The latest and greatest!

I can hardly believe how much time has gone by since the last time Bryan or I wrote. Especially me!! So much has gone on this summer and we haven't shared any of it with you. Let's see, my boys (Joshua and Jonathan) spent the month of July in Georgia with my parents. Kirsten (Bryan's daughter) got to spend 3 weeks in Georgia with Bryan's sister Suzy. I got to take a week off and spend it with my guys in Georgia before I drove home. While I was there, I got to meet Kirsten and Suzy and Hannah (Suzy's daughter) for the first time!! It was incredible! It was like we had know each other forever! The next weekend I flew back to GA. for our multiclass reunion which was awesome!! Bryan and I decided NOT to have a big wedding but rather to get married on the beach in Georgia with only our immediate family there. And of course, Chill Pastor will be officiating!! There was never any doubt about that!! And we set a date: March 29, 2008. Yaay!! I can hardly wait! I think that gets it for June and July. Now for upcoming events!

School starts for both Kirsten and Joshua and Jonathan on the 27th. Kirsten will be a junior, Josh will be in 8th grade and Jon will be in 4th. I'm not real sure what classes Kirstie is taking or if she's ready for school to start back, but I do know this...she is one smart cookie and I know she's going to have an awesome year!! I am seriously hoping that Joshua will decide to show what he is truly capable of and not have another year like last year. It was a constant battle!! Josh is taking a couple of cool electives (spanish and theatre arts) so hopefully he'll enjoy his classes a bit better. Jonathan will be at a new school this year but he's very excited. We found out who his teacher is the other day and he's excited about going to open house later this week. It's a brand new school so he's anxious to get inside and snoop it all out. Bryan's son, Corey, leaves for Ohio University on the 30th. He is psyched and ready to head out on his own. Bryan is getting a little sentimental about his son heading off to college but is very excited for him. Corey wants to be a record producer which I think is very cool!! Music runs deep in the veins of the Poindexter men!!!

Bryan is moving to Pearland the first weekend of November. 77 days and counting!! I move into our new 3 bedroom apartment at the end of September so I have a month to get it ready before he moves in. I can not wait to begin my life with Bryan. He is such a God send. He has so completely changed my world that I can not even begin to express the love that I feel for him. God knew exactly what and who I needed in my life and I am thankful every single day for the blessing of Bryan. He loves the Lord with all his heart and he shares his faith and the Lord's leading everyday. He is amazing and a constant example of who I want to be!! Hopefully, he'll be along soon and share a few of his insites. I love reading what God places in his heart to share!!

I hope this finds you all doing well. I plan on not being gone so long. I'm going to just start writing whatever is on my heart and try to keep y'all posted on the latest happenings in the Poindexter/Toruno family. I send my love to each of you.

Until next time.....sweet dreams and God bless you!!
