The Blog-cation is OVER.....

Sorry to abandon you like that for....several months.

I've learned that to blog, you need something to say. But for the last several months I haven't really been in the mood to talk. You're in luck now, though, because I have so much to say I can hardly contain myself.....or think of a coherent way to convey it. This should be fun!!

Rather than try to bore you with a play-by-play of the last few months, I've decided that a Top Ten of sorts would suffice.

Here goes nothing.....

10. Mr. Bryson developed a special 'gift' and prophesied that puppies would show up so he could play with them. The next morning six puppies showed up in the yard. SIX!! Craziness!

9. The hubs enlisted in the Texas Air National Guard and we are currently waiting to find out his Basic Training date. DRAMA!

8. Temporarily moved to Arkansas while waiting for said Basic date. Was only suppose to be roughly a month.......we are now in our third month here. God Help!!

7. Found out we are expecting #2!!! And remembering that God's timing is perfect.

6. Mr. Bryson completed his first year of AWANA.....so proud of him!

5. Threw up for 3 months straight. You're welcome.

4. Marrying off the hub's brother! He's picked a winner! Precious girl!

3. Confirmed that living far away from my mama is not such a good thing. Lesson learned, can we move on now??

2. Two words....Poison Ivy. That's all the detail you need!

1. We found out #2 is a GIRL!!! Her Highness will be born in September!!


That's the gist of it!
Be back soon....Promise!

New Years Resolutions....

Okay, I'm just going to get it all out of the way now......with a little twist.
Seeing as how every year I say "oh, I'm not going to make any resolutions this year", but then I secretly do (a secret from who, you ask?? YOU!). And then I secretly break them. No, I secretly dig them a grave and secretly bury them! Who knew I was so secretive!


Well, this year I'm pretty sure I can keep all of them or....break some bad habits. Either way, I won't feel like a total loser.

Now for my list:

1. Gain weight
2. Consume as many Diet Cokes in one day as humanly possible
3. Excuse my grumpiness, no matter what day of the month it is
4. Become more of the problem, not the solution, to Global Warming. My hair care alone could be at fault. I'm just saying...
5. Recognize the answers to everyone else's problems but my own
6. Be more bossy
7. Be disgustingly self-involved
8. Worry a little bit more
9. Assume everyone already knows how much I love them and act accordingly
10. Keep my spiritual feet planted firmly in the mud they currently reside in....and not grow a bit
11. Realize I'm the perfect wife and mother
12. Go ahead and write that parenting/marriage book to help all of the other struggling people in the world
13. Stop making lists
14. Never use coupons
15. Understand that kindness is overrated

......And there you have it!
Here's hoping for a big fat failure.....according to my list!

Happy New Year....

It is finished!!!
2008, that is!!!

I don't know about you, but the Weaver household is leaving'08 where it belongs and pressing on towards a blessed and exciting '09.
The holidays for us were filled with tons of family time, fun with friends and watching one little boy be the center of attention at all times. Just as it should be!

We've got several big things going on for our family at the moment, and we would so love and appreciate your prayers! We are eager to see God get into our 'bidness' like we've never known!!

I'll post again soon with hopefully funnier content about Mr. Bryson!!

Happy New Year everyone!!!

What Blog??

Hi. My name is Amber, and I'm a neglectful blogger.
I can't imagine how all two of you who read this blog have gotten through the last few weeks without my mind boggling wisdom. (cough, cough) I apologize from the bottom of my very merry heart!

Now, onto jollier things......

The tree is up, the stockings are hung and the nativity set has almost all of its pieces. Its Christmastime, people!

Here are some recent happenings in the Weaver household:

1. Bryson jumping from one couch to the other, resulting in his first busted nose.
2. His mom freaked out about #1
3. Bryson making up his own versions of classic Christmas songs....(videos to come)
4. Lots of Christmas cookie making and decorating
5. Bryson only coming up with two things he wants for Christmas.....and they are small and inexpensive. Praise Jesus!
6. Family Christmas picture....if you are on my parent's mailing list you will see that Bryson decided to be the family clown. Where did he come from?
7. Me trying to remember all kinds of stuff to blog about.....
8. Forgeting to do #7..........

Happy Holidays! Prepare Him room, people!!

Still Kickin'.....

I've got about a second to post....
Sorry there hasn't been much blogging lately. We've found ourselves very busy....and without internet! Eeeeek!
All is well. We are gearing up for the holidays and family time! We are so excited to spend time with the people we love and don't get to see very often!
We wish all of you a very happy Thanksgiving!

more blogging to come.....I'm almost sure of it!!

Bedtime Prayers

The following is the conversation I just had with the mister while puting him to bed....

Me: Bryson be still and fold your hands so we can say our prayers...
Bryson: (not being still...looking at his hands suspiciously)
Me: Bryson, please be still and fold your hands...
Bryson: (sticking his hand in my face)...I can't say my prayers, there's a booger on my finger.....

Oh what a spiritual household this is!!!

Found another video....

Take it step by step, people!
