We have really enjoyed our move to Nashville! What a beautiful state! We moved into a tiny apartment in a beautiful side of Nashville. Every time we come out of our apartment we get to look at the mountains off to one side and then the beautiful swimming pool here .
Mountain View and Pool View
This past Monday it was over 80 - so yes - we went swimming!!!
The Mountain you see up above is located in Edwin Warner Park - an AWESOME park with tons of hiking trails and pic nic areas. The weather has been so beautiful I took the boys for a few pic's...
What a perfect shallow creek with lots of rocks for throwing!!!
Just a beautiful day and we welcomed spring! God never ceases to amaze me with his creation.
My goal is to update on here a couple times a month. There is so much more to update you all on. God is Faithful! God is Good! Keep in touch!
This year has been one of milestones for us! We've seen the Lord do some amazing things in our lives. I am so blessed with an amazing husband who loves the Lord and me with all his heart. Our two beautiful children continue to bring so much joy in our lives each day. You never know what they are going to say next. Watching them grow up and learn and make wise choices just makes my heart smile. Here is our year at a glimpse...

Last week was VBS - and our church used the LifeWay Arctic Edge program. The theme was - "Be Strong - Be Couragagous - Follow Jesus" My boys loved it. It was a very tiring week for everyone! Their time at VBS was action packed and filled with lots to do.
We were walking through the grocery store last Friday and my Andrew (almost 5) says... "Mommy - You need to follow Jesus.... or else you will not know where to go."
I replied - "You are exactly right! - I always need to seek Him and follow His ways."
They learned a bible verse every day as well - and the one that has stuck with them the most is Joshua 1:9 - (kidergarten version) Do not be afraid - God is always with you. Andrew and Austin both have reminded me not to be afraid several times - because God is with me.
It was a great fun week for everyone - but honestly - I'm glad its over! Whew! It sort of gave me a taste of what to expect when Andrew goes to school next year. YIKES - I guess we better get ready.
Our first few weeks of Summer have been great. I just wanted to share some pictures of my kids and what fun we've been having around the bramblett household.
Easter Morning - smelling the Irises (OK so this was not Summer, but wanted to share...)
Andrew Graduates from Cubbies - Awana
As I was cleaning out the garage - we pulled the bouncy thing out and had a grand time playing on it.
Treehouse Fun!
What a blast we had playing - I have more pictures and will post on my next blog -
