Recipe: Bang Bang Chicken

I forgot to post this!!! Bang Bang Chicken, now keep in mind I've put two recipes together for this and it was YUMMY YUMMY! This is a spinoff of Bang Bang shrimp from Bonefish, but my husband is allergic to shellfish, so I wanted him to try this.

Bang Bang Chicken

Ingredients:

1. 10 Thawed Chicken Tenders
2. 1/2 Cup of mayonnaise
3. 1/4 Cup Thai Sweet Chili Sauce
4. 3-5 drops, Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce (Do not compromise this. KEY ingredient. It's the bottle w/ the rooster)
5. Panko bread crumbs (yes they carry these at Walmart)
6. 2 eggs, whisked
7. Vegetable Oil

Heat oil until hot, dip tenders into egg then bread the chicken in Panko bread crumbs, fry until brown/crispy. Continue through all chicken, drain on a paper towel.

Mix the mayo, Thai Sweet Chili Sauce, and Hot Chili Sauce, this should make a peach/redish mixture, and you simply coat the chicken in this. Taste test your sauce so that you can make it as hot or as sweet as you want.

I served this with Garlic Mashed potatoes and asparagus with Mary B's biscuits, hope you enjoy!
I wish I had a pic, sorry!

Fat Booth

So what's been going on ay? I've been doing some fun stuff!! haha, ALWAYS.

Last weekend, my good friend Leslee Hendrix married her love, Jordan Williams. She is now Mrs. Leslee Williams! I was so excited to be in her wedding, her colors were Garnet and Gold, and turned out so beautiful. My mom did my hair and did such a great job. They went on their honeymoon to Sandals in Jamaica, which just reminded me of Brandon and my honeymoon in Cancun, I loved it so much. So, CONGRATS to The Williams!


Lets see, I started sitting for one of the Doctor at work's kids. He has two kids, a boy and a girl and they are so cute!!! I will be doing that once a week, and I'm really excited about it! I'm excited about the Panorama at Olive on December 10 and 12. My coworkers are threatening to heckle me while I'm singing with the choir. Dear Lord please don't let this happen. lol. We are singing with two other churches which I think will be really great. You should come if you can!

I finished reading a book today, The Help by Kathryn Stockett. It was the next book on the list for the book club I'm in at work. We only meet once a month, but you'd be surprised at how fast that comes around! http://www.kathrynstockett.com/ you should definitely read it. It was a great book.

I'm of course stoked that Auburn is undefeated, and all we have left is the Iron Bowl! I hope all this nonsense about Cam Newton is just that, and that nothing else comes out. I hate that for Auburn and all the fans that are so excited for the wins. WAR EAGLE.Brandon went with the high school boys from the youth group and a bunch of manly men camping. Brandon doesn't get to do this much as he's married to a scardie cat. I was happy that he got to go. Since all the men were out, some of us wives went out to eat and to a movie. We went to Tuscan Oven and to see Morning Glory. Tuscan Oven was delicious!! All 4 of us got Sweet Tea, Salad, and all liked pepperoni pizza, YUMMY YUMMY! Morning Glory was "ok". I really wish they wouldn't have premarital sex in movies, it sends such a bad message. I understand if its Rated R, blah blah. I just i dunno hate it.

Speaking of Yummy Yummy, did you know there is a facebook app called Fat Booth and takes your picture and adds a few pounds. Here is one my friend at work did:I know this is so mean, but omgsh, if we can't laugh at ourselves who can we laugh at? A patient called today and I asked him how he was he said, "I can't look this good and feel bad!" Haha what a great attitude, lol.

We are trying to train Tux and Tenley better, they are very bad kids, I mean dogs. We are way to lenient. And while I'm on this tangent, WE ARE NOT HAVING KIDS YET. lol, there I said it.

I will try to update soon ok Emily??

See ya!

Football, Fishing, Fun!

Last Friday night, we of course went to the Pace game. It was Pace vs Tate! Unfortunately, my mom was overcome with kidney stones last week, and she and my dad didn't make it to the game. (She is doing better now) We had some guests sit with us who were visiting with some of our reserved section neighbors. This little boy was so funny! He would lick his hand and then ask me to give him a high five, I told him no! We started talking about our kids, Tux and Tenley, naturally! And, the little boy, Parker I think his name was, said that he had a yorki-poo but that she was getting a haircut. Later, his dad put his hand on his ears and said to us, that his wife had GIVEN THE DOG AWAY 3 months AGO, and told Parker that she was getting a haircut. omgsh.

Saturday morning we woke up bright and early and went deep sea fishing with my boss and his son, and our friends Sarah and Ted. Ted of course had to stop by Dunkin' Donuts. Where he always gets his blueberry coffee and blueberry everything else. So, for those of you that dont know, I cannot read and ride and have never been deep sea fishing until this. I usually get motion sickness on a roller coaster... you see where this is going? I was fine riding out, but once we started fishing and all the rockin and rollin' You guessed it... I "TU'ed" as Britt and Leslee would say... haha (friends of mine with phobias to throwing up) I wish I would have done it earlier because it made me feel alot better. We caught ALOT of snapper, but it wasn't snapper season, so we threw them back :( We caught some trigger fish, amberjack, a sucker fish, and many more! Here is me with a big snapper! Good times...
Sunday, we went to Sunday School, I I sang in the Choir, oh BTW, I joined the choir at Olive. :) We went to church and I can't seem to remember what else we did.......

This week we've been working, and catching up on TV shows. I got my hair did today and picked up my bridesmaid's dress for Leslee's wedding!!!!

I'm excited to watch Grey's tonite, and tomorrow starts the weekend for the High School retreat. My momma has been kind enough to watch our kiddos for us. I will take some pictures of that this weekend and post them!

See ya later,
Krista (&Brandon)

Back to school...new shows!

So Brandon started school a few weeks ago. Tuesday and Thursday nights and Saturday mornings I'm home with the pups. Therefore, I should be able to read my Bible more, and to post on my blog more right? haha. I've decided I'm going to do my laundry on these nights so that weekends are free for fun things! I want to start doing more crafts and things. I will update you guys on these things as I do them.

I'm so excited that college football has started back! War Eagle! Auburn looks pretty good this year, they scared me last week on that Thursday night game... whew, we pulled it out and beat Miss State. I'm excited to see what else is in store. Of course, back to school also means Pace Patriot Football! My parents still sit in the same seats at Pace, so Brandon and I get to capitalize on their tickets!! woot! My dad did say that we need to save our money and get our own. I figure 6 years of mooching has to end sometime. There is not much like a Friday night in Patriot stadium talking with friends and family and watching high school football. We love seeing our sweet "Connection Group" kids at the games. That's hip lingo for Sunday School in case you didn't know.

Speaking of Pace, Brandon was a sub today!!! I think he really enjoyed it and is exciting to get some more sub jobs. I really liked that he got to see the high school I went to. He is subing tomorrow as well for the lovely Mrs. Cassevah. :)

Next week I'm looking forward to some new TV Shows. I'm really into Glee, excited to see Raising Hope, and Grey's of course. Brandon and I started watching Survivor last year, so we rented Season One, its' been great. The Nicaragua Survivor started this week, its on TiVo right, but eventually we will watch it! Speaking of TV, I heard Gilmore Girls might be made into a movie, lets all say a prayer about that tonite. ;)

Until next time,
KRISTA (&Brandon, Tux and Tenley)

Man, I gotta get better at this blog thing!

Ola Friends. WOW. So much going on. Let's update, like before glee starts.

What you missed, read fast.

Brandon got a new job as a orthopaedic sales rep, everything was going great, then his boss turned out to be a super crazy person, they told brandon it wasn't working out, gave him a 60 day notice, yest, 60 days. Then a week later they said brandon was doing great, and that it was their management issues! forget about that 60 day thing, even though brandon didn't change a thing. then a few weeks later everything came back crazy again, and brandon decided that doing unethical things, being disrespected constantly, and lied to, wasn't exactly the job he was offered.

therefore, brandon is looking for a new job! :) He has currently signed up to be a substitute in Santa Rosa and Escambia counties, while starting an 11 month program at, Pensacola State College (PJC for your old schoolers), to get his professional teaching certificate. As I've told him a million times, he would be a great teacher and coach!

This is our new nephew! Brandon's sister, Angela and her husband, Derrick had a little boy, Zac!

Tenley this may be TMI, but Tenley had her time in the "heat". OMGSH We were not aware of the situation here, she had to wear a diaper for over a week. She has no tail, therefore, the diaper just slid off her fat booty. So, we were constantly having to pull up the diaper or we would find Tux helping her get it off. ay yi yi. Needless to say, she is getting "Fixed" asap.

This is where Tenley decided to destroy her pillow in her kennel.


Tux is enjoying being a big brother/boyfriend to Tenley. ;)

I (Krista) have still been working at The Andrews Institute as a Surgical Coordinator, learning lots! I recently joined the Choir at Olive, man Leo is intense! You have to go to practice 4 times before you can sing on Sunday! This is a long was from GtR at Immanuel. haha.

I'm excited for college football to start! Can't wait to cheer on my Auburn Tigers, and hope that they beat those Rebels when the time comes. We miss all our friends that moved away! Most recently, Clif and Emily Rateike. Clif is in the Marines, and they just moved to North Carolina. After that they will be going to California love. It's so sad, it seems like everything we get closed with a couple they have to move! :( Boo.

I've recently taken on the challenge to read my Bible in a year, I am so excited. God has been showing me so many things through Genesis. I have decided I want to do this every year. It helps me to recollect things when the time comes. I've also started reading Radical, by David Platt, so awesome I totally recommend!

So I said a little more than the intro to Glee. That's all for now, I'll leave you with a video of our fam!

Friends in town means fun!

Our friends, Ben and Courtney McHone came to see us all the way from Asheville, North Carolina!! Brandon knows Ben from middle school. We were so happy they could come and stay in our guest bedroom we decorated!

When the weather was good we went to the Beach, which was hit and miss because of the rain and the oil...We went to Pensacola Beach and Navarre Beach. I am really starting to like Navarre. Here are some pics!



We had to take them to local favorite restaurants to eat and places to go. This was our first time "hosting" full on guests! So give me a break if you think that I should have showed them other things. lol.

One day, Brandon had to go into work :( So we were on our own until about 1:00, so I took Ben and Courtney for lunch to Bass's (Kwik Burger) in Milton. YUMMY! My parents ended up buying our lunch so it worked out perfectly. lol. jk.

We ate at La Hacienda!! Of course, I mean Brandon did have his "Bachelor Party" there. What can I say, he loves the salsa and Chilaquiles! We didn't get pictures there :(

We ate in a couple nights. We went to Music in the Park, now called, Evenings in Old Seville Square, and ate at Tuscan Oven, of course. Gotta get the Mozzarella appetizer.





The last night they were here we decided to go to McGuire's. I had the Mahi which was delicous. I never know what to eat there. I got a kick out of Ben and Courtney freaking out over the menu with all the different burgers etc. We sat in the room with the infamous Moose. We did NOT kiss it. There was some drama with some military guys, but we left before it got to heated, but the manager was called. Here are some pics!


I will update more soon with some Golf and Tux and Tenley pics!

I shot a 127! haha

This past weekend was a blast!! On Friday night, since my dad and brothers were out of town on a Men's Retreat with LTC, my mom had nothing to do. So we invited her over for a lovely dinner of frozen pizza! haha, then we went to go to Iron Man 2. It wasn't as good as Iron Man, but still entertaining. Brandon thought that it was the same story line as Transformers 2, which made perfect sense. (Bad vs. Good, the bad dies, but then comes back to life) lol.

Saturday, Brandon and I went to the Stonebrook driving range to practice up on our golf skills, since we were playing on Sunday. It was pretty hot out there, but I didn't do horrible. Brandon and I did some shopping for his work stuff and then we watched Three Men and a Baby! haha. I had never seen that movie so I put it on our Blockbuster Total Access list, and there is came in the mail. I'm sure Brandon was THRILLED to see that title. But, he was a good sport and watched it with me.

Sunday, we went to Sunday School, (Brandon teaches the 12th Grade and I'm the secretary) and church at Olive. Then rushed to play golf at Marcus Pointe at 1:00. This was my FIRST ever 18 holes of golf experience and I shot a 127, not horrible, I was proud of myself! Plus- we thought it was hot on Saturday, that was NOTHING for Sunday. Then we went home to enjoy the LOST series Finale. I was disappointed to say the least. Parts of it I liked, but I really thought with all the details the series had, that the ending would be more intricate. I knew it wasn't going to be as this final season wrapped up, but nevertheless, it's over. :(

Hope your weekend was as good as mine!

Until next time,

The Henrys!

I'm a horrible blogger...

Ok guys, yes, I'm a horrible blogger, I never have time!!! I should make time... I know.

Things going on Lately-

Brandon got a new job, and has been working hard! He is working as an orthopaedic rep for tools/parts used in surgeries. He gets to go into surgeries and answer any questions that the surgeons have... This week is his 2nd week. I am so happy for him.

Tux and Tenley are getting along great! They just play non stop!

We have some friends from North Carolina coming in town the week after Memorial Day, Brandon and I decorated the guest bedroom in honor of their arrival. (Frankly, we didn't want to spend money on it in the past) It looks great! It's a nautical theme, I will post some pictures soon.

With Brandon's new job, he went to a training/conference in Jacksonville this past weekend, so I was home alone... Friday night I went to the Pace Baseball game to watch the last game at home before they go to STATE!! Next Monday at noon they are playing in Port St. Lucie. Wish them luck! On Saturday, I worked with my dad and brother throwing sod... yay. I did get a delicious lunch out of it from the Shrimp Basket. Saturday night, I got the honor of hanging out with Ms. Leslee Hendrix. We went to Ichiban and shared some yummy sushi and fried rice!!!! Then went to see Letters to Juliet which I really liked. Ashley Jones Thorsen was in town as she went to her brother's college graduation in Auburn, WAR EAGLE. So we met up with her later and talked... good times. Brandon came home on Sunday!!!! We did the normal sunday routine and then watched the SURVIVOR finale at Ted and Sarahs. FUN...

Until later... I will miss you until I return! ha

Long time no talk?

Okay okay, I never post on here. I will get better! We got a new laptop now, as our old one could only hold a charge for a minute. So I will be better!

UPDATES:

Family: Brandon and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary in June by spending the day together in Malbis. We went shopping, ate out, and saw a movie. I love being married, and couldn't have asked for a better "match" than Brandon to put up with me and my hair-brained antics. Brandon, Tux, and I spend our time lately watching college football, eating snacks. Brandon is teaching 12 Grade Sunday School now, which is exciting. I get to cook breakfast goodies for them every 3rd Sunday. Tux is growing so big! He is about 50 lbs now. We are thinking about getting him a little brother or sister in the future.... Brandon wants another boxer, but we will see. Brandon and I went on vacay with the Ringls the last week in September. We had a great time in Orlando! We went to Sea World, Aquatica, Islands of Adventure and Universal studios. We also spent some well deserved relaxing time by the pool and in the hot tubs! We went to Brandon's parents Halloween party last night, and found out that Brandon's big sister, Angela, is preggos! She is in her 14th week and so I have added her to my prayer list. My brother, Matt, is building his first house, and is ecstatic! I cannot wait to see the finished product. Brandon and I went over there last week to help him clean up before an inspection, which he passed!

Work: Brandon is still working at NWFHG, he likes it but is praying for a change in his life to do something more related to his degree. I started a new job in June at the Andrews Institute. YES! Still having to drive to Gulf Breeze everyday. But, I enjoy it. My title is Medical Assistant (Clerical) / Scheduler and I mainly work for Dr. Paulos, on Thursdays, Dr. Andrews. Dr. Paulos is a knee and shoulder specialist if you are interested, let me know I will get you in! I am trying to get Brandon a job there in research, which is right up his alley! Please pray!

Sports: I still love Auburn football, and yes we stink. But we have tickets for the game next week and I can only hope that we beat Ole Miss so that Brandon won't rub it in on the 3.5 hour ride home!

Etc: Our house is coming along, we need visitors in our guest bedroom! We have added our touches over the last year and are just so proud. I am growing my hair out! YAY.

I will try to update more often!!!

MISS ALL OF YOU WHO ARE FAR AWAY NOW! :(

Easter! and Tux...

Our lives have been consumed with Tux lately, since he doesn't have all his shots, he can't really go anywhere... he is so cute!

Tux playing...

Tux lounging in his backyard...

Tux snoozing next to daddy...

Tux wearing our stuffed Boxer's, Slugger, hat!

Also, this was our first Easter married, so we decided to take a family photo! My mom was supposed to take these, but she forgot her camera. Therefore, this was taken on my camera with a timer, and we have a cool timer that will take 3 pics in a row. I thought it would be funnier to show you ALL the pics...

Happy Easter!

Grandpa...

If you know me very well you know that I listen to music constantly. I was listening to my Judds CD this morning and this song came on. A classic, but I really got to thinking how true it is today.

Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days
Sometimes it feels like this worlds gone crazy
Grandpa, take me back to yesterday
When the line between right and wrong
Didn't seem so hazy

Did lovers really fall in love to stay
And stand beside each other, come what may
Was a promise really something people kept
Not just something they would say
Did families really bow their heads to pray
Did daddies really never go away
Woah oh, grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days

Grandpa, everything is changing fast
We call it progress, but I just don't know
And grandpa, Let's wander back into the past
And paint me the picture of long ago


Did lovers really fall in love to stay
And stand beside each other come what may
Was a promise really something people kept
Not just something they would say and then forget
Did families really bow their heads to pray
Did daddies really never go away
Woah oh, grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days
Woah oh, grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days


Mhmm, mhmm, mhmmm, mhmm, mhmm,
mhmm mhmm

Mhmm, mhmm, mhmmm, mhmm, mhmm,
mhmm mhmm

Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Did daddies really never go away?

Tux Henry, like Tuxedo....

So, if you know us, you know that we've been wanting a puppy forever! But, we've always said we were going to wait a certain amount of time, etc, etc.


Well, on Saturday we went to look at puppies!!!!! We drove to Bonifay, FL (Hoomes County) to visit two litters of puppies. And after much thought and the hour and a half drive home, we decided on a little guy....

We think we're going to name him Tux because he has a white chest and white on the ends of his little paws. In about 4 weeks we will go pick him up! He and his brothers and sisters were born on January 23rd! Yes, that is MY BIRTHDAY! YAY!!!! Here is a pic of Tux:When we get him, I will DEFINITELY update with more pics of our son!

no need for titles

i guess you could say we've just been living life. last week we did our normal things, chuch, crossroads, chosen, etc. Wednesday night Pastor Ted started a 4 week long "study" with the couples that got married at Olive within the last year. We are doing a study called "Love Busters" This should be really good for us! Brandon admitted to the class that he was OCD and that he maybe should tone it down. LOL. Anyway, we've only been married for what going on 8 months. We have A LOT to learn about each other, etc. should be fun.

Thursday night we ate some yummy lasagna at Brandon's parents house. His mom has been trying out new recipes on us, we love em! delicious. After tha, we went to BCM and saw some old friends. Blum was speaking and Rachel invited us, so... we went. I think I either caught something from BCM or work, either way, I started to get sick:(.

Friday night, we went with Brandon's coworkers to Chilis to say goodbye to some people who were leaving and to celebrate someone's birthday. It's kinda cool because I used to work there before him, so I get to see people again! I went to bed at like 9 oclock!!

Saturday I sat on the couch! Watched a couple episodes of LOST season 4. We went bowling with Brandon's parents, their friends, Steve, Amanda and Ava and DANIMAL. (aka Dan Benigno) There was a special of buy two hours get one free, we used the free one that day!!!! wow 3 hours of bowling... me and amanda cut out during hour 3. We got there about 4:45 and left at like 8:30, we la ha'd it up then went home.

Since I was still sick on Sunday, we didn't go to church. I watched more LOST and we went to bed early. Brandon and my bro Matt worked on the hot tub getting it ready to use! And Dan came over to get it going electrically. We are excited!!! Steve and Amanda really want us to get it going, (m&e amanda said she always wanted you guys to) haha

I stayed home from work today, just trying to feel better. Pray for me!!

Valentine's Day is next weekend, I'm thinking of how to celebrate... wish me luck.

xoxo,
krista

It's been a long time coming down...

Well we've been busy. Between Christmas, going out of town, dealing with family, first Christmas as a married couple, etc. etc. We've been just busy little bees.

Work has been busy for both of us, but we are so thankful to have jobs!!

so, this week...
I celebrated my 23rd birthday last Friday on January 23! Yes, that's right my GOLDEN BIRTHDAY! In my family that means you get a cookie cake. Work threw me a party and I got a cookie cake there too! For lunch that day I got to eat at Tra Fertelli (Three Brother's) and I'm sure I spelled that wrong. Anyway, it was delicious! My wonderful husband 'dinner and movied me' that night. We ate at the Tuscan Oven!!! (Matt and Elizabeth we know you miss it) Which is amazing! We didn't get our normal waitress, Amanda, but we did get a waiter that had a striking resemblance to EDWARD CULLEN. I told him that, he said, "Who?" Then Brandon and I went to see "Revolutionary Road." Which should have been titled, "Horrible Movie."

***SPOILER ALERT***
they fight and fight and fight. and just when you think its going to get better, they fight some more. then he cheats on her, then she cheats on him. THEN SHE DIES!!!!!!! Let's not call this a good date movie, or golden birthday movie.

Saturday I went shopping with my mama mia. She's my favorite shopping partner! Then that night we went to Bonefish. Our table had 3 Bang Bang shrimps! YUM YUM. We went with my parents, my brothers, and Brandon's parents. It was a great dinner. Later, we went to a coworkers house and played Cranium and we taught them MAFIA, which they really got into.

Sunday morning we went to church and it was the last week of Pastor Ted's talks on the youth of our Nation. So, all of the Chosen girls wore our shirts and sat in the front to make a statement!

Brandon and I watched some movies on Sunday afternoon! We love our blockbuster total access!

Right now, I am just wishing the next 55 mins will go by fast! LOST IS COMING ON!!!!

Chosen, Dave Ramsey, and sports

Well our lives have been busy. SO BUSY- not time to take pics! Sorry Tara! When people tell you that when you get older you just get busier, that is so true.

For the last few weeks I've been working with Whitney and Christi Tyner on the Chosen high school girls ministry from Olive. Well. the "Pace" class. This has been great for me. I have always wanted to teach high school just because I really enjoyed that time of my life. These girls are great, they have such a thirst for God and they just want to learn! Please pray that this goes well and the girls learn alot.

Brandon and I started a class on Sunday afternoons call FPU, Financial Peace University. It's so great, Dave Ramsey uses his life experiences of getting out of debt, building wealth, and retiring with dignity to teach others. We are taking the class at Pine Terrace Baptist Church in Milton. It's a 13 week class, so a big commitment! We are learning so much. It so awesome once you get your finances together how you can give more to ministry and furthering God's kingdom. Not to mention, retire, something I thought our generation couldn't do!! Brandon and I like it so much, we are most likely going to teach the class next spring.

College Football, MLB Playoffs, NFL, Pace High! Our weekends have been consumed with Sports lately! Every Friday night we've been going to the Pace games. My parents have season tickets and that is so fun. Not to mention, my buds in the Press Box that I visit every time I come back. So nice to have a "home." I remember going to the games as an elementary school student. MEMORIES, and WOW time flies. Every Saturday we invite whoever wants to come over to watch some college football. WAR EAGLE!!!! My tigers lost last week, but thats okay. I'm still a fan! Brandon's so happy that Ole Miss is actually winning ;) jk honey.


We are wanting to go camping one of these weekends. Hoping to give you an update on that and some pics of our adventure!

Until next time!
xoxo,
Krista and Brandon

Hello Mrs. Lady!

Hello All! I have been lacking in the posting department, please forgive me. We've been busy busy bees.

Last Friday we had the Harrod's over for dinner, and it was so nice to have them. We ate steak! yum yum. Then we had alot of Olive friends over to play Mafia, which was fun. I wasn't in the Mafia the whole night!

Saturday was rainy and we kept waiting for the bottom to drop out but it never did. So we headed to Pensacola and had tacos with Sarah & Ryan- a ritual we are trying to start. Oh! And we also watched American Gangster, yikes.
Sunday we overslept and missed church, and when we finally woke up, I made some pancakes and bacon, YUMMY and we watched Perfect Stranger with Bruce Willis and Halle Berry. Wow, a great movie, a little twisted with that guy from The other sister, but good nonetheless. Then we went to my parents and hung out for awhile, went into Pensacola and bought up Bed Bath and Beyond and went home and had a nice dinner, just the two of us.

This week has been fun Brandon accepted a new job at NWFHG, where I worked before SG. As an EKG tech and all around diagnostic testing assistant. I think he's really excited since he will be working from 8-4:30 and no weekends! :) Not to mention it's a step in the direction of healthcare which is his love.

I am going to be working with the high school girls on a Bible study called Chosen this semeseter. Whitney and Christy are working with the girls in Pace and Mrs. Sturgeon is doing the Pensacola girls. EXCITING :)

My aunt Marla is in town for her high school reunion so we went to Bonefish last night. I had never been there, it was sooo good. That bang bang shrimp, yummy!!! I just realized I talk ALOT about food.

Well until next time,
xo,
krista
