For six (okay 6 years and 11 months), it was just me. Cute and loveable me. Then on February 13, 1990, my baby sister Jill was born. We were living in England at that time. I had a baby sister to love and protect. Sometimes, I protect her a little too much, some might say I "mother" her...but I tell those people OH WELL lol. All I want for her, is happiness. SO, it's no surprise that she is marrying an awesome guy. It's almost like he was handpicked by an awesome person. Oh, yeah....he was. I, Sabrina Barnes, am so excited that I brought them together. I just think it's so awesome how God works. Jill and Adam met 10 years ago. I actually met Adam before James. Then I met James and learned all about Adam, who is as most people know...James' best friend. :)
Fast forward a couple years later to our wedding! Jill and Adam we both in our wedding. And now in less than a year, James and I get to be in her wedding. I love when things work out. And I really love how awesome I am at matchmaking. :) I am just so excited that they have a date and they have all the love in the world!! That is all for now, I am tired and need to finish a few things up...so to sum up this blog...Congrats Jill and Adam on picking a date! Now we can officially plan! And I am awesome...that is all lol.
Lots Of Love,
Sabrina

We Moved, and Survived!
Ok, so waaay back in 2010 I started this blog. It was my new years resoulution. And we all know how those turn out. So, here i am, trying again. Wish me luck!
On June 14, we headed for our adventure to Kingsbay, GA. I was 7 months pregnant, and I really didn't want to leave Charleston. And when I say I really didn't want to leave, I mean REALLY times a million, didn't want to leave. I cried packing up, I cried every night, I was a walking crying baby. You would think I would be used to this moving thing. I did grow up in an Air Force home after all. But honestly, moving will never be easy for me. It will never be something I can just be "ok" with. It will never get easier saying bye. It will never stop hurting when I see friends and family members doing things, I so desperately wish I was doing. So why do I do it? It's simple really, because I know this is where I am supposed to be. I know God put me here, and I accept that. Does that mean I always like it? No, of course not. But, I do love this country, and I do know James, loves serving his country. I don't think he would be happy anywhere else. I do miss people, I am ALWAYS missing someone. It's part of my life!
Ok, so we got here. And I immediately started panicking! Ok, first off - there is no Starbucks or Target in St. Mary's GA!!!!! Seriously, I have to go to Florida! Apparently the Navy did not get my memo on Starbucks and Target. I was in a culture shock moving here. But, I tried to stay positive - we bought our first house, that was exciting. My parents came and helped us fix up some things that needed fixing or updated. We are SO blessed to have them. By mid-August we had pretty much everything done (we still have pics to hang and a garage to sort, but that is another blog waiting to happen). Andrew started Kindergarten too! He was nervous, but so excited. I think I cried on and off all day...my first born, in school! That was a lot for this prego momma! Then on August 29, our sweet baby girl Vivian was born! My mom flew down here to help us! And I am SO glad she did. Recovery was a lot harder on me this last time. C-section #3 was def the hardest. I was one of 3, yes 3 ladies on the labor and delivery floor. That was so weird to know that there were 3 of us...and when I left 2. I was pretty confident they wouldn't switch my baby, lol. A paranoid thought that always crosses my mind. Stop making fun of me lol.
Having kids is the most rewarding job! I am so blessed! So, this was 2011 in a nutshell: Nathanael started walking, we moved, bought a house, Andrew started Kindergarten, and we had a baby. We don't like to do one thing at a time lol.
I survived!!!
Love,
Sabrina
