OUR DISNEY TRIP!!

We went to Disney World for Emily Grace's 4th Birthday!! We had a great time, it was me, Dad, Emily and Aunt Debbie.

We did everything princess there was to do, Emily loved every minute and so did we!! Here's some of my favorite pics:

Ok so I'm going to try to get back into this...

Hi all, if anyone is still reading :) So what's going on with me, I'm 26 weeks pregnant with a baby boy!!! I'll have to post a pic soon of my prego belly, I have determined that God didn't intend for short people to be pregnant, I'm running out of room for this little guy to grow:) Things are going well with our new church, I am working as the Director of Children's Ministries 3 days a week. Emily Grace is in preschool 2 of those days and Nana keeps her on Mondays. God is truly blessing Grace Community, we are about 18 months old and we are averaging between 700-800 people each week, truly amazing! We are about to move our gathering place to a local high school that has a theater seating 700. We hope it will be our last move until we have our own building... My sister Debbie has moved to Clarksville, which is very exciting. She lives just down the road, she has a traveling job during the week so we typically only see her on Fri, Sat and Sun but it's still great to have her closeby. I think that's all the new exciting news, I will post more updates soon!

Long time, no blogging :)

Hi all, I know it's been a while! Sorry I'll try to get back into this... this fall has been really fun. We have played in the leaves out back and made our annual Pumpkin Patch trip, here's some photos for you to enjoy...

Our trip to Yellowstone & Grand Tetons

Here's a link to our pictures from Yellowstone & Grand Tetons, it was a fabulous trip! I recommend that everyone go there once in your lifetime! Memorial day weekend proved to be a great time to go, not crowded and cheaper rates on hotels... anyway click on the Yellowstone album, then click "Check all", then "View Slide Show" There's some cute pictures at the end of Emily's sweet Welcome Home sign, we missed her alot... Enjoy!!

Daddy's in China

Please pray for Steve right now as he is on a 24 hour flight to Shanghai, China... for the 3rd time in 18 months!! Emily has already told me today that this is a sad day, I asked her why and she said, "I miss Daddy already!" We made a link chain and we will tear one link off each day until he comes home. She has already asked me at least 20 times today if we can take a link off yet :) So pray for Daddy to return home safely. Until then we will just count the links on our chain, we miss you Dad!

A "Real" Princess Tea Party

On Saturday, there was a Princess Tea Party at Toys 'R Us. While waiting in line to meet the "real" princesses, Emily Grace (aka Cinderella) had lots of fun with the other little princesses that were waiting. We found another Cinderella & Snow White!

But then came the moment we had all been waiting for...Emily ran up to Cinderella & she threw her arms around her! Cinderella picked her up & Emily was totally mesmerized! She is still talking about meeting Snow White, Cinderella, & Sleeping Beauty! She keeps telling everyone, "They were REAL & they talked to me & gave me kisses!" It was a very fun day!!
