Rummy -- I'm learning how to strategize. It's a growth process currently. I enjoy playing games A LOT (and friends who like to as well!)! I just recently found myself really excited about playing Phase 10 -- let me know if you're up for it! Loads of fun I tell you -- loads of fun! Big Fish Little Fish, Yatzee, Hit the Deck, SkipBo...there are so many -- come on over anytime for some games!
About me: I'm a simple girl with HUGE passions! I love people and have a desire to serve Jesus with all that I do.
+++++
Currently I teach 1st graders in Laramie, Wyoming full time and absolutely love my job!
+++++
Daily I am able to witness the faithfulness of Christ in my life through those surrounding me. I find myself very blessed to work alongside many friends and to share life deeply with wonderful people!
+++++
Marriage has always been a desire and I'm so glad to be experiencing it daily! To finally have met the man God has for me has been a HUGE blessing! Eric is my picture of grace. It is through sharing life with him that I'm able to see Christ reflected more radiantly and that I personally desire to know the Father deeper. I praise God for Eric and for the husband and father he will be as we begin our lives together.
+++++
Richly abundant -- that is who Christ is! What a blessing to share in His goodness! Eric and I are in the midst of an adoption process through Rwanda, Africa. It's been a long journey, but our hearts are full of anticipation as we await what the Lord has planned for the Fall. It is our hope that I travel to Rwanda in December to find this little girl. Ruhamah is loved beyond imagine already -- how I desire to hold in her in my arms!
+++++
I am blessed with a beautiful family -- So many have touched my heart in priceless ways. My grandmother was one of the most amazing women I've ever met!

Who I'd like to meet: Barbara Park (author of Junie B. Jones) and Jane O'Connor (author of Fancy Nancy) would be two of my top "meeting" interests! They both crack me up and I find such delight in reading their material! +++++ I'd love to chat with some New and Old Testament characters and hear personally about the strengths and struggles they encountered as they followed God in their day to day living.++++
Congrats! I heard your little one arrived. Its so much fun being a mom and love them lots cause they grow and change so much everyday! Everyday is a blessing and the changes are so fun! Congrats and really do get some sleep when you can. Easier said than done, I know. Bryce started sleeping through the night at 5 weeks old so that helps out lots not having to wake up in the middle of the night anymore. Again, congrats and enjoy your time at home with him because it will go fast.
HI!! Yes, I have talked to Christine. She is well. She's sore and tired, but okay. I think she gets discharged from the hospital on Thursday and then they're just going to stay down there for, you know, awhile. You're getting pretty close, right? I'm excited for you! How long do you have left? Mere weeks, right? YIPEE!!
So tell me do you know yet what you are having? Oh Yeah we are having #3 in March!!! It was an unexpected blessing and we could not be happier! Hope all is well!
Yes, very soon!!! Good to hear from you. I need to get up there and get settled and make some serious plans for the next school year. How are you looking these days?
I am so happy for you Steph!!!! Congratulations on your first baby!!!! I know this is something you have been waiting for your whole life...You are going to be an exceptional mother! Hang in there with the whole marriage thing. It is the hardest most trying job you will ever have but it is completely worth it! I love you and will be praying you have an easy pregnancy, delivery and post partum! All my love to you!
Hey Steph, Spencer belongs to our wonderful friends Greg and Nickee Searls! He is their second. He is finally home. Their first was born at 24 weeks at 1 lb 7 oz and now you would never be able to tell. Spencer is finally home and he is very close to 6 lbs. I have such a baby craving lately I love visiting them and holding him! Well DJ is a HAM!!!! I can't belive how "all BOY" he truly is! I never understood that until I had him. He loves to climb and explore EVERYTHING!!!!!!! SO how is married life? I can't believe I have never met your husband. He seems to be an awesome man. How is your adoption plans going? Well better get for now great to hear from ya love, Tam
Thank you for the congrats! We are super excited about being parents. At this time I am three months along. I have an ultrasound on Wednesday to double check the size of the baby for a more accurate due date. As of right now I am due September 21st, but my doctor thinks that I might actually be farther than that so I guess we will see on Wednesday. Things are going well so far, I have just had lots of morning, noon, and night sickness which is not fun but will be well worth it in the end. We are ready for the challenge. Lots of planning and things to buy! I have played mom to so many high school kids over these last few years; it will be nice to have one of our own
JNY stands for Jones New York its at the mens wearhouse if you go down there they know exactly what it is i had no idea when i was buying mines for my brothers wedding.
Just trying to keep our business going in the right direction. Hoping to hire employees soon, so I don't have to scrub floors as much if at all. We're also hoping to buy a house to remodel soon, after we finish the current remodel on our current house. Busy, Busy, Busy.
Steph, Did you see the new album on my myspace? I got a digital camera for Christmas and can take pictures now!! Isaiah is so big. He will be 6 at the end of this month. Check um out. I am so happy for you and your new married life!!! Love you, Anna
Stephanie!!! How is married life??? I have been thinking about you quite a bit. I am hoping sometime next year I can spend a week in Wyoming with Isaiah to show him where he was born and stay with Sherma. It would be amazing to see you! How are you??? Love always, Anna
Yeah marriage is definitely an adjustment. I have found that the stinky socks and underwear that never seem to make it into the laundry basket is the thorn in my side!!! Boys are just dirty . . . I'm so glad that I had a girl!!! I wish that we could get some snow like that on one condition . . . that I didn't have to leave the house!!!
Happy birthday Stephanie!!! I know this will be a wonderful year for you. I am soooo happy for you and all the blessings you are receiving right now! You deserve it.
Isaiah is in kindergarten, reading, writing, playing soccer.... he is a happy awesome five year old. I wish you could see him :)
We love you and will never forget all that you did for us!!
