Off to school

Here was Caroline this morning (really early...like 6am) as we were about to leave to go to her "school". Her little sleepy eyes are so sweet along with her crazy "Austin powers" dress. Yeah baby!

OK!  Meet my little brother, Cameron! You guys!!--I think he is such a catch!!!  He is 30 years old and lives in Austin, TX.  After college, he worked in the oil and gas industry for about 5 years.  But!-he has recently started his own successful company which acquires oil and gas mineral rights through Texas and Oklahoma.  I am so amazed at his ambition, discipline, and smarts!! He is a Texas boy at heart.  We were both raised in Corpus Christi and he has lived in San Antonio and Houston before landing in Austin.  He is a Christian and has been recently attending The Austin Stone Church.  He loves to travel and usually goes skiing a few times each season.  He also loves the beach too!  He loves to listen to music (awesome in Austin), enjoys a nice beer, and is the best uncle to 3 nieces and a nephew.  Oh- and he is tall! 6'3" Email me if you are interested, and I would love to make a match! hscullen@gmail.com ...

Our Weekend

What a fun weekend!  The older 3 are staying with their mom this weekend, and since EG had a cross country meet in Birmingham on Saturday, Brett and I decided to pack up and go stay the weekend with our dear friends The Kings.  You see....sad for us, good for them...a great job opportunity came up for Jeremy in Birmingham this summer.  And so, about 3 weeks ago they moved up there leaving us with a sad heart!  We cannot be more thrilled for them though - Claire is in a GREAT new school, Jeremy is happy at his new position, and Faith loves their new house and the much better shopping.  Ha!  I didn't even take pictures of their new house.  Crazy!!  It is wonderful!  Their backyard looks out onto beautiful trees, a lake, and great views of the hills in Birmingham.  Saturday morning, we got up and our amazing husbands took Caroline and Claire for the day and Faith and I got to run around shopping.  Such bliss!  Of course, the time ...

I digress... So each month we have a tithe column and a giving column in our budget.  We feel as a family th...
