Just a quick update on Julie’s Journey. It has been a busy time in my life. My productivity has improved at work. I must give all the glory to our LORD. Praying helped me through that tumultuous first 90 days. Praying for myself, my family and my co-workers.

If you missed it on Facebook, go see photos from T.A.G 2012 October. TAG, which stands for The Ashley Gathering, does not happen as frequently as this mama/grandmama would like but when it does, it is such a blessing to me.

Allen and I set out some goals for our family many years ago. We wanted our children to love and help each other. We wanted them to be responsible people- not just reactive but proactive. We especially want them to follow after the LORD.

Most gatherings happen because of marriages or funerals, or holidays. TAG 2012 October happened because our children just wanted to get together and love each other. We really missed Jeff, Leon and Kaiden- our three missing men. But we had a great time.

Thank you, Michael & Melissa! M&M, as we like to call them, hosted the event and we know it is NO SMALL THING to have THAT MANY PEOPLE show up at your house, eat and leave… and they had to work in the morning, too! We really appreciate you both.
