Update! / Short Pump weekend!

Hey yall,
So we are planning on leaving Friday........ but that may change to Saturday. Please pray for us! My dad is rapping up on jobs, we need to switch my dad's tools out and put in storage, then put what is in storage that we are taking down to Florida, and put in the trailer! CRAZINESS! haha

Josh is doing fine! His numbers are still all over the board...... up and down..... down and up...... But he has had no other problems! THANK YOU, LORD! Please continue to pray for him!

Fun Times;

So, Kelsey and I had a big weekend!!!!! GREAT FUN! Friday night we went to the Kruger's for the night to hang out with Jone. We enjoyed the 2 for $20 deal at Applebees, and that was very filling! Then we walked over to Short Pump (and which felt like a very long walk, probably because it was so cold! lol). We walked around, and that was a lot of fun! While we wated for Mr. Kruger to pick us up, we went over to Dick's Sporting Goods, and "played" mini golf (on that practice thingy they have). That was alot of fun! haha We had a blast just hanging out, and watching Madagascar 2. LOVE YA, JONE!

Then Saturday, Nikki and Kelsey set up at time for us and a few close friends to go shopping at Short Pump. That was alot of fun as well! Corrin Brewer, Hannah Hopper, Kim Shaffer, and Lydia Brackett joined us! It was a great group of girls! We just walked around, and took pictures! LOVE YOU ALL!


Thank you so much for your prayers!
I will let you know if anything comes up!
Love yall!

One more week! NO!

Hey yall,
So we have left Powhatan..... we are staying with the Hagen's till next Monday.

This weekend was CRAZY! What could have gone wrong, probably went wrong! That kind of weekend. So it was none stop with packing at the last minute, but on top of we had to pick out what we needed for a week at the Hagen's, what we need for 2 months at the Keene's, and what to put in storage till we get back for graduation and bring everything back to Florida. That was a job! Let me tell ya! lol........ Becca moved out yesterday morning.... SNIFF SNIFF! I miss my big sister! that was hard! Then after her people left, we were going, and going, and going. Gg and Don came over and brought Domino's! So that was nice! And to monition, I had 4 cups of regular coffee and 1 decaf! That was a lot for me! I norm have 1 cup a day. And when I talked to a friend on the phone at 8..... they were like, "I can totally tell you had that much!" haha I thought that was funny! But I did not go to sleep till 2:30 am. Then slept in till 10 (skipped church...... sniff sniff) and when I awoke and raised out of my bed, I went to strait to work. NOT FUN!

Well, the Hagen's, and Gg and Don came over to help this afternoon........ WOW! We could not have done it with out their help!

When we could finally see the light at the end of the tunnel, my mom thought she through away the moola we made from selling a lot of our stuff. Well, after more craziness and a lot of prayers, they found the cigar box with the money in it at the storage! PRAISE GOD! When my mom and I got in the car to head out of the country from the storage unit, we had both dogs, Snuggs (my cat) and Michael Phelps (my Betta fish) with us. Charlie and Claire were going crazy and making the driver seat go backwards, down, up and forwards. Snuggs was crying, and I could not help move the dogs, b/c Micky was in my lap. So we had to pull over in the Foodlion parking lot to fix it all! Mom and I were laughing our heads off! IT WAS TO FUNNY!

Now, we are here at the Hagen's........ with 2 dogs (one 90 pounds and the other 75), 2 cats (both male) and a fish. PLEASE, keep us in your prayers!

7 more days!
Love you all!

Last Days in Powhatan

Hey everyone!
Sorry I have not written in a while! Been a little busy!

So, we are pretty much packed... and every thing that needed to go in storage, is in storage. The rest of the stuff that is in the house, is going with us to Florida now. The house is soooooo empty! We will be moving out of this blue house in Powhatan, tomorrow......... Sunday, March 15th. Then we will be staying with the Hagen's till March 23rd. And then our long journey to Florida begins.

Other news...... I had an ortho appointment this week, and my mom talked to them about my braces, and I have to come back in April. Then if I wear my rubber bands 24/7 and every thing goes well and fast, I will get my braces off May 22nd, the day before graduation. Sooooo, I am going to be flying back up by myself or my grandmother in Florida might fly up with me. Please pray that they will come off then! If they don't come off, then I will have to come back in June. Not fun!

Thank you for you prayers!!!
Love you all!

Change of Plans

Hey yall!
Hope your week is going smoothly! Mine is a little crazy! :o\
Just wanted to give you an update on what is going on in the Fern house.......... The latest is we are moving a lot sooner than what we thought! We will be moving in the middle of March. The 16 and 26 are the days we are looking at, but have not set one yet. More sad news is that I will not be playing my 3rd year of varsity girls soccer with the CVHAA Patriots. :( Which is very hard!!!!!!! But to show that God is in all this, the church we will be returning too (Liberty Church) has a soccer team. And my dad registered me today! God knew He was taking something I was looking forward to in my senior year, and has provided another way for me to enjoy it! What a blessing!

Oh! Yeah! Forgot this important thing! lol.... We will be staying with 1 of my mom's younger sisters, Stacy, and her family. They have a nice size house (with an in ground pool I might add). So my parents will be getting the guest bedroom, and thank you to my wonderful aunt Stacy! The 3 of us Fern kids will be getting our own room while we stay there!!!!!! What another blessing!

You might be wondering about work and school for me (or not! you can skip this part if you want... heehee) I will be working at Rink Management until March 13th. sniff sniff.... I have really enjoyed working there since the start of August! And I am sad to go! But I will be looking for another job down in FL after I graduate........ As for school, I will be coming back (along with my fam) in the middle of May for graduation!!!!!!!!! And my plans after graduation are to work for a year, and in the fall of 2010, I will attend PJC (Pensacola Jr. College).

Thank you for your prayers! But I do ask for a few more!
  1. That this will all go well! And that my parents will have wisdom in what they need to plan!
  2. Yes I am looking forward to this new start! But it is going to be very hard for me! And now that it is sooner, it makes it even harder! And to add to that, I will not be playing with Kim Shaffer in soccer and a few other friends. (<3 you Kim!)
  3. Pray that God will give the WHOLE family peace! It is making it a little harder that it is sooner!
  4. Pray for the Keene family. One of my mom's sisters is who we will be staying with. Pray for Ross, Stacy, Olivia and Gweneth....... that they can put up with the five of us and our two very BIG golden retrievers! And plus, they have two little dogs, so pray that if the dogs are together at any point....... they will do well with each other!
  5. This is a silly request, but I do want to ask! :) If you did not know, I have a Crown-tail Betta fish, and I really do not want him do die during the move! lol....... His name is Michael Phelps (got him after the olympics fyi!)

Thanks for your prayers! And I will keep you updated!
Love you all! And we will deff miss you!
