Headed to church! I figure the earlier you get them in there the better!



This shot is to show off baby girl's hair! Yep, that is a bow and a spiked do!



Baby girl (4 weeks old)



K watching cartoons upside down.



still upside down.

So, the two children above have been keeping us VERY busy! K loves his new little sister. Sometimes he loves her too much and is a little rough but that is better than he not liking her, I guess! I have already begun praying that these two will love one another as my brother and I do. Two is certainly a new challenge but we are making it. We are still waiting for things to run smoothly................still waiting. We are are so blessed to have 2 healthy babies! I am so thankful. I am also thankful for a husband who does so much to help.

I am also thankful for a mother who looked at me this week and decided that I was a mess and provided me with a chiropractic visit (where things were popped back into place) a massage and a carwash. She knows that I would never do these things for myself. I thoroughly enjoyed the massage but did not realize that a massage would leave me feeling so sore. I guess I should have spoken up when the girl told me to tell her if she was too forceful. Oh, well, it was still a wonderful, peaceful experience. Thanks mom!

A gift from God

"charis"-It is the Greek word for grace. One of the meanings of the word is a gift that brought pleasure to another. It can also refer to the thankfulness felt for a gift or favor. The most significant way we use the word is in speaking of God's salvation. We are saved by grace...GRACE-God's Riches At Christ's Expense.

Peace on Earth

I recently read an email that talked about some sort of yellow shirt and a mother and daughter passing it between them and in the end it talked about how the daughter realized what her mother had given her after her death. I can't remember it word for word and have deleted it into internet space but I remember the jest of it.

It talked about the peace that the daughter was left with after her mother died because she knew that she was in heaven and that she would see her again. I have experienced this peace. I believe that the best gift that my dad could have given me, he did. He left me with the peace of knowing that his heart belonged to Jesus Christ and that he would live eternally with him. He left me with the peace that I would one day see him again. He left me with a peace, which I often cling to in times of sadness, that although he did not get to experience my children here on this earth that he will one day meet them. I truly believe that he already knows them. Thank you Jesus for offering you perfect peace to us in so many ways!

This is what "Peace on the Earth" meant to me this year. Because my heavenly father sent his son to die on a cruel cross for me I will see my earthly father again. I have a peace on this earth!

Been Farmin' Long?

Christmas day was spent in shorts and short sleeves and K did some farming!
It was a Very Merry Christmas!

Happy Birthday Jesus!

10 Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.”

Luke 2:10-12

The twins take a Saturday Snoozer!
