Kimberly's Wedding in Pictures

Thankful Tuesday

Today I am thankful for the time we got to spend in the Grand Cayman. It was so relaxing and perfect. I am so thankful for my dad and step mom who took us and treated us to everything under the sun! I'm thankful to God that He answered my many prayers for my girls this week; they were safe, had a blast, slept well, and behaved (as far as I know.)

I am thankful for the time I got to spend with the girlies today. They were so stinking fun and cute. I just missed them so much while I was gone and felt so blessed all day that they are mine. :)

I am thankful for my dear friend Kimberly starting a brand new chapter of her life. She has been through so much. I am just so happy for her. (Hopefully, Ill post about the wedding another day this week.)

I am thankful to God that He knew us (me) well enough to know that I needed cycles and seasons in life. I am thankful for this season or cycle of rest in our lives. I finally feel like I "feel" restful and I'm thankful.

Exciting News!

We are expecting again and we couldn't be more excited! Thankful to God for blessing us with this new little miracle! I am 14 weeks and 3 days today and I already have a "bump"! The baby is due November 20th!

I can't help but think of psalm 139:14-17 when I think of this little life:

I praise you because this baby is fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works God are wonderful, I know that full well. The baby's frame is never hidden from you while being made in the secret place...Your eyes see this unformed body; all the days ordained for this baby were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts God! How vast is the sum of them!

Thankful Tuesday

We have had such a fun fun week! We have spent lots of cousin time! We went to the Botanic Gardens and had one of the best times we have had anywhere ever. We have played, and swam and have watched movies. We have enjoyed every second of spending time with all of our family and friends! I was able to get away and spend a night at the lake house with some girls who share the last name Fisher and it was so much needed and enjoyed. I am so blessed to be part of a family of people who truly love Jesus and live it. We joined a new small group and got to know some people at our new church better. God has richly blessed us this week with quality time with quality people.

On top of all of that I feel like I have truly rested this week in all ways possible, mentally, physically, spiritually and I am so thankful to God for wanting that for me and allowing it all to happen.

I am upper thankful that we are leaving to celebrate a new chapter of one of my dearest friend's lives tomorrow. We are headed to the Caymans for Kimberly Pollan's wedding and I couldn't be happier for her.

Praise the Lord! Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good..... Psalm 106:1

And you will say in that day: Give thanks to the Lord, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the peoples, proclaim that his name is exalted. Sing praises to the Lord, for he has done gloriously; let this be made known in all the earth.
Isaiah 12:14-15
