Happy Birthday Aunt Jenni!!

Yesterday was Jenni's Bday (my stepsister) and we celebrated with her at Johnny Carino's. We had a really good time and the food was great. Jenni you are a blessing to each of us and God has a mighty plan for your life. We are proud of the mom that you are and all that you have and are accomplishing in your life. We love you!!

What is that wet stuff?

I just thought this was a really cute moment so I snapped a pic. Yesterday we got some much needed rain here in the panhandle dry land:) The kids were just fascinated...I was doing some stuff around the house and came upon them plastered against the door checking out the storm:)

Blessed Beyond Words

Larry and I have been blessed this week in a way I don't think words can touch. Addison Grace called me on Saturday of this last week on my cell phone (Larry and I were out of town) and she asked me if we could pray when we got home. I said yes but she could pray now if she would like. She quickly stopped me and said "no mamma.... I want to ask Jesus to come into my heart forever!" I through my tears of joy that were streaming like rain said of course we can honey and hung up the phone. That moment will never leave me. So much gratitude to our Father was washing over me I can't event tell you. So we flew home that night and didn't see her bc she was already asleep. So on Father's Day... I really can't think of a better day... God has impecible timing I tell ya... Larry lead her in a prayer and she repeated the words and we watched our gift become one with our Father. WE were there when he welcomed his child that he has given us on consignment... the child he literally knit together in my womb so carefully and set forth the very moment this would take place. It was overwhelming in every sense. It was a gift that can be never out given. I am so grateful God is faithful to us and that he sits on his throne and longs for relationship with each of us. It is incredible the journey this incredible little girl has started. It is so exciting for me I can hardly stand it... God has HUGE things for her and they are already unfolding... her influence is now not later....Thank you my Father in Heaven with all that I am I thank you and I worship you... I am humbled by your grace and by your infinte ways.... You are amazing and worthy of all praise... My heart can't hold all the love and gratitude I have for you on this day and every other.

Cincinnati

Larry and I just got back from a trip to Ohio. We went to have a Grand Opening of sorts for a club that just opened there. We had alot of work but managed to fit in some fun too. We went to get ice cream one night down on the river and the Reds were playing the Red Sox across the river in a huge stadium. We caught front row seats to a spectacular fire works show.. it was really neat.... We also went out for Korean food which was good much to my surprise and we had incredible sushi..we don't get much of that in Borger:)

Shake it girl:)

Addison Grace had her first dance recital a few weeks ago and of course she did unbelievable... the first dance they were little bee's and they tapped to " Don't Worry Be Happy" and the second dance was to "Somewhere Out There" and they did ballet to it.... She was a riot.. they had one part where they turned around and shook their "stingers" and she was getting down let me tell ya. She is such a joy and really enjoys performing... where did she get that...??????

My Brother's Wedding Pics

A few weekends ago we loaded up and headed for Lake Burnet for my Brother's wedding. The wedding was at a lodge up there right on the lake and it was just beautiful. Addison was the flower girl and did a great job:0 Several of you have asked for pics and I really didn't have time to take many so here is the link to all the pics from the weekend. It was a really pretty wedding and they were a really pretty couple. Shawna looked gorgeous and everything went off just perfect. Hope you enjoy...
