Easter 2015

-




Easter 2015 was fabulous.
On Saturday night, we did our traditional egg dyeing at Granny's house. We dye eggs to go in ours and our cousins' baskets every year loll. I love dyeing eggs. I love anything crafty so y'all already know.


















 
 
 
 
Easter Sunday called for lots of pictures.
 
Me, Mama, and Flash.
 
 
Sibling picture.
Jonathan might as well be a brother to us :)
Me and Michael were at the hospital the day he was born.
 
Me and JoJo.
 
 
Pic with the Easter Bunny!
(LOL sorry Cam)
 
 
Connor is clearly thrilled to be held by Ashley.
("I'M TIRED OF THE EASTER BUNNY AND PICTURES!!")
LOL
 
 
 
Speaking of Easter bunnies...
 
 
I realllly wish I could get emojis on here.
(insert laughing til crying emojis on all of these pictures!)
 
 
 
 
It took a few attempts to get a good pic with Emery and her ears and eggs and basket.
 
 
 
 
Sofiya saw us struggling and came to help.
 
 
 
 
 
Granny and Daddy
 
 
Oh yes I did.
(I got these earrings when I was little and didn't even have pierced ears and then I lost them once I had them pierced, so I never wore them. I found them the other day and decided I should take advantage of a fresh start with them.)

 
 
Ellie!
 
 
 
 
 
The birthday boy!
 
 
 
Emery's basket :)

 
Lunch and a one-year-old birthday party at Granny's, dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings with my family and Flash's, Starbucks, lots of pictures, and reflecting on the love of our Savior who died for us all and rose from the dead, and is preparing a place for us in Heaven. Sounds good to me!
 
 
 
 
 
Hoppy Easter!

Our Love Story

  Our Story This is how it goes... For several years, they would glance at each other across the sanctuary at Oak View Baptist on Sunday mornings. They knew each other, but they didn't really know each other. Beth went to High Point University, and Drew attended North Carolina State University. Years passed and sometimes they would say hey, but were usually too shy to say much else (yes, Beth Burroughs was shy around boys she thought were really cute). Even when they both accompanied the youth group on church camp trips, they didn't say much to each other. After college Drew moved back to High Point to start work and Beth moved to Boone to get her Master's at Appalachian State. The timing wasn't right yet....... When Beth was in her first year teaching at Southwest High School (2015), she sent Drew a Facebook message (ah, the era of social media) asking about apartments because she was looking to move out of her parents' house. She was also looking for the conversat

First #WeddingWednesday Post!

So I've been posting our story on our "The Knot" site. I've been posting in increments since I wanted to include the full story, but haven't had the time to sit down and type the whole thing! Also, I think people would rather read a little at a time... and it keeps everyone on the edge of their seat!! lol This was the first 'installment' I posted: For several years, they would glance at each other across the sanctuary at Oak View Baptist on Sunday mornings.

Things Unseen

2 Corinthians 4:17-18 (NIV) 17  For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.   18  So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen,  since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. Lately I've been getting weighed down with the issues of the world. Yesterday I read 2 Corinthians 4:8-18 in my daily reading book. In these verses, Paul talks about being pressed but not crushed, perplexed but not in despair, persecuted but not forsaken, and struck down but not destroyed... if you are a follower of Christ. The troubles of the world may weigh on us, but they will not overtake us. As we receive grace and sustenance for each day from God, we should become more thankful, which goes along with what I've been intentional about this week - writing a list of things I'm grateful for and thanking God for them. Focusing on these things will help us to see the world through His eyes. Verses
