Look Who's 2!

Two years ago today this face took my breath away... And he's still doing it today. Happy Birthday Levi! You have been the most wonderful blessing from God, and we love you so very much. We are amazed each day at how God works through you even at your young age. Our prayer is for you to continue to seek Him all the days of your life, and to live the life He has called you to. We can already tell He has BIG things in store for you. Love, Mommy & Poppy

Wedded Bliss

Six years ago today I married my best friend. Thank you for all the memories and the millions more to come. I love you with every part of me, and thank the Lord everyday for giving me such an amazing life with you. I can't wait to see what He has in store for us in the years to come.

We just want to wish Aaron's dad a very

Happy Birthday!

Hope you have a wonderful day and lots of fun celebrating!

Congrats

Yesterday Aaron's dad graduated from Emory's Candler School of Theology with his Masters of Divinity. We are so proud of him, and pray God's blessings upon him as he continues to serve the Lord in ministry.

Just want to tell my mother, mother-in-law, and all other mothers out there...

Happy Mother's Day!

I hope it was wonderful and filled with lots of love.

This is my AMAZING sister...

She celebrated her 24th birthday on Wednesday. She is one of the most amazing women I know. She loves Jesus with all she is, and it is evident in every conversation we have. She is kind, soft hearted, compassionate, loving, independent, encouraging, upfront, honest, helpful, respectful, and absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I feel so completely blessed to have her in our lives and be able to share my deepest hurts and greatest joys with her. She is one of my best friends, and I love her. We celebrated her birthday this week with dinner, cake, and games, but I neglected to make a post wishing her a "Happy Birthday" on Wednesday. So I hope she knows just how much we love her and forgives us for posting this a little late. I hope she can also find it in her heart to forgive me for posting the next picture, but this is the side of my sister that I love the most. The FUN side. The side that always makes me laugh. I love that about her. We can joke, make complete fools of ourselves, and have a blast doing it! We just enjoy being retarded together, and who wouldn't want a sister like that? Thanks for bring the party wherever you go. You truly are an amazing part of our lives!

Happy 24th Birthday Lou!!

I (we) love Beth too - always and forever!

Family Worship

We have been reading this book for our small group at church, and all I have to say is WOW! We are only about halfway through the book and it has already challenged me in so many ways about how I parent as a Christian. I'll keep all my nuggets of knowledge for another post once I finish the book, but I wanted to share something we've started in our family. Part of the book talks about family worship. Family worship is basically just what is says - time during the day when the family worships the Creator together. We do ours in the evening for about 10 minutes. We read a devotion, a passage or story from scripture, pray, and sing songs. It has been a challenged to do this every night because of our schedules sometimes, but realizing the importance of it we try to schedule everything else around it. Our favorite part of family worship is the music. Thanks to some friends we've found these awesome songs from Seeds Family Worship. The videos are lots of fun, the tunes are catchy but not annoying as other children music can be, and best of all it is straight scripture. Be sure to check out their website. They've got lots of great tools and ideas for teaching little ones the Bible. Here's a video of one of our favorites so far. Hope you enjoy! Be sure to scroll down and turn our blog music off before you start the video :)
