Stroup Family

Experiencing God's blessings...

Many things have happened since my last post Rachael and Josh did find a house a cute 3 bedroom 2 bath. They are currently in escrow and could close as early as next week. We are all excited for them. We will be able to have my little granddaughters room all ready for her when she arrives. Rachael is feeling good, she takes after her mother in the fact that she looks like she is ready to deliver and she has almost 3 months left! She is a cutie though.

We also moved my mom here a couple of weeks ago, she moved into a nice gated apartment community about 5 minutes from us. The girls are glad to have their grammy around. She is going to be Tim's assistant at the church that ought to keep her busy. She will also be working on music and some women's ministries. She will be busy like the rest of us.

Meggan has made a big change, she has changed her major to criminal law and is planning to go to CHP academy a year from this fall. You have to be 21 when you graduate academy. She is really excited and is looking forward to the challenge.

The rest of us are good, the church is doing great baptized 9 a couple of weeks ago and seeing people saved. The land deal is moving forward and we are hoping to finish that up in May. We are looking forward to summer time and enjoying time with the family.

Sheridan's 13th birthday

Micah, Sheridan, Abbey and Ashley...

My office redone, new desk. :)

I moved back to the big front office, new carpet and new office furniture gave it a complete new look.

Looking down hallway towards bathrooms...

This is looking down the hallway towards the bathrooms. They look nice too but no pics, sorry.

Looking at the foyer, new tile, new carpet and new light...the 1980's fixture is gone.

Wedding Shopping...

Yesterday we spent the day down in the L.A. area where we bought the bridesmaid dresses and found Rachael a beautiful tiara. We had a lot of fun. Lillian (Josh's mom) his sister Jasmine, Rachael, Meggan, Sheridan and myself. It was a fun girls day! We forgot to take a camera, duh! So we only have the funny moments in our head. The wedding was 11 weeks from yesterday! Yikes! So much to do so little time.
