The year 2012 is setting up to be an absolute about face from the life we have been living over the last few years. We are moving our office, restructuring our company, and a ton of other things. The year 2012 is beginning to appear to be a transitional year in our journey on this earth. God is moving mountains and we are thrilled to be able to be in a position to watch Him work His miracles. Continue to keep us in your prayers as we walk this road hand in hand with the Creator of the Universe!
We are going to be spending Thanksgiving this year in Mobile. Black Friday shopping without my mom isn't ever the same but we all have to grow up and live without our mommas! :-) Anyway, I will be making the famous Virginia Hornsby Lemon Meringue Pies and Tony will be hunting some, I'm sure. I'm going to go on and take my Christmas presents down because I've gotten that shopping out of the way and we'll be headed back late Sunday night. Hope that this season brings you all a little closer to the Lord and a little more grateful for your family and friends and what you've been given. We are blessed beyond measure and all have more than we deserve in Him! God bless and Happy Thanksgiving from the three of us!

the big 3-0!!!
So Tony left his twenties yesterday and found his way to the 30s! We had a great weekend spent kid-free and really enjoyed just being together. We layed in the bed 'til past 6:45 (which NEVER happens) and stayed up late talking. We spend those cherished moments of silence, just enjoying the other person's presence while the world continued to turn around us. We made a day trip to Blue Lake on Saturday which was refreshing to the Spirit and we laughed... A LOT! What a great way to spend his big day by making it a big weekend.
Chip spent the night with Hoppie and Papa which was, of course, a big treat. After every meal he got ice cream and cookies, got to skip his nap to play outside in the dirt with the trucks and tractors and had an endless supply of love, hugs, kisses, and giggles to top it all off.
What a great weekend we all had! How refreshing to be able to say that we spent it with family and we wouldn't have had it any other way. We are blessed beyond measure and we know it. We daily find time to praise the Lord as a family, whether in the morning or at bedtime, for what and whom He has blessed us with in our lives and the daily struggles are but a fleeting moment in the big picture. Take a moment today to thank your Heavenly Father for what you have and where you are blessed, because, we all, truly are, blessed beyond measure!

oh that time of year
So it is that time of year again and i have to say that the season is drawing near just like i feel like the Lord is drawing near in our lives. I feel so strongly that the Lord is doing a work in our lives along with drawing us near to him in this season. I don't have much to say today but thought i would leave you with a few pictures of our trip to the pumpkin patch. Happy Thanksgiving season and God bless you all :-)

its just around the corner
well, the season is drawing near that christmas music will be in all the stores, children will be making wish lists, and adults will be deciding what their new years resolutions will be. It is also a time of reflection for us as we look back on the past years losses, accomplishments, milestones and everything else. What an incredible year so far for the Sharp family here in Dothan! We began the couponing 'thing' this year and saved thousands, Chip grew leaps in bounds both physically and mentally, we will celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary in a month and a half and our marriage in this 6th year has been the best yet! what about you?
this weekend, we went shopping and got tons accomplished. Chip was getting over bronchitis (we went on and got that out of the way early this year with the weather change, apparently :-P) and so no outside fun for us on this beautiful weekend, but we got lots done. We did some major grocery shopping where we were very successful and we also did some christmas shopping! We got some great deals and even had coupons for the toys for all the 'littles' in the family. we saved over 50% average on all of our weekend shopping and what a nice feeling! Chip is feeling better, finally, and he doesn't sound like he has smoked for 40+ years anymore and so we are on the mend and grateful for what we have! Hope that this finds you grateful and doing well! Loving you all and missing you all even more!
