My mom bough Liza a cat costume for Halloween and some of the college kids/ post college kids had a Halloween party.  Now normally I would just go as myself (last year I was a pregnant lady) but since Liza had a costume, I thought it would be fun to dress up too.  I was [...]

Our Stash

I am finally getting around to posting about our recent move to cloth diapers.  The main reason we switched was cost.  After we began to run out of the diapers we were given and began to use credit cards, I realized that it would cost us $40 a month to use disposable diapers.  So I [...]

Communication… An Unknown World…

Before we got married, everyone told us that communication is the most important aspect of a healthy marriage.  I don’t think we realized just how serious they were. Needless to say, we can both just confess that we really suck at communicating with each other. At times, I really think that our marriage is just [...]

Our Easter

Our first Easter as a married couple was spent in College Station without either of our families. We decided to have some friends over from Turkey to celebrate Easter with us. We really had a great time but it was a busy day. Right after church, we went to about 8 grocery stores (meaning in [...]

It is actually the IMB’s official site, and it is full of prayer opportunities, people group profiles, and other great resources that might give you an idea of what our ministry will entail. You will [...]
