favorite thing & a funny thing


Here's Isabel and Luke doing one of their favorite things, going on picnics down on the bay!  I have been grabbing a big blanket, and an easy lunch, and taking them down by the water to eat lunch.  They love to watch the birds and see the dogs walk by.  This is them sitting on the bench admiring their shadows.  Yesterday, we saw the ducks and I will post those pictures soon too. 

A funny thing...

You know how there's sort of a twin phenomenon lately?  
Well, mine are completely natural by the way ~ but anyway.......
The other day in Target, I was going down the baby food aisle (which I do on a regular basis)
I couldnt get through the aisle b/c there was a big buggy with three kids in it, so I proceeded to attempt to enter the aisle from the other side.  While i was turning around i noticed, the big buggy family had a set of twins in their buggy.  So, then i rounded the other corner and as I was going in from the other corner, I was blocked out by another set of twins....then here I come with my twins.  Yep, three sets of twins on the very same aisle, on the very same day. They were both girl sets. It was a fun moment!

We went to Memphis last weekend to visit family and at the hotel swimming pool were 3 set of twins! Out of the 11 children, 6 were twins. It was a little weird. It's so funny because you can tell people want to ask you what you did to get twins. I always throw in the conversation that I was not on any drugs or anything just so they can stop wondering. :)

2 days before the twins arrived....

I am so thankful my Dad took this picture....to remind me what it felt like to hold two precious lives inside of me...

Be encouraged!

Lord fill my heart with Yours
that I may know Your will,
those things that I should act upon
and when you want me still.

Guard my mind from useless thoughts
that clutter, harm, confuse.
Create in me a closeness
that Your course I'll always choose.

Clear my hearing, teach me
to identify the lies,
that I may only hear the truth
of who I am in Christ.

Lord, satisfy and fill me
with Your Spirit from above,
that I may truly know the freedom
of Unfailing Love.

Then planted deeply in that love,
my heart in full surrender,
Lift the veil for all to see,
my life display Your splendor.


Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
