Two Years of marriage was officially yesterday. I woke up with this strange feeling. Like, WOAH has it really been two years?! As I was getting ready for work I decided to send Jeffrey a "Facebook" message. I know what has the world turned into?! But I shared the normal things that you do on an anniversary. I was a tiny bit surprised to check my facebook at work and have a message back from him. I started to cry at work! Jeffrey is a sweet guy don't get me wrong but he is not a VOCAL person by any means. So I cherished his words and they will forever be by my heart. I also took the time to look through our wedding pictures and discover how much we've changed. For the good, I think. :)
Just a thought with the way Love goes. We love, We lose, We love. Just like God. He loves, He loses us, He loves us again. Jeffrey and I made a promises to each other on our wedding day that we hold close to our hearts. I'm thankful for everyone that was with us on that day.. and I can only wish that some of my friends that I now know where there as well... which leads me to a prayer request I have...
Be praying for MY AMY as tomorrow she is having surgery. I can't type much about it because I get all teary. Stupid. Tears. Charlie. I'm going to write my prayer on here for you in case I don't get to talk to you.... Don't SKIP over it!
God-I want to lift Amy Walker up into your comforting spirit and since you are the master healer I pray that you are the Dr's and Nurses Hands and Eyes tomorrow. I know that you have a perfect plan for her. But you know my personal request for her life God. I want that more than anything and I just wanted to let you know that I am truly thankful for the way you placed us together at just the right time. You know what time I wouldn't have made it through with out her. And for that I am great-ful to you. Please soothe her nerves and please make it known that your hands and heart are at work. We love you and we praise your name. ALWAYS. <3
Amy,I know you hate when I do this.But I want you to know that you are in my heart more than you know. And your desires are my desires for you more than you can imagine. You are truly a best friend. I'm thankful for knowing what God has already done in your life and I'm hopeful for whats to come.I love you, Charlie. Truly I do.

Green Lights..
Well Today was the first official day of Jeffrey Henderson leading worship as the worship director at Tibbie Baptist. He did great of course. The band is great and I think they are starting to really get into the swing of things. After the service was over I think I put on a good 20 pounds with some Southern Cookin' and man oh man was it gooooood cookin'!!! The Youth are made up of some great core kids that I've meet the last 2 Sunday's they asked us to join them for bowling this afternoon and since we didn't have night church we decided to do that. Jeff of course won.. like always. But we enjoyed our time!! My thumb is killing me!! :(
We called it quits after laughing and after some girl chat about "Twilight". On the road home we stopped at a red light. Well we realized that our side wasn't turning green. In true fashion I wasn't paying attention bc Jeff was driving. Then it happened again. Jeff started creeping forward and I glanced up to Yell,
Me: "The light is STILL RED!"
Jeff: "I know this guy behind me is freaking out! Telling me to go"
Me: "Well don't listen to him"
Jeff: "Thank you, Jessica. Now the guy is banging his head on the steering wheel in frustration that I'm not going... this is funny"
Me: "Great"
*At this time we see a green arrow on our side... however we are not turning. The guy behind us swerves around us in a mad hurry and blows past us. The next car pulls up behind us and its the youth and Kristen and Brent (adults driving). They wave Jeff ahead. He carefully looks and decides to go while no cars are turning.
*Jeffs Phone Rings its Brent*
Jeff: "I don't know about here but in Georgia our lights turn green!"
hahaha I thought it was great but so true! I mean really people?!
Anyways we had a blast and now I'm ready to call it a day. I'm so stinkin' tired. Oh well.

Reading Reading Reading...
I need more books. Lately I've tried to lose my self in romance novels, thrillers.. you name it. I used to hate reading! I mean it. Like really hate it. I think even now I've only read around 10 novels. House, Captivating, In the Blink of an Eye, The Shack, Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse,Breaking Dawn, Germ, A ring and A promise.... Now I'm trying to decide whats next. Do I want to go the Harry Potter route? or Eragon? I can only read fiction novels.. I'm sure I need to read self help but.. I just love a good book that I can get lost in. I really do. My creative mind just TAKES off.
Just like a good movie that I'm captivated by! It really stinks not having money for movies and such.. but I will survive. Jeffrey and I are dying to see UP. We've heard great things about it and Hello! if you've seen the previews who doesn't want to see that bird!?!?!?
This wonderful Saturday morning has me re-reading a book while Jeffrey is sound asleep. He said something about cleaning today! GROSS! I'm really not looking forward to that. Oh well. What can I do? I'm trying to get a new website up and running so I can really start booking people in Mobile. I'm having a little bit of a hard time convincing Jeffrey that I need to spend the money. But there are a lot of things I need to spend the money on with my photography business and its just killing me! Computer, New Camera, New Lens... etc etc.
On another note.. Yesterday I booked a flight to Ft.Lauderdale for one of my life long best friend's wedding. Then we ran to David's Bridal and I ordered my bridesmaid dress.... its a beautiful halter plum dress that stops right around the knees for me. I'm already obsessing about my hair. Saving money is a huge deal right now and I'm trying to figure out.. Would long hair look better in a wedding OUTside in FL or short?!?!

Marco....
POLO! Well I'm about to head to work so this may or may not be a short post. Jeffrey got the job with the church! So we are praising God that we will be able to eat this month! I'm so proud of him but I'm also so excited for him to be in a church where he can use his talents to serve God!
Wednesdays have a small habit forming at 7 o clock my time. I get a phone call from someone at my parents house. Wipeout is ABC's great great great show! Its basically a chance to watch America's Funniest Home Videos in an ACTION PACKED obstacle course. I normally spend the hour waiting for a phone call so I know its back on and then we laugh over the phone together. I know it is kind of cheesey but I feel in a strange way like I'm home. But then again.. my family does have a sick humor. ;)
Tuesday... was just a work day. Nothing major to blog about really.
Monday... same I'm thinking. Except Jeffrey forced me to go to the grocery store with him. Not lovin' him for that. I've determined there is nothing I hate more than spending money at walmart. I'm just being honest folks. Hard earned money spent in 1 hour of stress navigating through tight spots, trying not to run into people, RUDE people... don't even get me started on the parking lot!! OH well. It has to be done. Maybe one day when.. I have oodles of money.. I'll pay someone to grocery shop for me??
Sunday was spent at the church Jeffrey now works at. We stayed after the service for a great lunch! Talk about good food.. mmmmmMMMMmmm. Nothing better than that Baptist Cookin'!
P.S. Dad its about time you started paying attention to my blog..... and here are some pictures.. because every post is better with pictures!!! My moms pretty flowers and our group picture before Jeffrey and I left on Memorial Day.

We live by the beach???
YES! We do! Let me say it one more time... WE LIVE BY THE BEACH! The greatness is waking up on Saturday mornings.. not having anything planned other than going to the beach! Jeffrey and I took our sweet time Saturday morning getting ready then we went to pick up Meredith and Colby. Had some Chickfila and then we hit the sand. Here is picture number one!!!!

I love it. I know I'm bragging a little but its just so exciting! We went to eat at Catfish Junction on Saturday night after helping Colby at the driving range. I wanted to take a picture but left my camera :(. I did eat these for the first time though. (picture by google)

Fried Pickles!!! I LOVED THEM. I know if you haven't ever tried them they can be scary. But give them a chance they were amazing!
Ok well I'm a twilight junky so I'm stoked to say I finally got Meredith to watch it. I can't wait for the MTV awards so I can see the preview thats supposed to be on there for the second movie NEW MOON! HIP HIP HOORAY!

Home again Home again
Jigity Jog...
Friday we took off as fast as we could to get home before dark. We failed. But it was a great drive and we made it in time to go to McDonalds with Kevin and Meagan. We were able to catch up and drive them home lol.
Saturday morning started off with a rainy photoshoot that turned out awesome! We had a blast and managed not to get drenched. Jeffrey and I then headed to watch good ole' baseball games!! Its official one day when I am hopefully a parent, I will be thrown out of a baseball game. I'm claiming it here. I've already made my piece with it and I know that my mouth (and competitiveness) will eventually get me booted. Oh well. I just get so strung up and start yelling and the next thing I know.. I'm being rude! Oh *GASP* what a shock I know I know! :)
Later that night Jeffrey dropped me off after my second photoshoot to eat dinner with my familia while he went to visit his pops. We had great food and of course laughter at Longhorns... We then packed into the car and headed home when I suddenly started to feel really funny around my mouth.. kind of tired but kind of numb. I was having a really hard time keeping my eyes open. Feeling like I could possibly drool at any given moment, I started to rack my brain for another reason for this feeling besides sleeplessness. *ah ha!* It was then that I remembered right before leaving my second shoot I took a benadryl. Well there you have it folks those kick in after a little bit of time. Luckily I wasn't driving and I made it to bed safely!!
Sunday Morning... BASEBALL. I know it would normally be church but since I was so limited on time with my family, I went with them to the fields to watch Garrett's game. After they loss :( Jeff and I headed to Ak's where we had a blast with all our buddies playing the animal game and catch phrase.... (both of which I hate to lose). Sunday wrapped up with us just sitting at the house and me working on pictures.
Last... Monday (today) I woke up and died my hair black! mmmmmm I love it! Then we headed to the movies! After that Mom and I took our sweet time at Belk's while Jeff loaded up the car for our trip home. I ended up putting two amazing dresses back.. they were NOT needs.. just major wants! The greatest part was when Mom and I decided to go through Taco Bell. Half way through the order my mom says, "and I'll get a dr.pepper with that" Taco Bell Lady, " MA'AM! That does NOT come with a drink" My Mom, "Well I'm terribly sorry, could I get a drink?" Ha. It would have been funnier if you were there...... trust me.
p.s. AMY, the next time I come home... drop everything for a moment with me! :) Also... pictures will be coming soon.
