Wedding Pics!!

I'll let the pictures do the talking....it was amazing!!

Hopie- My dollbaby!

I realized I haven't posted any recent pictures of my favorite 6 month old....MISS Hopie Rhodes Herrenbruck. Erin sent me some the other day and this one is my new computer desktop!! I'm LOVIN' IT!

Hopie goes swinging!

These pictures crack me up! Erin took Hopie swinging for the first time today (I SO wish I could have been there to see her) and at first she freaked out, and then, she loved it!!






















And then- in other big news- she's starting to sit up on her own now!! YAY Hopie!! I got to watch her via Google Video chat. It's just the funniest thing to see her sit up, and then just completely fall over! I guess we shouldn't laugh, but it is funny!

Women & Family

Okay, now for a quick update on my weekend. We were in Atlanta, GA for our denomination's national women's conference on Thursday, Friday and part of Saturday. The conference was at the Omni Hotel in downtown Atlanta. Beautiful hotel and I loved being downtown in a big city. We stayed outside of Atlanta at a friend's house. The weekend was VERY impacting...there were some amazing speakers and most importantly, God really spoke to me about some specific things. It was awesome! I also got to go to H&M which I SO love to do when I get a chance AND my very first trip to IKEA ever! So great! I didn't get much b/c there was only about 1 thing I needed, but I loved the experience and we did get some cinnamon rolls and coffee on our way out. (Yes, IKEA has cinnamon rolls!)





After the conference ended at noon on Saturday, I drove to meet my brother, Dylan and his fiance Meaghan, who currently lives in Atlanta doing grad school. I spent Saturday evening with them and Meaghan's parents, and had a GREAT time. They are super fun and I am so glad they're going to be part of my extended family on August 14th!



We ate, laughed, looked at pictures, went to church and then ended the time at Barnes & Noble with me reading and them studying.
(They both have TONS of studying right now in their lives!) I had a great drive back....made it to my house in 3 1/2 hours and spent pretty much the ENTIRE time on the phone until it died. Sunday Jordan and I relaxed and ate Moe's, and watched a little Oscar's action before crawling into bed.

I am thankful for an awesome weekend in which God moved and I had a great time with friends and family!

It was an eventful Christmas season. I can hardly believe it's already the second week of January, but Jordan and I are excited and ready for this new year. It's sure to be a year full of change, new things, excitement, ups and downs, but God has been and will continue to be faithful. I've found that all the stretching has produced good things in the past and I believe it will continue to produce good things in the future.

One thing's for sure: it's going to be the "year of the Baby!" We are getting ready to welcome the first in quite a stream of babies into this world among our good friends. Jordan and I are excited about what God has in store as we seek Him on building our family as well- just a little "unconventionally" if you will! haha....

Enjoy a couple of photos from our time in Florida! (which was wonderful!!!)

Well we've had a great Christmas so far! We are currently in Florida visiting the 'Roe' side of the family, but we had SO much fun with the Warnock side and had quite the eventful few days. Jordan and I spent the night up at my mom and dad's on Christmas Eve, which was so fun to be there with Mom & Dad, Dylan and Robby & Ferris. We all woke up on Christmas morning and had a great time opening gifts, laughing and the best things in life: family!
We had a relaxing afternoon, playing games and cooking and then the Moore family and Stacee Strickland came over for a fabulous Christmas Dinner! We had a great time playing with the kids and getting frustrated playing "Are You in Cahoots," although Dylan and I figured it out (it took me a while) Mom and I went shopping the next morning to Target first to get gift wrap for next year, and I found some great stuff! The next few days were fun and relaxing and then on Sunday, one of the MOST exciting things happened! Dylan (my brother) proposed and got engaged to Meaghan Davis!!
We are SO excited and I am SO pumped about having Meaghan in the family!!! We had such a fun time eating with them at Opryland and getting to be with Meaghan's parents and sister who drove in from Atlanta to surprise her. SO FUN!!! I love Christmas and I LOVE my FAMILY!!!

Sorry I haven't posted lately....I've been busy with my baby niece!! More later....

What a great weekend we had! I think yesterday (Sunday) was the best part. I got to served in nursery/two's for first service and just had a great time with all the precious wonderful little kiddos! They are SO precious! And then second service was wonderful...GREAT time of worship and an awesome teaching! It was our Thanksgiving service so we showed a video of three families talking about what God had done in their lives over the past year and that was wonderful. I had a meeting for the upcoming Kid's production after second service, and got home around 4:00 and we started the super fun decorating process! All four of us- Jordan, myself, Janel and Laurel spent the next few hours decorating and pulling things out! So fun!! We still have a few things to do but the main things are finished and I LOVE it. And then, we watched a SUPER exciting game as the Colts beat the Chargers...SO MUCH BETTER than the game last year..that was horrible and SO sad...so I was VERY happy about that. Today promises to be a great day and this evening we are going down to Green Hills to go to California Pizza Kitchen, and do some shopping at amazing stores like Anthropologie, Trader Joe's and Teavana! YAY! Have a great day!

We had fun last night. Grandma and Grandpa were here, of course, and Meaghan and Dylan pulled in just as we were ready to eat. We all sat around outside on Mom & Dad's beautiful deck and enjoyed the nice weather, food and family. We all worked on tying the ribbons on programs and just enjoyed being together. I left around 10:15 and came home to make a cheesecake, slice some fruit and cheese and just do some initial prep for tonight. Jordan and Meaghan got here around 12:30 and I think we all pretty much fell into bed. Today's going to be a nice, semi-relaxing day! Tonight is a shower for Ferris that I am hosting, so I'll try and post some pictures from that.

TUCSON PICS!

Tucson Update!!

We are having a great time in Tucson Arizona. It's a neat place- very deserty- very cool. Don't have time (well, not really true- just don't want to right now) to fully update so here are some pictures to enjoy, and I'll tell you about them later.

I didn't get one of mom & dad- I know mom does so I'll post that later!

I really cannot even begin to put into words what I want to write about today. Today, as many of you know, is Jordan's birthday! Jordan and I have been married 2 &3/4 years (that's an approximation) and it has been nothing short of amazing.

We all know Jordan in different ways, some as a son, brother, neighbor, youth leader, friend, counselor, nephew, grandchild, confidant, and many, many more! But one of the things I love most about Jordan is his consistency! He has a wonderful sense of humor, never missing an opportunity to laugh, even if it's at himself.

Jordan: you are greatly cherished, admired, celebrated and loved! I truly believe this will be the best year that you've lived, and your impact on others will be more far-reaching than it has been the past 25 years combined.

I love you with all my heart.

And now I present, "The many activities of Jordan Michael Roe"

Pictures from Christmas 2007: Part 1

Sampling of some pics...

I'll add more later.....our Christmas is only half way done! We're at the Orlando airport about to go back through security to get on our flight to Nashville. We left Naples at 7:00 this morning- it was an early one for sure! We had an incredible time in Florida and now we're excited to see the other side of the family and get to do it all over again :-) I LOVE this time of year!
