Get Informed! --Mike Huckabee

Hey everyone! Sorry it has been a while since the post but you understand with Christmas and everything. I am sure Rachael will be posting some Christmas pictures soon and I am working on some videos.

I wanted to encourage all of you to begin following the campaign for a new president. Our nation is struggling and all the righteous have to do to allow evil to reign in our nation is nothing. We must be informed and take action! We need every believer in America to vote in the upcoming elections!


One candidate that I have been thoroughly impressed with is Mike Huckabee. He is an ordained minister of the gospel and the odds have been against him all the way. I can see God's working through him. I want to encourage you to research Governor Huckabee and keep him in your prayers. You can learn more by going to meet the candidates at You Tube or by visiting his website: http://www.mikehuckabee.com/. His information and blog is on this site.


If you wish to support his campaign please visit https://www.mikehuckabee.com/?FuseAction=Contribute.Home&r=3164. We have a goal to raise at least $100 for Mike’s campaign.

Remember to pray for our nation and its leaders!

2 Chronicles 7:14"If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land."

Laughing Out Loud

Elizabeth doesn't laugh much. In fact, this time was only the third time we have every heard her laugh! Luckly we had the video camera handy so we could share it with you :)

Elizabeth Learning to Crawl

Watch this exciting video premiering a few of Elizabeth's first forward motions. (Some of this might be over dramatized :) - what can I say, I am a video guy!)

It's not to late to vote to see who Elizabeth looks like! Scroll down to view the pics then vote on the right hand navigation bar!

You Decide

Okay it's time to let you be the one who decides. Does Elizabeth look more like her mommy or daddy? Use the pole on the righ nav bar to place your vote - "Daddy" "Mommy" or "Can't Decide".

New Computer (continued...)

So we figured out the new computer situation and I got it all set up. It is pretty awesome! We can watch HD TV through our PC, play music, picture slide shows, and home videos. And if that is not enough I can use my 360 as a media extender and view all of the above media on our TV! Pretty cool.

Things have been going well at our home. The Thanksgiving holiday was very enjoyable. We spent it with family and friends... how can it be better than that?

We are excited about Christmas! This will be Elizabeth's first one and New Year's Eve marks our second wedding anniversary! I am sure we will have many posts to come throughout the rest of this year! Wow, the end is already almost here!

Happy Holidays,
-Brandon

Elizabeth's Red Letter Day

Last Friday, November 9th, Elizabeth experienced a few firsts for her life. She got to eat food for the first time. (Other than rice cereal and formula.)She had carrots and like everything else she eats, she loved it and was just happy to have food entering her mouth. :)
Her other first was her very first tooth! Yippee! Mostly I am grateful that she was able to have a tooth poke through without me even knowing it. She hasn't been extra fussy or anything. Praise the Lord! Last Wednesday my mother discovered her other front tooth had poked through too! They are the front bottom teeth and are coming in very nicely.Aren't they cute?
Hope you have a blessed week! -Rachael

Don't forget... be grateful for the everyday things!

I am so so so so SO excited about my new toy! Brandon and his parents got me a dishwasher for my birthday! My wonderful dad installed it for me and it runs like a beauty! I actually get excited about doing the dishes and I gladly offer company a "real" glass without hesitation! Thank you to all of those who made this happen for me!!! I am very grateful!

New Computer

Today we bought a brand new computer! It is an AMD Athlon Dual Core Processor, 500GB HDD, 3GB of Ram, TV Tuner and more! We really like it.



When I went to pick up the computer today I didn't realize what I was in for:

1. Some of my most important applications would not work or it was questionable if they would work when I upgraded from XP to Vista.


2. After spending hours of checking into things and studying I bought the PC only to discover that this machine was not supposed to be sold. It was a display computer that had features disabled, activiations expired and 50GB instead of 500GB of space. Of course I had already set it up and unpacked it all before I realized.


3. When I took it back to Best Buy it took forever. However, they helped me out by giving me a good discount on a 22in flat panel monitor! We are very excited about that!


4. I spent extra money on a tv antienia because we live just south of mount trashmore.


5. I am still not done setting up and it is after 8:00pm!

Nevertheless we are still excited. Pray that setup goes better!
