The Love of My Life

Happy Anniversary Cory!

With every year, every milestone, every storm, every victory I love you more and more.  I thank God for the man you are and the man you are becoming.  I am so blessed to go down this road of life with you.

I love you Babe….Happy 8 years….!!!

God gave you and me
A precious love
That has grown in time
When things were tough
It was in those times
When love came through
In laughing, in crying
Our love stands true
Our love still grows
And deepens even more
With hope in our hearts
And trust in our Lord

Little Hunters

The first weekend of huntin’ season was a busy one!  Not only did we have to get ready for the big hunt but we stayed our first night in the new house too! 

We did manage to get the girls in a stand…the most important thing!  They love to go huntin’ with me and their Daddy!  VK and her Daddy saw lots of deer but no keepers.  As for me and Sissy, well, we didn’t see anything!  But we had lots of fun learning all the new games on my blackberry!

We LOVE takin’ our girls huntin’ and can’t wait for our little man to go too!

God is good……..ALL the time,

My Birthday Gift

The beginning of October was my birthday….my 30th birthday!  It was an extremely special one for more reasons than one. 

Cora Jane and Vera Kate both had made professions of faith for our Lord.  On this day, October 3rd, they both were baptized!

Cora Jane had made her decision and asked God into her heart awhile back but was too scared to get baptized.  She isn’t crazy about water getting on her face and was worried the water would go up her nose.  Our pastor, Brother Donnie, even told her she could wear her mask…hehe!

Vera Kate had made her own profession of faith during this journey with Cora Jane.  We convinced Cora Jane that with some practice (in the bathtub) we could ease her fear of the water.  And that’s exactly how it happened. 

   Vera Kate, Marlee, and Cora Jane

The day was filled with lots of friends and family.  We were and are all so proud of the decision the girls have made.  God continues to bless our family with His love, grace, and mercy.  I feel so rich in His gifts…….my children.

Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.  Mark 16:16

Behold, children are a gift of the LORD,The fruit of the womb is a reward.  Psalm 127:3

Oh October!

Ok, I am so sorry for not posting these last weeks but things have been really crazy!  From moving, fixing up the new house, cleaning out the old house, fall festivals, Halloween, the Ag Expo, the girl’s Baptism, and well everyday life.  ~~Whew~~

So these next few posts I’m going to rewind and play back what we’ve been up to this last month.
