It's a...

What a way to spend Amanda's 30th birthday! At 8 am this morning we made our way to the doctors office to finally have a ultrasound and determine if we needed to focus on pink things and bows or blue things and tonka trucks. Well, the results are in and it is (drum roll please...No seriously, make a drum roll sound before you read this) A GIRL!!! We are very excited indeed, and appreciate everyones prayers. Please continue to pray for Amanda and the baby, we will try to get a picture of the ultrasound up very soon...Check back frequently!

Still Waiting...

Amanda went to the doctor today with the anticipation that we would find out if it is a boy or girl...Unfortunetly the technition that was supposed to do the ultrasound called in sick today, so we were unable to find out. Everything is going good with the baby, please continue to pray for him/her and Amanda. Tomorrow we start our trip back to Raleigh with a stop in Kentucky.

Busy fall & big news!

Our biggest stretch of conferences is slowly coming to a close as we are looking forward to getting home for the first time since July 9th. The last several weeks have went by very fast as we have had conferences in SC, MO, FL, VA, MI, IL, OH, and will finish in IA before going through Kentucky on the way home. It was really a great time and we have met several new friends throughout these churches. We were also able to be in several conference with Eric & Amanda which is always nice when we can spend time with them and the kids. Our final conference of October was with Eric & Amanda at Meadowview Baptist Church where we served on staff with the Shadles' when we lived in Springfield.
As most of you know, we are expecting our first child in April. We are very excited about this, and would appreciate your prayers during the pregnancy. We will keep this blog updated weekly as we continue to travel and also prepare for the new bundle of joy! Next week Amanda goes to the doctor to find out if it is a boy or girl.

On the Road...

It's been a while since our last post...life on the road is crazy! We have been from Virginia to Illinois to Georgia to North Carolina to Kentucky to South Carolina!

We've been in negative degree weather one week and then on to beautiful sunny skies the next! The deputation trail is anything but boring! We are having a blast and are so amazed at God's goodness. We have had the privilege of meeting such wonderful people and have been able to form some life-long friendships!
