God's protection....

As many of you know, God totally watched over me (Megan) this past week. I hydroplaned off of I-75 last Tuesday. It was an indescribable experience. I could feel God's presence and it was as if His hand was slowing my car down. I had felt like something bad was going to happen on Tuesday, so I spent all Monday night praying for my family to be okay. When I woke up Tuesday to go to Knoxville and Maryville, I still had that feeling. I continued to pray. When I was coming back home, I hit a stretch of hard rain. I had just switched to the slow lane to get away from a motorcycle before I headed for the grass. God protected me...just as I had been praying. I was so at peace during the entire thing, but once I realized how God had timed my movements, I started crying. I was so thankful! On Thursday, I realized that I had been driving without my license for who knows how long. But God worked that situation out well because on Friday, I was able to renew my license a year ahead of time. On my way home from looking at cars that morning, I blew a tire on I-24 downtown. So I pulled into on a place to wait for Raun and one of his co-workers to come change my tire. Let's just say that it was definitely a long week. However, God's protection and His love made this past week bearable. All I could do was smile when I got to Friday and praise God my car still runs and nothing was hurt on it!





We have been making small updates to our house, which has been lots of fun. I'm really looking forward to getting the downstairs built. Raun's been spending lots of time researching how to go about that, so hopefully this winter it can be finished! I'll post some pictures of some of the new updates that we've been doing.





I'm looking forward to November, but I think that the holiday hecticness is on it's way! I think I've managing to be gone almost every weekend from November to December, but that's okay! I'm excited about all the places and people I get to go and visit!





We thought we'd create this so we can keep our families and friends up-to-date on our lives and what we've been up to. Since we don't get around to writing too much, maybe this can serve as a way of correspondance between us and everyone.





We'll post more soon!
