Moving and the Derek Webb

I never put an update about Derek Webb. So he was amazing. We both Highly Enjoyed him. He played some old caedmons call songs, some of his older songs and quite a bit off the new album. It talked about the history behind his songs. He was amazing! Also, you can download his new CD for FREE. www.freederekwebb.com . It is enjoyable, It took a while for me to grow on it. But I love it now. It's a cd that raises christian ethics, and he wants to give it away to people for free, so they will talk about the cd.

Mr. Derek Webb also informed us about blood water missions. Blood: Water Mission is a non-profit organization that works to tangibly reduce the impact of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, to promote clean blood and clean water in Africa, and to build equitable, sustainable and personal community links. The mission provides holistic community development in Africa and educates and mobilizes Americans to act. www.bloodwatermissions.com for more info.

Another Update, we have been approve for a new place. So we will be moving in begining on December 1. I really wish everything could magically move into the cabinets and where it belongs. The only bad part about moving to a new place, is the moving itself. But hopefully we manage to rent a Uhaul and get a team of people to get it done fast. And yes Sparticus is coming along with us.

Im still looking for a part time job.No luck so far, but I am hoping for one soon especially because if I dont I will be so bored in january. But I still have a few more possiblities.

That's about it for now..

This is my photo for the rain.

Watkins Park

So on Friday since I dont have class we tried to wake up early and go to watkins park. We woke up, but not as early as we thought were going to. It always ends up like that. But atleast we woke up in the morning and not the afternoon. So after a quick breakfast I loaded up the bikes and the dog and we were off.

Thursday - Naval Acadmey Walk

So Thursday was so nice, we took a walk around downtown annapolis, and the Naval Academy. After we got our coffee at City Dock though.







Later that night we went to hang out with some of our small group buddies at fuddruckers and then played some cranium. The more I play that game, the less I like it because everytime the team I am on loses. Just once I would like to be on the winning team.

And then, after that I took Holly home and adam, best man, from the wedding went and did some urban rappelling at an location that will not be released. It was fun and legal. It was a late night for us. Well and that was thursday!

Beautiful weather!

So the past two days has been amazing here in maryland. We have been outside a lot. Or well I have been. On friday, we went to watkins park, in good ole pg county. It was amazing weather and a great time. This is the photo of that day, actually there are two photos.
This first photo is a cow that sparticus really want to bite for some reason. I think he was protecting holly and I from it. I am guessing this was sparticus view of it.



This awesome photo, is the frog who i had an awesome photo shoot with. He or well she was a great model. I took like 15 other pictures.


More pictures to come later when I have more time to upload.

STAY TUNED!

Nov 9 Photo of the day

I am going to start posting photos of the day, everyday I get online. They wil normally of the day or around the day was taken. It till help me get outside and explore to take more pictures.
This Photo of the day, was actually taken last week in the yard. ENJOY!

a change of space

We have been looking for a new place and may end up moving out soon. We have only live in this place for almost 3.5 months, but due to some other circumstances we want to move out. So we have found a place in bowie, not much father than where holly grew up at. It also isnt much farther where we are living now. Im excited about going to this other place. The kitchen is bigger, there is a separate bedroom, we wont be living underneath a dog that barks nonstop,and also wont be living under a daycare with loud kids. So I am praying that God will hold everything together in His hands as we move one place to another. Im excited about the new place, but I am not excited about moving and packing. We need moving boxes. I think if we cant get people with trucks to move all of our furniture, we may rent a Uhaul truck for a few hours so we can move everything at once, in one day. Hopefully we can also get people to move things in and out too.

So, that is what has been on our minds and hearts lately. It has been difficult moving to a place that cost more than ours now. But we both have faith that God will provide. We also feel we can both operate better as a married couple, because I can be in a totally different room doing homework with lights on as Holly can sleep in the bedroom with the lights off for her busy work days or vice versa.

We are going to see Derek Webb tomorrow night. It should be awesome! Im really excited. He's not my favorite artist, but I do enjoy his music. Holly and I haven't been to a show in a while too. It should be a good time for all. Even though I much rather go to our small married group. But it was cancelled. Holly and I have been loving it so much. Everyone there is really awesome and supportive. I think that has been the biggest blessing for us as a married couple. I would recommend it for any married couple.

That is it for now, Later,
The O'Neill's

Fall hiking trip

So Holly and I have been meaning to hike Old Rag, for quite some time. Its a hike I used to do with Boy Scouts and once in my confirmation group. I enjoyed it then, but then again I wasnt an old man with a bad knee and anke. But we both survived the 8.8 mile hike/rock scramble. It was a chilly day, but it was amazing. Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasures, however the pictures do no justice of what it really was like.
