Happy Thanksgiving!!

Hubby, Clint, my 3 younger siblings and I took a quick Thanksgiving trip to NYC. Wore ourselves out, but had an awesome time seeing the Macy's parade, Ground Zero, riding the subway, and visiting as much of the city as we could. Miss my other 2 kiddos, but know they're in good hands..........and getting spoiled by grandma. :)

O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. Psalm 136:1

Happy Father's Day!!

(working on Daddy's card)

Clint loves his daddy. He gets excited when he comes home from work, he likes his truck and lawn mower (( vroom, vroom!!)), and he loves going outside with him. I'm so blessed to have married a man that makes such a good godly role model for my children!

I'm also blessed to still have my daddy alive and well. My mom couldn't say that when she was my age and I know of a couple of people who will be spending Father's Day this year for the first time without a dad. My heart goes out to them and I pray they'll receive an extra blessing tomorrow from their Heavenly Father. He truly loves us more than any human can or will!

A Visit to the NC Zoo

8 More Weeks to Go!

I think this is the first pregnancy picture I've put on here this time around. This one was taken yesterday at the NC Zoo. Clint and I have been spending the past 2 weeks up here with my parents since most of our church meetings this month have been scheduled around here. Hubby has been driving back and forth in between meetings due to still working his lawn care business. Where he gets all that energy, I have no clue.

Our missions deputation has been going really well and we're humbled at how good God's people have treated us thus far. Yes, it DOES get tiring doing all this traveling while pregnant and taking care of a 14 month old, but God has given us the strength. We had/have 169 meetings booked for 2011 and that includes a 4-5 week trip out west at the end of the year. That should be VERY interesting with 2 little boys. :)

Thanks for being patient with me during my sporadic blog posting! Hope to share pics of our newest addition SOON!

Today's Teaching Moment

"Learning how to use a spoon"

The end result?? A bath immediately after supper and a momma who wished she could fit the highchair and kitchen table into the dishwasher. :)
