Relocation.

Posted by Josh Stringer

We have relocated to the same blog address. No one should be able to still get this feed... I don't think anyway. If you're still getting this go here: www.stringerhousehold.blogspot.com and re-subscribe. Thanks!

Family Snow Video

Posted by Josh Stringer

Check out our new video. We had a nice walk in the snow yesterday and some sledding today. Thanks to Shane and Jess Sander for babysitting Truett for a few minutes and letting us borrow the sleds. It was a nice date for us.



We're supposed to get a few more inches on Sunday. Craziness.

The Latest Snow

Posted by Josh Stringer

Well, we got about 6-8 inches of snow today - depending on who you ask. Either way it was a nice snow. We're supposed get another inch or so tonight along with 20-30mph winds and temperatures in the low teens. Hopefully we'll keep power this year and the roads won't get too bad.

Anyway, here are some pictures in no particular order...

Oh well. P.C. wins out. Congrats to the Saints. They earned it.

Super Bowl Pick

Posted by Josh Stringer

I figured, just before the game starts, I'd throw my prediction out there for the Super Bowl. I'm looking forward to actually watching a really good football game regardless of who wins. However, I just can't bring myself to root for the Saints. I know. I know. It seems un-P.C. and maybe un-American (because the city of N.O. "deserves" a Super Bowl win) to root against them but they whooped the Falcons twice this year. I've never liked the Saints and I actually d0 like the Colts. I'd also like to see Peyton Manning get another ring. I think he's probably the best QB of all time and another ring would add to that idea. I like the story of New Orleans. It would make a great documentary or something about hope and joy for the city, but I just think the Colts are a better team. Not a much better team. But a better team.

So, not that it matters to me a whole lot, but I'm thinking
Colts 37 Saints 31

The score looks close, but I don't think it will be that close. The Colts will be up by a few touchdowns and then the Saints will make a comeback, but in the end, I'll go with Peyton and the Colts to win it in Miami, where snow isn't on the ground.

By the way, we're supposed to get 6 inches of snow on Tuesday. Yay.

Shana's Update: Contests

Posted by Shana Stringer

I was talking to a friend the other day about contests. Man it would be nice to win some free stuff at contests. Well, here is my first attempt. I read about this blog on my friend Jennifer's blog. It is the Modest Mom Shop. A very cute name. Well, they are giving away a free clothing item. There are some really cute skirts. I really like them, I will let you know if I win something. You should check it out if you would like to enter to win, although I am sure that will narrow my chances.

Funky Jesus Music

Posted by Josh Stringer

I think everybody needs some.


Shana and I are big goober Toby Mac fans. I think I've explained on here before my love for music. I think I'm pretty eclectic when it comes to my choices for music. Its probably surprising to some. But, judging by what I've heard from this album, "City on our Knees," "Showstopper," and now this background song "Tonight," sounds like a winner. Can't wait. Thanks mom and dad for the iTunes gift card for Christmas. Nice how that works out.

New Semester, New Books. And Snow.

Posted by Josh Stringer

Here are the load of books I have for this semester. Some of these I read for my J-term class a few weeks ago. The best so far.... "How To Read A Book." You should check it out if you're much of a reader and have a hard time with speed and retention (like me).
My classes this semester:
Greek (online w/Dr. Pennington)
N.T. Theology (Tom Schreiner...he wrote the big red book with the same title as my class as well as being the editor of the NT portion of the ESV Study Bible)
Systematic Theology III (Russell Moore)
Hermeneutics (Jim "the human cross-reference" Hamilton)

Its hard to not be really overly proud of where I go to school. I think when I graduate I'll not have really realized the greatness of the professors here so I try to take in as much as I can while I am here. Other Southern grads will commiserate I'm sure.


And now for the snow. Last week I posted something about us "Expecting Again." Well this is what I meant. Yes, I know what it sounded like. THAT WAS THE POINT! Ha! Anyway here are pictures from the morning walk with Zoe. She loves the snow. As do I.

Our apartments.


And now for my favorite four legged girl:
