Mawmaw comes to visit...and dress up time!

-
We were so blessed to have my Mawmaw Reed fly up to visit my parents for a week and stayed half of her time in Colorado in Fort Collins! It was awesome. She got to be with all five of her great grandbabies and even blessed us with some yummy sopapillas the last morning she was here. The best parts for me were going golfing with my mom, mawmaw and my sister Rachel.(Hasn't happened since we were probably 12-14 years old) And the other fun time was going to the flea markets with Mawmaw and my mom where we scored an awesome rocking horse for the kids! It was so much fun. I miss my Mawmaw and am so glad my kids know her. She's amazing and I wish we could visit her more often and see Pawpaw who is now living in a great place for people with Alzheimer's.
This is our try at 4 generations shot!!! HA HA HA!

Ok...so sweet Avery got a suitcase full of dress up clothes for her 3rd birthday and is very nice about sharing her stuff with Malachi and Rachel! THEY LOVE IT! And as usual it was very fun for my sister to dress Malachi in "pink" anything and dresses and earrings and necklaces!(he did ask to wear them)
Ok...this is Malachi as a pink power ranger. He loved this costume...and strangely while wearing the mask he did not speak at all! AT ALL! He walked around doing things without talking for a long time. It did scare Avery though...sweet girl wasn't sure of him.

Moving to California, our Journey from 2 viewpoints.

-
     So we are moving to San Diego California!  We are going to be attending a Christian Discipleship school called IMPACT 195 (i195.org).  The goal of this school is to grow people in their relationship with Jesus Christ so that they can impact the world for God's kingdom during these 12 months and afterwards for the rest of their lives.  Please go online and check it out if you are interested in seeing what we are going to be up to!      Since we have made the decision to go to San Diego, time has gone by so quickly, so here is the back story from Aaron's perspective.  I have worked now for Furniture Row for almost 10 years!  I have also been married for 10 years!  So needless to say, I started with Furniture Row 3 months after we got married back in 2003.  As most of you know, we have moved from Colorado to Montana to Indiana to Michigan and then back to Colorado!  It has gone by quickly and we have had ...

This season is full. Full of sad times, busy times and some great memories made. One thing I truly enjoy is to cook. It is in my blood. My Mawmaw is an amazing cook who then taught my mom who inspired me to cook. All three of us...well I should say four because my sister is amazing too....cook different in many ways but the same in others. It is just the joy of creating. For me I find so much joy in finding new tastes and beautiful dishes. I also find joy in old fashioned cookin. This one all started when we had moved to Indianapolis. It was the first time ever I didn't have a job. I was 7 months pregnant in a new town/state and didn't know anyone. As many of you know I rarely can sit still. I need to be productive.....and this came to mind. Why not create delicious jellies and jams.. Not only is it super cost effective. It is a fun gift to give and a great way to make healthier options for my kiddos. So...can away. Here is this summers first bunch...and I am sure there will be...

Wheewww! What a CHRISTmas we have had. I know many of you all know about our surpise gift of delivering Caleb almost 9 weeks early on Dec. 22. But I also know that there are many details we just have been too overwhelmed with this to share. So here goes. This journey has been amazing. It is as if the Lord just said "I want to show you more of me. More of why so many things and people are in your lives. Remember...I am the one writing this story and I have always had something greater than you know planned." No kidding! The minute that the doctor said I was dialated to 6 we looked at each other and a flood of crying came...and came...and came. And then thru the tears Aaron's first words were..."Do you like Caleb Anthony?" Yep, we had not fully decided on his name and this was our top pic for a while we just couldn't hammer it down. Absolutely is his name= "COURAGEOUS". When the time came for the last few hours of real hard contractions this time, i...
