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!

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. ...

Tuesday Toddler Tales~A Mother's Worst Nightmare

I lost Jack. Don't worry, he has been found but for the longest I'd say 8 minutes of my life he was gone. I was at the mall with two girlfriends and their kiddos. We were all having lunch at the food court when I stepped away to get some ketchup. Jack stayed behind with his friends. I was gone for maybe a minute and a half or so. When I came back he was gone. His chair was pushed in and empty. I began to panic. One friend stayed behind with all the other kids while my other friend and I darted off in oposite directions. Others began to notice our panic and jumped in the search with us. I saw nothing in my direction, not even shoppers. I turned around and started the other way. I got to the carousel where I thought he'd be and he wasn't. At this point it took everything in my power not to faint. I felt like everything around me was spinning. I was so overwhelmed with where to look. I just kept running, frantically asking people if they saw a little blond-haired boy with ...

Notoriety

Teenage Mother A donkey owner Simon of Cyrene Who are these people? I am sure you can figure out the first one: Mary the mother of Jesus. Who are the others and what do all three of these people have in common? They all did extraordinary things but, for the most part, went unseen. Do you ever feel unseen? Undervalued? I do. I try not to get caught up in that space, but I find myself there too often. While Mary is infamous today, she wasn't when she brought the King into this world. She was a teenager who gave birth in a barn. She was an outcast who was pregnant but not married. She told of an unbelievable story involving an angel, a Spirit, and a Savior who was going to save the world. Could you even imagine? It's easy for us to be in awe of Mary. We know the whole story. She didn't. And neither did the people around her. She had to live it. To top it all off, she had to watch her beloved son die a gruesome death. Talk about feeling unseen and undervalued. She faithfu...
