New year well half way through Jan...sorry!

2008-01-16T17:33:00.000-08:00

Well lets see I feel like not much has been happening besides the normal..."fun stuff" Lets see I just got over a nasty flu bug...I pray I'm over it...along with our Godson Jackson who had a few trips to the ER for dehydration, but he bounced back quickly. P.S Sorry to my mom who came down to hang out and we spent Fri evening in the ER and then Sat I woke up with the flu...I love you mommy! Thanks for taking care of me until Matt got home. O yea and in the mean time my Matt and Jackson's daddy (Matt) we at a youth conference in North Carolina.
Matt left Wed am for a VBS conference in North Carolina and I tell you what..I MISSED MY HUSBAND!!!!!!!! It seemed so long before he returned even though it was a few days (wed am-Sat pm) Ok so it was a long time. If I wouldn't of been loving the no puking laying down position on the cough I might of raced to the door to great him. But he came to me:D Umm life has been in full swing, with lots of work and going to a new church, God has blessed Matt and I with another great church family. We have felt so blessed as God has transitioned us from Immanuel (what an great church family) to we think possibly another church family (another great church family). As I have grown up in church I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to have a church family in Coleman, Mt Pleasant, Immanuel, and possibly a new family.
AS I end I thank God for all the of the things in my life, My husband(our family), our families, our friends, for God for making a way to pay all the bills each month, and for the jobs we have that God provided and for what the future may hold!
God Bless and may you keep God as the center of your life.
Ephesians 1:17-18

Sorry My bad

Ok So I know its been a while since I have last posted sorry, we have a hard time getting an internet connection, but soon that will be subject to changes since At&T is offering a great deal right now for only 24.99/month. Life has been god but busy. I feel like all I do is meet myself comming and going....:D But great news it's ok because at the end of the day I am with my best friend and the man that I love.
Married Life...where do I begin....I LOVE IT!!!!!!! Being married is the best thing ever. Granted we are still waiting to catch a break for a week without something that we had not expected to happen but hey thats ok. We have made it though. Matt, Scrapy and I had a great christmas. On Sunday we had christmas with his mom and then on monday we had christmas with my parents and my sister. THEN...Christmas day we did NOTHING!!!!!!!! We shared christmas together and was pretty lazy all day, Went looking for a place to eat that night(because neither of us wanted to cook) and we found nothing open but Chinese rest, so we went to our fav one in Haslett and took it home and relaxed some more. P.S. Matt and I were able to spend his birthday together and we had a wonderful day in Auburn Hills at the mall and Arcade and then out to dinner(his Choice) it was so nice to spend a great day together.
Work....Well lets see.. work is well a job and it pays the bills(thank-you God)I have been feeling like I should apply at the hospital pharm and see what happens with that. Thats been my ultimate goal, however I am hesitant to do this because my hours are so great with Pharm Plus. M-F 8:30am-6pm and 1 Sat a month 9am-3pm so its kinda a hard call. So please pray for me as I find out were God wants me to be right now. Also I have found online a cert that I would love to study for and try to pass Its for an Ob Tech but the money is a little problem as well as the time to study. So thats just a little about what maybe I should be doing.
Well We are watching Jackson Fri and Sat and since today is Sat I hear Matt and Jackson sturring from there nap so until next time. God Bless
Love, Kadee Kidd (Matt Kidd's Wife)

I am MRS. Kidd married to my best friend!!!

2007-10-25T16:15:00.000-07:00

As I relize it has been a long time since I have posted on her I am now posting and I will always be posting as Mrs. Kidd, wife to my best friend, Mr Kidd. Wow its been a while and things have been crazy busy. Matt is giving everyone the long story and I am going to make it short and sweet!!! Oct 13, 2007 was the best day ever look for pics soon but for now, its was amazing I remember bits and pieces of the day and there will always be memories that take my breath away, like seeing Matt, having my daddy walk me down the aisle, saying my vows to Matt and looking into his eyes, dancing with Matt and knowing I get to have many forever moments with him. I know it was the greatest day of my life, but the one thing that as I sit here I can tell you with tears streaming down my cheecks is my dance with my daddy!!! This besides marring my best friend was the next greatest moment of my life and it will always be. As I sit and think about everything that has brought me thus far, I know that I have to of the greatest men in my life, my husband and my daddy, these two men I know will always be there for me and always protect me. For that I am forever greatful!! For those of you that were at the wedding I hope you had a great time and that you enjoyed the time. I am not really sure what else to say but thank you to my parents for such a great day and thank you to all of you that were able to share our day!!
Much love,
Kadee Kidd...wife to Matt Kidd

Busy busy busy!

2007-09-06T07:36:00.000-07:00

O boy where do I start...Umm Matt and I have a house now..I am so excited as we start to make a few changes and bring a few things up tp "code" according to the one lady. Please be praying that in talking to her I can be an effective witness for christ in dealing with her...I know that it will be a trying time but that God will prevail like he ALWAYS does. Umm Matts mom bought a town house and we have spent lots of time helping her move out and into her new place. She has lovingly let us have her old place..THANKS MOM WE LOVE YOU!!! Its hard to believe that we are already in Sept but at the same time, I can't wait for Oct to get here, but there is lots to do and the month is already planned with stuff to get done before the wedding. My how I wish Matt and I were on our cruise out in the middle of the water with just time to relax and spend a wonderful time together. But there is just so much to do in the mean time. Umm Yesterday(wed) I had an interview in Lansing with a Pharmacy through Sparrow, definatly a God thing so I know that whatever he wants for me he will put me right in the middle. So if this is the right job I pray that thats where God puts me. God really hit home for me last night as I got off work and I came home and was looking around on myspace. Its hard for me to really get involve with something when I am so far away. So for me I try to keep in contact with the youth and try to see how things are going for them. Since I have had this interview all I have been thinking is how hard its going to be to tell me boss if the job was offered to me. Last night God slapped me in the face and told me that just because I might get a job in lansing, that does not mean that, that is the job he has for me...meaning that the Job that he places me with in the world is just for Matt and I to get by and that the job that he also has for me is to be with the youth and those girls that need to have someone close by and to really be there close by and now have to drive the 45 min between me and them. There was something that Matt and Jill Cobb did after they moved into there housing complex. I can still remember the day exactly I was walking up to see and hang out with Jill and she was pregnant with Jackson and she had here coat on and was walking around with plates full of cookies as well as a little note that had been placed on top of them that told about there family and she was telling people about there family and that they had moved and she was just getting to know her neighbors. This to me was the coolest thing that I had ever witness and I knew that I wanted to do that when I moved into my new home with my husband one day, now keep in mind I had been dating Matt for over a year but this was in Nov and Matt and I did not get engaged until March 1st so this was something that I knew one day I would do little did I know its going to be around the sametime, just a year later. My God is so Good to know everything that he has planned for us, also be thinging about your job here that God has placed you with in the world of buiness, are just being a witness as well as helping build his kingdom in heaven? Lots of love and I'm sure more posts to come...JESUS LOVES YOU!

2007-04-27T18:31:00.000-07:00

I have never been more excited to become the Mrs. Matt Kidd! Matt and I were talking today and we both are just completely excited about getting married! With 5 months and a half months left to go, I just don't feel like it will be here soon enough! I know everyone including Matt tells me that its going to be go so fast expecially the summer for both Matt and myself, however I am looking forward to October 13, 2007! I have never felt so blessed to have met Matt and to also have the honor of one day calling him my husband! God has blessed me to have such an amazing man of God to some day soon be called the head of my household. I feel like God has blessed me in so many ways to also have an amazing man of God to have led me in growing up in my household like my dad! My dad has showed me what a man of God is in a family. My mom has showed me the wife that I want to be for my husband! Together my parents make such an amazing team for christ! I can hardley wait for Matt and I to become that team! With the many trials and hurdles that have come in the path I have seen people stick together as a family to over come even the smallest hurdle! God has given me the HOTTEST, GODLY man that I have ever met to marry! As I sit here and stare at my beautiful ring I can hardley believe when I was a little girl waiting fot this one day to come and now its here!!! Everyday that I get up and go to work, church, and whatever is on my agenda for the day, I grow to love Matt more than the day before! May God bless you all as you have a great weekend! Enjoy the great weather to come I know I will!!! Love, Kadee

Hey I just wanted to post quickly. Life is going ok I had a pretty rough week this past week but God brought me through. I'm not sure God's done with everything this week but its in his plan. On a plus note I love my job its so great and the people are wonderful. I have really enjoyed being there and getting closer to a few of my coworkers. I am expecially close to one of the ladies I call grandma,sometimes, I said yes mamam, and she told me she was to young to be called that and then we figured out she could be my grandma so the rest is history. They all told me they like having me around its like having a kid at home again. I thank God for this opportunity to have this great job. Matt is doing well just pretty busy. I got my flowers decided this week I will be getting them at Evans another perk to working there I get a great deal on them. Well I hope you all have a great week.
Love, Kadee

2006-12-24T18:42:00.000-08:00

So it has been a while since my last post and a lot has happened. My job is still my job and I thank God for it and the money that it brings in to pay the bills and helps me live. Umm this Christmas season has been very difficult for many reason and all of them revolve around family. My grandma passes away on Dec 16 and we layed her it rest next to my grandpa Dec 23. This was very difficult as many can imagine. I have had a few people ask how things are going and then they don't really seem to care about my answer. I'm not sure if its the o I just wanted to ask but then really don't want to stand around and listen or I just don't have time. I have found myself doing that few times and I have to remind myself that maybe its something that is very important to them and they need someone to listen. How many times do you say Hi when passing someone and then say how are you but keep walking. And how many of us respong with I'm fine or good and really your just not doing that well. I challege every person to stop and take a breath and just relax this holiday season. And if you don't how someones doing then don't bother to ask. Because if you can't give that person a few minutes of your time then just say hi and walk on by. May God Bless and keep you all close this holiday season and remember the true reason for the season. I was able to go and see the Nativity Story with a few friends on Sat night and God really showed me the true meaning of Christmas. ~Always Kadee

2006-11-02T07:15:00.000-08:00

I have a turtle, my turtle does not have a name however so if you have some please let me know and then can be in the running. Over a few struggles God has kept me strong and been faithful in everything. Yesterday was my day off and Jill Cobb and I got together for a fun day filled with lunch, shopping, and then pet store. I had such a great time with her. Shes pregnant and I am excited for her and Matt as the time gets closer her expected due date is Feb 7 and shes in the downhill slide. I hope this finds you all well and good and my God keep it that way.
Kadee

Day off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2006-10-20T15:37:00.000-07:00

Well its official I have moved and I am all unpacked and setted in my new house. I have yet to decide how I feel about this being my new home and being with out a shower. We moved in on Friday and were told that there was a few plambing problems and that the plumber would be out to fix things for us. However after alot of run around and 5 days later we have been told that the house has no water pressure and that it will be fixed on Tuesday and that was the earliest they could get to it, in the mean time when you flush the toilet and then turn on the faucet to wash your hands you hardly have any water. When you do a load of laundry you have no water upstair all you hear is air when you turn on a faucet. So Jaime and I are thrilled... NOT!!!!! O well I have a day off today and its quiet nice except the fact that my fish died and a few people find it funny. Just a note I have had my fish for a while and itgs no different that a dog or a cat they are still a pet. Then the neighbors cat keeps fighting with another cat and has now managed to get itself stguck in a tree. O well I guess I'm not calling the fire dept and paying that bill to get the cat out of the tree it can climb down itself.
On a different note the Hess family is making great progress Autumn is doing so well please continue to pray that she will keep getting stronger and that her kidneys will keep functioning like there suppose to and that theres no damage. She is beautiful and we all can't wait to meet her. My parents had the pleasure and seeing her and touching her on there way back from Tennessee. They took a nice long weekend away for there 27th wedding anniversary. Go Mom and Dad!!!! I am so thankful for being raised in a christian home. God has truley blessed me. Please continue for me and my family as we are having a few family problems. Keep praying that the truth be revealed no matter how hard it is to endure. With Christ anything is possible and I know that he has a plan for all of this. May God Bless you and your family. P.S. I am posting a few pics of my house and then of my hot boyfriend and myself.
Always Kadee

As I sit down to write you all and let you know about life. There are things that are exciting and things that need lots of prayer. A little exciting thing is that I will be moving in 9 days. It will be nice to experience life out on my own. I am moving to Alma with a friend of mine and we will be living there for a year. My how the time has flown by, its almost been a year since I started working at Meijer. Keep praying for the job that God has for me wether its Meijer or somewhere else. Where ever God wants me to be is where I will be. Please be praying still for my family, as well as for the Hess Family. They were blessed in life to have had a little baby girl, she is a month early and her little body is fighting for life. She is however having a few problems, her liver, bladder, and her kidneys are failing to work. They have her on around the clock dialis, and her lungs are starting and stopping on working. She was breathing on her own and then she started stopping in the middle of the night, so she has now been placed back on the ventilator. If you would like to see pics and hear about her progress you can log on the familys website. www.hessfam.blogspot.com Take care Kadee

Funny Joke...

2006-09-14T14:38:00.000-07:00

Computer Skills

Jesus and Satan were having an on-going argument
About who was better on the computer. They had
Been going at it for days, and frankly God was
Tired of hearing all the bickering.

Finally fed up, God said, "THAT'S IT! I have had
Enough. I am going to set up a test that will run for
Two hours, and from those results, I will judge who
Does the better job."

So Satan and Jesus sat down at the keyboards
And typed away.

They moused.
They faxed.
They e-mailed.
They e-mailed with attachments.
They downloaded.
They did spreadsheets!
They wrote reports.
They created labels and cards.
They created charts and graphs.
They did some genealogy reports.
They did every job known to man.

Jesus worked with heavenly efficiency and
Satan was faster than hell.

Then, ten minutes before their time was up,
Lightning suddenly flashed across the
Sky, thunder rolled, rain poured, and, of course,
The power went off.

Satan stared at his blank screen and
Screamed every curse word known in the
Underworld. Jesus just sighed.

Finally the electricity came back on, and
Each of them restarted their computers.
Satan started searching frantically, screaming:
"It's gone! It's all GONE! "I lost everything
When the power went out!"

Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all
Of his files from the past two hours
Of work. Satan observed this and became irate.

"Wait!" he screamed. "That's not fair, He cheated!
How come he has all his work
And I don't have any?"

God just shrugged and said,
JESUS SAVES

(You knew that was coming!)
Enjoy! Kadee

The great mouse adventure.....

2006-09-11T18:19:00.000-07:00

Well in a blink of an eye the weekend is over. I had a fun weekend with Matt comming up on Friday, the youth rally in Jackson and Sat, and The Great Wolf Lodge in Traverse City with my hot boyfriend and my cool family. We had the honor of spending alot of time in the car but we had a great time and made the most of a weekend away. If you have never been to Great Wolf Lodge I highley recommend you go at least once, even as adults your all still a kid at heart, besides I can't remember a time I have laughed as hard as I did on Sun.
So I am getting ready to post a quick note to everyone and all of a sudden I hear my mom yelled for me to come quick. As I look out the closed screen door to the garage, I see the cat is found herself a mouse to play with, however my mo was going to to the garage she did not turn and the light and she thought she stepped on the cats tail when she really stepped on the mouse. I imagine this was the brave one and had to take the mouse outside and toss it over the neighnors fence. I feel kinda bad for the mouse who is injured and will probably not make it thru the night. O well a nother adventure in the Beaver Family. Tke care for now and watch out for mice.
~Baby Beaver

Wow its been quite the year. ITs offical Matt and I have been dating for over a year. It's been a great year, we have done so many things together and I will treasure everyone of them, wether it was just hanging around the house doing nothing for a day or driving to Ludington randomly one afternoon. Its been great we had a chance to go away on Friday together and just to spend quality us time. We went down to South Haven, and see alot of old people and a lot of antiques and then we left looking for something more modern. We went to Benton Harbor and did a little shopping only for neither of us to buy anything and just drove around and had a great time. God has really blessed me with Godly man that I can grow closer to him because of Matt. He's been there in my time of need to share lots of laughs and just a few tears with in any moment of need that comes our way. He's the love of my life , beside God and Family of course, and I feel so honored to have him in my life.
On another note work is going better than what it was and please keep praying for my family. Matt and I are going to a youth rally sat and then up to traverse city to hang out with the family at Great Wolfe Lodge for the day, and then steak for dinner, yummy yummy. Well I hope you all had a great Labor day. May God Bless and Keep you safe until the day we all go home to glory. ~Kd

The devils knows right where to kick ya...

2006-08-27T14:45:00.000-07:00

SO it has been nothing but an awful week for me and my family and I predicted a huge storm to come moving in this week. Please be praying for me and my family this week it is going to be a harder week than last week. Please pray for god's will to shine through. Work as been hard and it seems like the devil likes to kick hard when your already down, so please pray for my attitude to make sure its in check before going to work. On a lighter side Jaime is finally home from vacation and Matt and I are having a day away on Friday. We have almost been dating for a year its hard to believe that we have been together for that long, its been a great year! Thats all for now

Ever Stop to think...

2006-08-21T17:57:00.000-07:00

Has someone ever told you that they will see you in hell and it hits you like a ton of bricks and makes you wonder how you are living your life, as well as then later that day your temper and the devil got the best of you. How has your day been? I have had a horibble Monday... I hope you are having a better week than me. Life is life I guess. Matt had a great sermon on sunday night and in talking to my mom it is practically the same sermon that my parents heard sunday morning by Pastor Dave. It seems to be quiet the trend. O well thats all for now.

This was a little bit of the water of where we were on vacation

So its been a while... how are ya?

2006-08-09T12:14:00.000-07:00

Hey all its been almost a month since I last was able to grab few minutes to post and let ya ll know how things are going. Things are going faster than I would like but I like being busy so thats good. Lets see the last time I talked to everyone I was getting ready to go on vacation with Matt and his mom. Wow that seems so long ago, but yes it as come and gone and we all had a great time, my parents evern came and hung out with us for a little while. We went up to Mackinaw Island as well as went to the beach and did alot of diving, It was awesome it took me a little while to get use to breathing through my mouth but I did it. So vacation seemed so short lived, but was so great. Since then I have made it through VBS, lots of work, some tough family times and a funeral. Please be praying for all the kids that made commitments while at VBS I had a great time with the kids and just seeing there child like faith it was so amazing. Also please pray for Matt and his family as his uncle pasted away, it is so hard to lose someone close to you so be praying for them. Also I have some decisions to make reguarding any new roads that God has for me. Pray for my sister, we thought she was going to have to have surgery and now she is not going to have surgery and she is having more tests done tomorrow. So please pray for the dr's as they decide whats going on with her. Work is work I guess so far so good on getting some of the answers that I need to help me make some choices in my life. God will work it all out I know he will. O well It think I got you pretty much all up to speed. So I will know just post some pics!!!!:D Later... and Good Game!

The middle of July did I miss a few days....

2006-07-12T18:27:00.000-07:00

Howdy all. How goes it? Things kinda feel like they are going a little slower than last week at least. However as many of you know youth camp is now over and its was crazy busy. So now I just have one thing to do for this week and that is work. Its kind of feels alittle on the slow side. O well, camp was fun I had a great time getting to know some of the youth better as well as gaining their trust in telling me things that was keeping them from there relationship with Jesus Christ. Over the course of the week I seen alot of brokeness as the week progressed and as Jesus was knocking on hearts door. It was so amazing and I am so glad that I still keep in contact with some of them. Its amazing how God works in all situations no matter what the problem or fear.
I soon get to take a few days off for vacation with Matt and his mom. We are going back up to the same place we went last year and it will be a nice break from the everyday things. I will be returning to work on Wed and we will be leaving on Sat, Matt and his mom with be staying out the rest of the week. My how time fly's I was just talking with one of my pharmacists the other day and the question was were we you a year ago. GOd has definalty taken me down many roads to get to where I am at at this point in my life. Last year I was in Orlando, Fl getting a team ready to go with me to Panama City, Panama. Wow to think that I have been there into my second job and dating an amazing man of God just is so great to see how much God has moved me and made changes in my life. Hes so amazing..... Well just a note to self "Where were you a year ago and what have you come through to get where you are today?" In His Steps, Kadee

A great day off...indeed it was!!!!!:D

2006-06-28T17:54:00.000-07:00

So today was my day off and let me tell you it was great! I slept in till 11:15 and was lazy and layed in bed watching TV for a while. Then I got up got ready and went into town where I had my A/C in my car recharged and let me tell you, its nice and cool now. That only took a few minutes. Then I came home watched a movie, started to mow the lawn and in the middle of doing that it started to rain and I got wet so I decided since I was already wet to keep mowing. Praise the Lord it stopped raining and the sun came out I was almost dry and almost done and it started to pour, so now I am completely soaked and finished. Then came inside dryed off got some dry clothes on and went out in the garage where I vacummed out my car. Then I went out to dinner with my sister, we ate at Big Boy. Then I came home and I have been surfing the internet for a while and now I am talking to you. It was a nice day for some rest.
On the bad side of things I have to go back to work tomorrow. Its not that I'm dreading it I love my job its just that I have to go that makes it kinda rough. O well on Sat Matt is comming up and I am excited to see him, my mom is really excited because she gets to have some Scrapy bonding time this comming week while Matt and I are at camp. She just loves it when Scrapy comes to stay at the house for a while. However she is praying against any thunderstorms that way she won't have to sleep in my room with him. O well I guess you have to take the good and the bad. Well I hope you are having a great Wed and that your week is going well. Have a great week, Later Gater..... Kadee

A nice day off...I hope.

2006-06-27T19:29:00.000-07:00

Well tomorrow is Wed and I get a day off work, which is kind of a change of pace for me. No worries though I love my job its just nice for a break. I have told them all at work that my ear is available for moral support only I will not be making a trip to work tomorrow. Great news my grandma just got home from Virgina so I will be making a trip over to see her sometime soon. I am happy to have her back, she remind me of my grandpa, yes I know I don't need someone to remind me but its still nice to remember the great times with her close by, security I guess.
I offically posted my car for sale at one of those online/car magazines. So hopefully it will see sooner than later. If anyone would like to buy my car or knows someone that would like to buy it please let me know. Its a sharp looking car and I love it but I need to sell it, for a couple reasons.
Different change in subject, ever feel like you have lots of people around to love you but you still don't feel loved. Thats my stuggle this week, God is showing my that its great to have lots of people love you but understanding his love is a totally different story. I am learning about myself as well as about Christ's love this week. Its hard to explain but God has shown me alot through pray this week.
I sent 2 resumes to the two companies that are interested in me, I hope to hear back sometime soon. But its all in God's plan and where he wants me. Well I hope God is teaching you all something this week and that you get the chance to share it with someone else.
P.S. Camp is just around the corner... please pray for everyone involved.

Vacation is so short lived.....

2006-06-26T17:23:00.000-07:00

So I am back from Cedar Point, Jaime and I had a great time riding all the rides that we thought looked like fun. I have to say the Dragster was pretty sweet, You got from 0-120mph in 4 sec and you go straight up over and down with a twist. It was my most feared ride and I almost passed out on Jaime, but we rode it with no problems. However when we first arrived we jumped right in line for that one and they had to shut it down due to weather because it would take off but then get to the top and come back down backwards. I was thinking that might not be a ride I wanted to get on but Jaime talked me into it and she was my support. She told me she would offer me her hand, and then she informed me she was afraid I would break it. I told her no thanks I thought I might break it. :D However we plan to go again and this time I might just have to ride in the front row. You can go check out this and the other rides I went on at www.cedarpoint.com We left really early and finally found a hotel late at night about 11is and ordered Pizza and I ate one slice and I was falling asleep doing that so I fell asleep and woke up when the alarm went off at 10:30am so we could check out at 11am. We had a great time comming back just taking out time getting there. We stopped in Lansing and had lunch with Matt, a few of his youth, and one of the youths mom. I was fun we ate and Jonny Rockets and watched them dance and we laughed it was a blast. However Matt and his youth were trying to recover from a lockin that had friday night at the church, they were suppose to go camping but the mosquitos drove them back home.
Other than that not much has been happening. I will be goin up to youth camp this next week to be with Matt and his youth as well as some other youth groups. I have to work a couple days but praise the lord he has worked out alot of the details. Just please be praying for the youth and staff as the week begins. Well talk to ya all later. May God Bless you at the start of a new week.

My hot boyfriend!!!!!!

2006-06-21T18:18:00.000-07:00

I thought this was a great title to have of this post because after all I am dating the great guy I have ever met and he is perfect for me. I have caught myself getting more frustrated at work than normal, and when Matt asks about my day and how work is going... I tend to give him a frustrated version, however he kindly reminds me of how Godly everything that come out of my mouth sounds so great and Godly, however then I have to go check my attitude and ask for God's forgiveness to be able to have a better attitude for the rest of my day. Its be quiet the stretch and grow experience over the last week or 2... I guess thats why God places certain people in out lives for a reason.
On a different note... Jaime and I are leaving for Cedar Point at life 4:30am Friday morning, we are going to have fun riding rides and just hanging out with one another. We will be spending a night or 2 down there. I'm excited it should be fun. Other than that not much else has been happening. I had a job interview the other day for a Tech job around the Lansing area and after I met and talked with the guy, I am being looked at for 2 jobs and praying for God's will to happen. I have to give him a couple resumes with different detailing on them for each job and then he would like to present me to both companies. Just pray that all goes according to God's plan and his will for my life. Other than that work is work and life is still life. God bless you all

2006-06-06T18:53:00.000-07:00

Just an amazing piece of God's creation.

Nothin new in general.....

2006-06-06T18:30:00.000-07:00

So not to much is new in life... I took a test drive today in a Ford Escape. It was a 2006 a little newer than what I wanted. It was so great.... I loved it... Other than that not to much just working 40 hours plus a little over time this week... next week my hours drop a little but I am still having a decent time at work. I have been trying to be extra friendly to the customers, expecially the ones that drive me crazy... I'm trying to show christ love more and more as somedays are better than others. Other than that I am really enjoying nature and the marvel of how God created it. It just puts me in awwww as I look at his hand in every different flower that is so beautiful. I'm not to sure in where my life is headed... I really want to stay where I am right now because I am doing well and I love some of my coworkers, however I have been thinking about some type of change. I have applyed for a pharmacy job and I am praying that if its God's will I will be happy either way. I know I will be its just a change I'm not sure I'm ready to make yet, but God's timing is so different from my own, I just remind myself of Jeremiah 29:11 I know so many people who use it as a living verse and I am the same way. I love that God knows everything before we can even have any idea. Well I hope you have a great Godly week and that you are the light of the world for Jesus Christ.

My mom thinks that Bitz and Scrapy will be the best of friends the week after July 4th, since Matt and I will be gone for youth camp...Matt says he'll be looking to the east! I'm with him.....

2006-06-02T19:17:00.000-07:00

Also pray for scrapy he hasn't been feeling good....

its June!!!!!!

2006-06-02T18:53:00.000-07:00

Its hard to believe another month has passed by so fast, remember when we were kids that we were always wishing for something and time passed what seemed to be forever and now that we are getting older time is flying by. Before I forget please pray for Matt on tomorrow (last test for a few months), I know he will do great, just like all the other tests. Went and seen a new baby boy tonight, Matthew Ryan is his name 7lbs 7ou, 18 inches long, mom Ashley and him are doing great, of course so is dad Todd, Congrats!!! Of course work is still work and will always be work, thank goodness for a job though!!!! Get to go see Matt the hottie boyfriend this weekend, that will always bring a big smile to my face. My home church is having a senior pastor candiate coming this sunday, please pray for them as decisions are made on both sides. God is so kewl, he just love us even when we aren't loveable, we have freedom in Christ , (Gal 5:1, 13), we are called not to be sinful but to serve one another in love. Remember those wrist things everyone used to wear, Frog, WWJD, etc, its sad that we have to wear something around our wrist to remind us how to act to our family, friends, coworkers, etc. I know I am just as guilty as the next but hopefully thru God's mercy and grace I will improve with time. Have a great weekend, have fun, don't forget church on sunday. Always~Kadee

2006-05-25T16:33:00.000-07:00

There's not much else going on for me just loving the fact that I passed. I am working this weekend as well as Monday. So I hope you all have a great Memorial weekend. Be safe and smart.
As I figure out how the summer is going to go, Matt and I either have something going on together or apart from now until the end of July, at least every weekend so the summer is kicking off and is going to be jammed packed. Matt is keeping me busy helping out with youth camp and VBS. He is keeping himself just as busy as I am and things are going great with him. Just keep praying for him as he meets with a few people this summer from greek ministry. Kepp God 1st and always trust in him with everything!!!!!

This is in the Grand Ol Opery Hotel its awesome there over 9 acres of this kind of stuff.

May already.....

2006-05-14T19:28:00.000-07:00

Wow I can hardly believe that its the middle of May! My vacation is over and it came as quick as it went. It almost seemed to short but then now I can hardly believe how I feel like my life has begun to pass me by. I feel like I have seen things that will change my life and they way I think for a while. I close friend of my family has passed away and still seeing his wife and children at church still tears away at my heart. Some of the stories I have heard about him and the things that he has done just amazes me and shows me how great of a man he truly was. As I sit here and think about him as tears begin to run down my cheeks it makes me think about the plan that God has for me and how I am living it right now. What does my future hold as I am 21 years old and I'm not sure all of his plan for me. I know that I will never know all of what he hs but as he reveals it to me piece by piece I am still shocked by the things that I can do with everything that I have been given. As I still think about Gods plan the verse that I keep thinking about is Jeremiah 29:11 " For I know the plans for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." He know and to me thats all good and I love the fact that when I need to know I will be the first one that he tells.
My vacation was great minus a few things that happened, I lost my drivers lisence, and had to have new breaks put on my car as soon as I arrived in Lansing but other than that and still sleep deprived it went well. Pics are posted. P.S. Happy Mother's Day to all moms but most of all my mom , I would not be at places in my life that I am right now if it was not for both my parents buy expecially my mom. I could not give a better description of someone who has been there as mom, wife, and loving friend than my mom. She makes you laugh, lets you cry, cries with you, and just is there whenever you call. I love you mom and I can't image a day without you in my life, thanks for always being there and for showing my what a Godly marriage looks like as well as a best friend! I love you ~Me

2006-05-01T17:13:00.000-07:00

Matt and I ...... my mom said something funny!

Long time no Posts!!!!!

2006-05-01T16:55:00.000-07:00

Well lets see where do I begin.... Life has been good somethings have happened since I last updated you all on my life. Umm I have been working 40 hours a week and its been good but this is my 7th day in a row that I have worked I will be working till Thur at 2pm and then I am off for a couple of days. I get to fly down to Fl with Miranda to see my Stacie who then we are driving back to MI, she has been down there for school and I am excited to see her. We are going to stop several different places on the way back to visit and hang out one of them being Nashville, TN. :D I should be a fun trip. I have also been car shopping for a new car...one with better gas milage... if you see one let me now. so yea umm other than that no much has happened.. o side note if you think about it pray for me and the girls to have safe travels there and back. O and another prayer request, I dear friend of mine and my families past away this past Thur and they layed him to rest. His death was quiet the shock and so just pray for the families. He has 3 grandchildren one of them being born 2 days before his death, and he has two more on the way. He is home with Jesus now and its a comfort to every one here back on earth that we will someday see him again. Other than that things are still moving along my small group ended last week and we planted sunflowers so remind us that Jesus is the son corny I know but it is still awesome. My bones are still recovering from 2 hrs of Ultimate Frisbee last Thur which I was crashed into by a couple of people that were just a little bit bigger than me so as you probably know... I lost! But it was a fun last time. Things with Matt and I are going well. We took a small road trip a little bit ago to Ludington and we had a fun day just hanging out and it was a little cold on the walk to the big light house but we had a great drive 1 1/2 hrs each way. We walked around the town and just had fun it was great! Well that it for now I will post more after my trip to Fl and I'm sure pics will be included. Just food for thought.... are you living your life to the fullest? God Bless! ~Kadee

2006-03-25T19:49:00.001-08:00

The Band

2006-03-25T19:49:00.000-08:00

Youth excited about the concert!

Things I think are still the same.....

2006-03-23T17:32:00.000-08:00

I think that not much has changed since the last time I updated the website. Umm I officially have bought my plane ticket for Fl. I will be flying down to Fl with Miranda to pick up Stacie and we are going to have a great time on the way home, stopping at various different location. Life has been pretty busy with work and his house and Matt. Work is the same I am working at finishing up my tests so I can take my exam sooner than later. His House is almost done with another semester. That means that things will be starting to wrap up for the summer. We are starting a new thing in the next couple of weeks its called 3-2-1 and it will be where we are going to be having 2 different services at the same time one at the church and one at Pierce hall. Then my life group is helping out with hot dogs On april 9th so that goes from 9:30 at night to 2am. Its where we give out free hot dogs to anyone that wants them as well as do a little witnessing at the same time. Matt is doing well, he is keeping himself just as busy as myself if not more busy. He spoke this past weekend at a youth rally and did a great job (pics to come) there was a band and pizza and fellowship which was fun. Its hard to believe that its March 23 already my how the time flies. I am house sitting this weekend for a couple that has a cat(cheese it) and a dog(max) they are both very well behaved which makes thing really easy and fun to deal with. Next weekend I am house sitting for a week for a dog (hobbie) and I'm not sure the cats name... I will be here Thur-Sun and then for the next house its a fri-fri. So I will be busy as well as working and other fun stuff. Well may God Bless you in all you do Later Gater

2006-01-09T19:21:00.000-08:00

I'm updating my blog... nothing new just 21 and working! How is life going with everyone? Anyone have any really good new years resolutions? On a new note my small group just started and things are finally starting to slow down! Matt is back from his 2 weeks of being gone and things went pretty well for him. I had Scrapy for 2 weeks and that was fun, I have offically decided I am not sure if my parents can handle having a dog because they might over feed it....scrapy gained 3 pounds from hangin out with us... my mom claim its all muscle lol who really knows;) Well thats all for now, I'm going to try to add pictures of my hot boyfriend and his cute dog with me Christmas eve sometime this week, God Bless!

So life has been busy and finally things are not so busy and they might start to slow down and maybe just maybe return to normal. Matt preached jan 1st morning and he did an amazing job I was really impressed with his sermon and God really spoke though him it was awesome. Other than that things are going well just really busy and everything. On a older note I am excited I will be turning 21 on tues so that just means my parents are getting older. Hopefully if you made any new years resolutions you will be able to meet and keep them. May God Bless and keep you this new year!
Love, Kadee

Merry Christmas to all!

Merry Christmas I pray that everyone is enjoying there holiday and that God is blessing you this christmas year. Things have been pretty crazy for me and I am ready to have a nice quiet christmas holiday which won't be happening this year. Matt surprised me today by telling em he was comming on Sunday and acually showed up today, he was in with my mom. He also to my delight and his loving hearted dismay brought me Scrapy for the holidays since he will be gone off and on for about 2 weeks. Scrapy has already had moments with Bitz. Anna came up for about6 days which was great to see here over the christmas break, of course my life was busy with work and a friend of mine from school passed away so I had a funeral to go to on Monday, please pray for the family. Other than that I have been keeping myself busy with work and getting ready for Christmas! To my dismay and pleasure this time of the year will not slow down until about Jan 15th. I have things planned every weekend until the 15th of Jan. Of course my dads b-day(dec 31) then of course New Years eve and New Years day. Matt is preaching on New Years Day and then my birthday is on Jan 3 which Noelle has informed me that we will be having a big party for.... we shall see...! O well things just keeping comming and comming, May the Lord bless you and your family this holiday season! And a special shout out to Jamie Lee who is getting married I believe May 6. Congrats to Jamie Lee and Ryan!!!!!!

Tis the season!

So today I went to Houghton Lake to spend quality time with my mom and to pick up a few things at Walmart as well as look for a frame for a picture of mine. Inspite of the roads and lots of people shopping it was fun. Of course if you know me and my mom we always seem to find lots of fun things to do and talk about. Who can believe that in 2 weeks it will be Christmas Day! Its hard to believe. I have great news all the way around, Anna flies in on Thur so less than a week and I get to see her!!!!!!! I can't wait its going to be so great to see her, I will also get to see more of Matt because of the holidays and Anna comming in. Props to Matt ahead of time for going with me to the airport to pick up and drop off. Watch out of people who like to steal gas caps mine was stolen the other night when I was at work. I have since bought a new one. I only want to know why someone would steal a gas cap, it was attached to my car!!! O well I guess someone really wanted my gas cap. I had my work christmas party last night which was fun but I was more tired and Matt and I left so we could both go our seperate ways and go to bed. I hope everyone has an awesome Christmas and a Happy New Year! May you remember the true holiday as well as enjoy it with friends family and loved ones. May God Bless and Keep you safe! P.S. To the person(Matt) that has taken my comforter into custody.... I will get it back!:D

Jenny called the other day and I miss her so much, Jenny this is the picture I told you about... do you want it?

Tickets Stink o and cost a lot of money.....

2005-11-29T18:34:00.000-08:00

So as the title states I have recieved my 2nd ticket of my life. I was leaving Lansing heading back up to work in Mt. Pleasant. However to my dismay the officer was more than willing to hand my over a ticket for 10mph over the speed limit. I was in a 45mph zone and I thought the speed limit was 55mph so make sure you look at every sign on the side of the road that you pass. Moral of the story don't speed... you always get caught sometime. Other than that work has been going pretty well, there is a lady that I work with that God is going to use to teach my his love, grace and patience. She started a couple weeks after I had started and it makes me pray before everyday starts. Things are going to be picking up in the next weeks. Anna flies in 2 weeks from this Thur and I am very excited to see her, Matts birthday is comming up and we are going out to dinner with his mom and cousin, Jesus' birthday is right around the corner, I hope you all have your christmas shopping done, I know I just started today and I have a long ways to go. O well anyways in my small group we talked about Matt 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers for they will be called the sons of God. I know in my life I have not been someone that has tried to be a peacemaker or even cared if I was a peacemaker. How many times do we get sucked into the middle of an argument and end up taking a side even though you only have heard one side. I know I am guilty when a friend calls I end up taking there side not matter if they are right or wrong. Maybe instead of jumping on one side or another we should be someone to help end the argument or just stay out of it all together. I want to be a peacemaker, for I am a daughter of God and this is what God calls us to be is Peacemakers. Are you a peacemaker? Love and God Bless on this holiday season!

Things...

2005-11-13T19:03:00.000-08:00

Things have been happening and have been progressing really well. I have started my job training and it has been easy in some ways and difficult in others. I will have to know 100 brand name medications and then 100 generic name medications as well as lots of abbr. I will be taking quizzes every week and then at the end of my 12 weeks I will have an exam that I will have to take. As for the daycare I have officially quit and I will be only working at Meijer now. Other than that things are going well with everything else, my small group is still growing and things are still going well, we have just had an outing where we bought stuff to do the Operation Christmas Child Boxes. This was exciting to be involved with, and the girls really enjoyed it. Matt is keeping himself busy as well with taking recert classes for the fire department, greek ministry, and his youth group as well as a little preaching on Sunday nights. He will be preaching next Sunday(Nov 20) Then next couple months are going to continue to get busy with all of the upcoming holidays, my sister birthday(Nov 21), Thanksgiving(24), my Christmas party(Dec 10), Matts birthday(Dec 19), Christmas(25), Anna comes(?), my dads birthday(Dec 31), New Years(Jan 1), My birthday(Jan 3) and then things take a break for a little while and everyone can breath after the holidays. Other than that God has been blessing me in many ways with a new job with growing potential, a new car, my small group, Matt, and just my family to back me on whatever path I have been walking. * Please be praying for some changes that will be taken place in the church I was raised in. Pray for wisdom guidance and understanding for everyone. Until next time God Bless and mount up with God like wings of eagles and soar.

First Day of Second Job

2005-11-01T19:19:00.000-08:00

So today I started at Meijer in the pharmacy department. I have taken a position of Technician and I am very excited about it. I will still be working at the daycare just part time and I am hoping that Meijer will turn into a full time position in the future. But praise the Lord I am going to be able to work with a Christian 3 out of 5 days that I will be working. I have been praying asking God to put me with a Christian and he has blessed me.

Happy Halloween!

2005-10-31T18:45:00.000-08:00

The day is over! Don't get me wrong I like halloween for the fact that I get to go and buy pumpkins, which is my fav part of this holiday, but thank you Lord that I have made it through today! Today was one of my long days of work which started out sleepy. I normally have 9am diaper changes but I convinced Lindsey D to do 9am and I would take 11am changes. 9 am changes are normally bad which means that at least 5 out of 11 children have a dirty diaper. To her joy and pleasure she had none so that means out of 11 children they were all wet. So guess who had 8 out of 11 dirty diapers come 10:45-11am......ME!!!!!!!!! Thats the last time I try to out do someone, as a matter of fact I think God was laughing at me as he knew what my thinking and he wanted to get me back! So as for the rest of the day I have 11 one-two year olds running around the room knowing that today is a special day but aren't quite sure why, but none the less very excited. So to say the least after the party was over this afternoon I was very glad to see the last child walk out of my classroom doors at 5:30 and I was glad for today to be over with the great Halloween night to begin for parents! So Happy Halloween to all expecially if you have children that went trick or treating!
