Fun Family Weekend

We had visitors from Texas this week. Erin's parents drove up to spend the weekend with us since Erin's birthday was Saturday (She's now 25 & a whole quarter of a century old!). It was my sister's birthday(not saying how old, but she's 6 years older than Erin) last Saturday so we all met in Texarkana along with my parents & celebrated at Texas Roadhouse. It was a rare chance to have both sets of our parents together along with my sister & her whole family (we missed Brian & Besty being there but San Antonio was too long of a drive just for a birthday dinner).

It was also a great celebration of the new baby on the way. There was lots of baby talk going on this weekend, which is exciting but also overwhelming for both of us right now. Our church family is excited, in fact we had numerous offers to babysit in case we need some practice. We weren't sure if they really wanted to help us or if they just wanted a free babysitter!

The Lord's blessings are new & fresh everday if we're willing to recognize them. May God continue to bless each of you & thanks for your prayers.
