I know, I know.


It's been a while since I have posted a new blog. I have been really busy lately. Here's a little update on the past week. Alexas and I went back to the doctor on Wednesday and we got to see the baby again. You can kinda see the head and face in this pic. The baby was laying at a funny angle so we have to go back in 4 weeks just to make sure everything is ok. I will post video soon.

Tuesday night was a distant second to Wednesday morning, but it was still kinda cool. I had to cover The American Idol concert for work and after it was over we had to follow up on a rummor that Taylor Hicks, the american idol, was playing with his old band at a bar outside of town. I really didn't want to go, I wanted to get a good nights rest to be ready to see my baby in the morning but I had no choice. After waiting for about an hour Taylor did show up, aswell as sveral other of the contestants from the show. Derek and I got a bunch of interviews and some video of the after party concert and headed back to the station at 1:45am.

On Saturday my parents came down to help me cut some trees and clear some of my yard that looks like a forest. We worked all day and I felt real bad because my dad works him self to death during the week anyway. I love my parents very very much and they are always there for me but they need God in their lives so bad. My Dad is a good man and he knows Jesus died for him but my Grandfather has been such a negative influence on him and my Uncle for so long that it's made my Dad's heart hard toward going to churh. He's says he knows he should go when I ask him about it but yet he still doesn't. My Mom tries to go but she is afraid that it will increase the distance between her and my Dad if she gets involved in church. They need our prayers so very badly. Please pray that God will soften my fathers heart and give him compassion and love for my mother and that he will humble himself befor God. And that God would give my mother patientence with my father and those around her, and confidence in herself. I also pray that God would keep my mother company. My father works so much, and she gets very lonely.

That night my sister who had came down to my house was following my Mom and Dad up to her house rear ended my dad. It was rainy and my Dad had slowed down thinking he was in the wrong lane. Also my sister follows to close. There wasn't a lot of damage. Cassie's car will need a hood but other than that it wasn't bad. Dad's truck wasn't hurt at all.

Sunday morning started great. The video went very well at Church, and God has blessed me with some very talanted volunteers. After Church I went to help Cassie my Mom and Dad pick up a dryer from Home Depot. After we lugged it up to Cassie's condo and got it out of the box we found a huge dent it the front and back. So we had to take it back except they didn't have another one. So Dad and Cassie had to drive to Pineville to get a dryer, except they didn't have this dryer either. So then they went to Lowes and finnaly found the one they needed. While all this store hopping was going on my Mom and I were at the Urgent Care because I cut my finger open as we were taking the dented dryer back down the stairs. So if you see typeos in this post it's because i'm typing with just nine fingers. Dad had to ride my bike back to my house for me becuase after the stitches I couldn't squeeze the break. Right now Mom and Dad are driving back to Lansing. Mom in Cassie's car and Dad in the truck. I pray they make it safe. Dad is bad to fall asleep driving. They should be there by 12:00.

Please pray for my family, Alexas and the comming baby, my sisters new job, and me becoming full time at CHBC.
