Crazy time...

These last few weeks have been a blur. We have been so busy with plans during the week and then even more plans on the weekend. We are proud to note the we are the "official" God Parents of Keegan and Carter Hix! They were both baptized on Saturday October 11, 2009. Keegan is 5 years old and Carter turned 3 years old on the same day as the baptism. It was also my dad's (AKA: PoPa) birthday. We are so blessed to have such a great family in our lives!

While I was shopping at Hallmark I found this necklace!

I found this necklace in the clearance area and there were 3 left. I bought all 3 and gave one to my mom (AKA: Grandma Terry) and Winnie (my "adopted" sister) the day of the baptisim. Grace has a way of showing me that she is always with us. I wore this to work for the first time and a few people saw the necklace and gave me a big smile! :) Thank you to everyone for their continued love and support!

Trying to heal...

Ray and I have been trying to heal. We decided that we needed to finish some projects around the house to help us move forward. We had a friend of the family come over and paint the baby room. We had cleared the room and primed over the pink but never got to pick out a color for the room. One day at home Depot we picked out a color that was close to the color of Ray's bedroom growing up. As we prepare for another baby in our future (yes we are "practicing") we have learned that it doesn't matter what color the walls are, or what the bedding looks like, the most important thing is that we have a happy healthy baby. We hope to be blessed again so that we can share our love!
