something... jk.   

Here's the front view. I'm not going to lie it did take me some time. The next picture is taken from the side. 

I hope you liked it. It wasn't easy. I looked all over the web for these pictures. Here are some pictures from different angles. 



Coming Back.

Coming back home was probably the best part of our trip. It is not because we disliked all the places we've traveled too but simply because home is home. No more moving around but resting peacefully in our place of Zen. 


Then of course came the endless desert of wedding gifts to open and unpack. Thank the Lord that Macy's reshipped all our wedding gifts for free. Target on the other hand, we just won't speak of. Momma said, "if you don't have any thing nice to say, than don't say it." So since I don't have "anything" nice to say, we just won't say it. Although I will quote someone else, "Target is a communist center." 

We'll the Lord has been very gracious to us in all and everything! In the gifts we've received and the apartment we live in and everything. He has provided a job for Kelly even before she was looking for one and has given me many job opportunities that I've taken advantage of. He has helped us go through all the processes of the name changing, car titles, etc. 

Since we are in TN all our things needed to be changed over to TN. For example, car titles, licenses, t-shirts, front doors, etc. We had a dog at Covenant but that's because we were in GA. Now we have a cat. Needless to say, God as been good to us all this time and we are thankful.

Pe-Ru-Moon

For the second half of our honeymoon we went down to Peru. It was a very restful time once you get used to the dogs barking again. It was great to have all the wonderful Peruvian foods and see Peruvian friends that you don't see as often. Personally one of my favorites was having my lion dog with me again. But when your with a lion dog, it doesn't take much to know that he needs a bath. 



Even though lion doesn't like the baths he still loves me anyway.
It was very relaxing all together. So relaxing that I don't remember what else happened.
 Momma and Papa happy. While this picture was being taken
 this was happening on the other side of the house. Meeting with friends in the park.Benji, Kelly and little Nathaneil loving the pizza party.Caleb loving the after pizza party ride at 150mph with no helmets, gloves or anything and I mean nothing. We were going so fast I couldn't even see where I was going. I think at one point we hit something or somesone but we past sooo fast!!! that I didn't see what or who is was! Okay fine.. so we only went around the block. It was still fun. My wife is super cute here! more than I can say for about the other 3. jokes jokes.
If you can see my shoulder you'll notice Pe Pe taking off.Momma walking her boy around the house. Innocent bystander in dark red was attacked by the dog. Mom smiles.As is normal, Kaiser is in the way. Stupid dog.

The Ani-Moon

During our honeymoon in San Diego we saw a lot of animals. Thanks to the family's gift for us (N & A and M & L) we were able to visit some really cool places. Thanks again Nathaniel and Alicia for letting us use your house. 


We first went to visit the San Diego Zoo where we saw these:



And that's all I have to say for now.
