Hi Everybody...

Thought it was about time to let you all know that I am still allive and well. I do confess how bad I am at putting time aside to let you all in on the details from our lives in the Howes-house. What you need then is a thirteen hour shift at work which gives you plenty of time to write some special things for all of you that likes to keep on top of what's happening.

First of all the HOUSE - finally it all went through and I am sooooo excited about my new house. EVerytime I walk into it I just realize how blessed I am. God has so richly open heaven over us and thrown a massive portion our way... showered in his goodness. It's amazing can't wait to have you all around so you can see it with your own eyes.

I am also very excited about decorating, and we have decided to do all at one time to specially my mothers frustration, she calls to check up on me almost everyday to make me sit down, relax and put my feet up. I am trying to be obedient (and also submit to my husband) but having waited over 5 months for this house I can of itch to get on with it.... and man we've been blessed with help from the people we serve Jesus with here in Coventry. There's been people around everyday to help us out. Special THANKS to all you great servants!!!

Nick has ODed on IKEA for a while I think... and we did do two trips out there over the weekend to get stuff. There is just no place like IKEA, what can I say. We had fun buying all kinds of furnitures to kit out our new home and we'll have to wait and see if we love it just as much when we have to put it all together. Question is -how many screws will be missing!?! We've already realized that they forgot to send us the coverings for our sofa....

Another thing to update you all on is the baby... it's kicking and allive. But has gone from beeing very big for 20 weeks to very small for 30... so we'll have to wait and see what happens; not long now... just over 2 months and the little beautiful son or daughter of ours will be born. It's getting very close and I can't really understand how quickly it's all gone...

Well, I am at work and have to prepare a coffee station for a group of coaches that's here having a big do... so I'll leave you there.

Please come and visit us soon... and I'll show you my pride; the RED wardrobes... that's all!!!
