Too long, too short

Well, as the title says, it has been too long since I wrote, and this blog will be way too short to catch you up on the Weaver's. But, I will attempt to throw it all in here. So, the house has still not sold yet, boo hoo. We have tried craigslist and we have also put fliers with the sign in the yard. I am really upset, because the investor realtor who showed so much interest NEVER called me back!! I already have a hard time trusting certain business people, and then I go and let my guard down just to be kicked again. UGH! Oh well, the Lord knows what he is doing, and we will move if and when he is ready for us to.

Will continues to change on a daily basis, and he is learning so many new words. He says "shoes", and "see?", he tries to sing E-I-E-I-O with old McDonald! So cute! He has many more little words and funny things, but I can't list them all.

We went to the aquarium in Chattanooga at the beginning of August. It was fun, but I have to say I wasn't that impressed. I actually think I enjoyed the one in Gatlinburg better. We did have a great time though, Renee and Lance went with us, and of course Will loved seeing the fish and all the other animals. We went to Ruby Falls on the 2nd day, it was a BAD idea with a 17 month old!!! Especially one that is need of a nap! He was a big whiny tail the whole time, and there were NO STROLLERS allowed, so guess who had to carry him the whole way? I carried him all the way to the Falls, which they told us was 1/2 mile. WOW. Chris carried him most of the way back, thank goodness! The falls were pretty, but not worth the headache and carrying my kid to get there. So, word to the wise..... save Ruby Falls for the older Kiddies!!

I am starting a Beth Moore "Believing God" Bible study tomorrow night. I am so excited!!! I have done her Beloved Disciple study and it was awesome, so I am really looking forward to this one, and I know it will be just what I need!! Chris has also joined the men's Wed night group at church, which is great! I am so happy we are both getting involved in small groups at church. We love New Vision, but have felt a bit disconnected lately. Satan was really workin on us, and we were close to changing churches, and laid out completely for some time. But now, it is clear to us that NV is where we need to be, we just need to get connected!!

Please keep us in your prayers as we start these groups, and hopefully form some bonds and accountability partners. I guess that is all for now. I am sure that I am leaving something out, but I will be back! Thanks for reading!

Hi girlie, I am glad that you updated your blog! I miss talking to you and love reading about you and your cu-tie little family!

Not that I do not wish for you to not find a connection with NV, but if for some reason you don't I would love to invite you to Calvary....we have the best connect groups on Wednesday nights and the most phenomenal children's department, EVER!! Trust me, it's hard not to find a connection here!

Oh well, just wanted to tell you I miss you and I hope that all is well!! Update more often! :o)

BTW, we carried a small child once through Ruby Falls, I so feel your pain!

Very cool - God is SO good. Isn't it amazing how great it is to be surrounded by godly people who encourage us in our walks? That's how Wes and I feel about our church (WOC), I can't get enough - love the people, the nursery, other staff, praise and worship, our small group, and of course our pastor. I'm so happy to hear y'all found a place you feel called to and got plugged in. Do you guys happen to know Glen and Cara Kopchack? They're good friends of ours and they're pretty involved at New Vision, too.

I know Glen! Not from church though, I used to work with him at Walmart, WAY back when!! He is a super sweet guy! I didn't know you guys went to WOC. I don't know why I thought you went to BellAire??
