Yay for our first post! I have been wanting one of these, to spill all my guts out to the rest of the world, for a long time now! haha But in all seriousness... My name is Lauren and I will probably be doing most if not all of the blogs. I am happily married to my best friend, Jerry. We were married on November 22nd, 2008, so our one year anniversary is just around the corner. We began dating December 26th, 2003, and were engaged February 11th, 2006. It's been a rollercoaster ride full of sad and happy emotions through the years, but I am extremely happy to say he is my husband, and wouldn't have it any other way! He is my best friend and the one I confide in... I don't know what I would do if I couldn't talk to him. He knows me inside and out, as I do him, but of course we both have a lot of learning to do!
We are firm believers in CHRIST! He is the center of our marraige and the Head of our home! We would not be who we are today without his hand guiding and leading us! We are faithful members at Daystar FWC Church of God. We stay very active at our church, and love it! I also sing on the Praise Team, and am the Youth Drama Team leader. I love working for the Lord. Jerry, DOES NOT sing on the Praise Team, haha because well... "he can't carry a tune in a bucket". But I still love him!
Shasta, our first child is a "grey" pitbull. We got her a few weeks after we started dating, so she has been there through it all.. and she swears she is a human! We "rescued" two kittens last July at our friends house. It seemed as though someone had dropped them off, so we took them home with us.. and their names are Nala and Kilala. They are so spoiled that if we ever had to get rid of them... they probably wouldn't survive without our love. We have been getting many queries as to when we will be with-child.. haha, and all I have to say about that is.. Man, cant we be married for a little while?! I love kids and anyone who knows me or even sees me in public would know that. (I get that from my wonderful mother) I am constantly toting someone elses kids with me, because that's what I love to do. But to answer the question... in reality we would like to have a home of our own and be settled in before trying, but as I have said plenty of times before "whenever God wants to bless us with children.. I will take them!". People have told spoke twins over us.. and it's hilarious to see Jerry swirm about that. I have had this "aching womb look" for quite a awhile now, but have put my feelings and wants to the side because I only want the best for my children, and having a child in a 2 bedroom apartment that we are already busting at the seams in, would not be suffice. So... stay tuned and maybe you will see a baby ticker in the future!!
I could probably write about our lives all day long, but then I would not have anything to talk about the next time! So in closing.. I hope you enjoy reading our blog and learning more about us.. or just stalking us! lol
Hope everyone has a greet weekend and God Bless!
