Spring is in the air!

Nothing too exciting has taken place at the Porterfield house in awhile. We have some traveling weekends coming up. This weekend we are headed to Charlotte and Hickory to spend some time with my grandparents. Next weekend we are headed to Nashville for my mom’s birthday. We are also contemplating going to St. Simons Island for Easter for some R and R. Tim was in Waycross last weekend for his family reunion as well.

A few things we have really been enjoying the last few weeks, the new small group we joined and our Thursday Trio night. We joined a new small group at the end of January and have been meeting regularly since mid February at our house. This group I truly feel was hand picked to meet together. Each week we have all been sharing our stories with each other. I’m usually not a big fan of this but each week I get more and more excited about who’s story I’m going to hear. Well we finished them up this past week and one of the guys in our group put it well, he said this group is so real. I couldn’t agree more. Everyone seems so genuine, ready to meet and interact with other Christian couples and to also grow in their walk. I’d say we are off to a great start. Each week when everyone leaves Tim and I both agree how lucky we are to have landed in such a great group.

Thursday night Trio is something we started last summer. The group consists of 3 couples and we meet every other Thursday night for dinner. We rotate houses and the person’s who’s house dinner is at is completely in charge of the dinner. It can be as fancy or casual as you’d like it, but the other couples can’t bring anything. We thought this would be fun because you can get tired of the same ole meals you make and rotate each week and this way we learn new recipes’ and also have a night where we don’t have to cook.
