Happy 30th Birthday to Me!

The time has come to say goodbye to my 20s. I am ready. I have been preparing myself for my 30s for 29 years. I am excited for a new chapter, and new adventure. The possibilities that stand before me in my 30s excites me. So much happened during my 20s: graduated college, began my teaching career, got married, got a masters degree, had a baby, moved 1500 miles away from everything I ever knew to Texas. What could be ahead of me? So many possibilities! I am thrilled and waiting in anticipation for God's story to unfold in my life! So, goodbye 20s and hello 30s. Bring it on!

My sweet, wonderful, ammazing husbdand and awesome best friend put together a little dinner celebration at Cheesecake Factory to celebrate. I was very surprised and so humbled by the people who showed up to celebrate with me! Thank you!!!

I'm 30! Me in my sassy crown Bre got me.


So, I had little girls come up to me all night wishing me a happy birthday. This little girl brought tears to my eyes when she sang me "Happy Birthda." She was so sweet!


My letter/card from Scott. He always knows how to make me laugh and cry at the same time.


I had seven clues to my gift. The last clue said, "I gave mine to you-so now I have none, and you have two." My gift was an eternity heart necklace and matching ring from Tiffany's. I know, I know...hence the big smooch!


No, I will not tell you my wish!

The girls...me, Bre, and Jamie

Holy Holy

I can't stop singing, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty." Scott and I went to the "big" ultrasound today where we tested to see if our baby had Down's, one of the Trisomy disorders, or any neural tube defects. I must admit the palms were a little sweaty and the heart was racing a bit. As surreal as this pregnancy is, I don't want anything to be wrong with this precious life inside of me. Well, holy is right. The Lord is not just good; He is awesome! Our little baby instantly began moving and grooving for us showing off fingers and toes and a great heart beat! Even though I am on my third, watching the miracle of life on that screen NEVER gets old! It truly blows my mind every time I get to see our precious angels developing inside of me! The scan came out wonderfully. We got all positives on all the scans the doctor (who was absolutely INCREDIBLE) could do. Now we just wait for some blood work to confirm that everything is okay with our little boy. ...

Our Miracle

"He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted." Job 9:10 "You are the God who performs miracles; You will display Your power among the peoples." Psalm 77:14 Meet our miracle...and our secret. Yes, it is true. I am pregnant; about twelve weeks and a few days to be exact. We wanted to make sure this baby was healthy before announcing how great God has been to us! We have known about this precious little blessing for a little over two months and have eagerly awaited numerous sonogram and test results. We have witnessed God's mighty, yet gentle, hand every Tuesday for the past five weeks. This baby is a fighter. However, the road is not "clear" quite yet. We met with the pareanatoligist today to do a sonogram and blood test to determine if there are any chromosomal abnormalities; specifically Downs, and Trisomy 13 and 18. Although the sonogram looked great and the doctor said we were in the "safe zone," we are stil...

A Welcome Blessing in a Surprise

"For you created me in my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Psalm 139:13-14 A few weeks ago Scott and I got the surprise of our lives! I was home with the kids. Jack was napping while Grady and I were snuggling while I was feeding him his bottle. I had a strange feeling that something was up. I decided to take a pregnancy test not thinking the answer would be anything but negative. As the hour glass blinked on the screen, I continued to play with my baby. Then, the words appeared..."pregnant." What? No way! I think I had to look at the test a million times before I really believed what I was reading. How was this possible? I was holding my 4 month old for goodness sakes! I laughed out loud right then and there and praised God for His humor and His blessing. Scott didn't get home until late that night. I wrote, "Oops! We did it agai...
