Christiana…what can I say but that she was absolutely incredible, in so many ways. I am so blessed to have her as a friend.

“As you look past Isaac’s shoulder, you see Christ, and so you submit to Isaac, as unto Christ.” Thank you so much, Mr. Shively, for the incredible reminder and challenge of what it means to love and submit.

Stephen and Alisha Cummins were a special blessing as they sang Let it be said of Us.

IMG_8901It was a special privilege to have at the wedding several couples from my mission family!
IMG_8944 I can just hear them saying “Ooohhh! Aaaahh!  This is going to be good!”
IMG_8954Luke is in his element! 
IMG_9062It was fun to not only cut our own piece of pie, but to also then serve the pie to the guests.

Classic.

Some people just pitched in and helped.  It was such a blessing!  Thanks John!
IMG_9165I think, (no, I know!) they were up to something!

After our “getaway”, we came back after things were cleaned up and opened gifts with those who were still at the church. Most would not be around after we got back from our honeymoon, so we decided to do it while they were still in the area. I’m glad we did it!
IMG_9277And I didn’t even realize it was there until someone told me. Who was the little culprit?  Look at the previous picture!

IMG_9276“Hey look!  There’s a car!”

Somehow, I think Isaac has turned this into the modern-day equivalent to the “schoolboy pulling schoolgirl’s braids” scenario. Don’t be surprised if you see a couple discs under the sink and other such random places when you come to visit us!

And they are gone…for real now. *tear* Well, I don’t know…I think they went to the park to celebrate that we were finally married.  Too bad we had to miss out on the party…

Pictures taken by Sarah Henderson and Justin King -- they did a great job!

The Beginner's Gospel Story Bible {A Book}

With Talitha growing more and more in her understanding of what we say and do, I have been looking for a good children's Story "Bible" read to her.  (I say "Bible" because these books are not literally what we would believe to be the inspired Word of God but rather illustrated books with the main stories of the Bible written for children.)    While I have not come across bad illustrated children's Bibles, there are, admittedly, some that are better than others. Gospel-centric children's Bibles, such as the Jesus Story Book Bible , that strive to focus on the Gospel-themes as portrayed throughout Scripture, are popular these days and are some of the best options out there!  However, I have had a hard time deciding which one I wanted to buy.    And then I read a review for The Beginner's Gospel Story Bible, by Jared Kennedy, published by New Growth Press in 2017. After about 5 minutes of "looking inside it" on Amazon, ...

To Rejoice and To Weep

The announcement that they were expecting was adorable. The added twist in the announcement saying that they were expecting twins made it even more delightful, for it is not every day that the Facebook algorithm brings up a "we're expecting twins" announcement! I'm truly happy for the couple who is now awaiting the arrival of not one, but two precious little ones!  But along with the joy in my heart came a twinge of sadness: my heart couldn't help but think back to the time, four years ago now in March, when we were also expecting twins. The thrill of finding out we were expecting was only heightened by the discovery that there were two! For somewhere between 5 1/2 and 12 weeks, I carried our two little treasures, created in God's image and precious in His sight.  But then there was no more growth. There was no more life. The twins were no longer with us. God had taken them from us.  In these bittersweet moments of joy tarnished by sadness, Scrip...

A story in pictures...

For those of you who were not able to make it... and for those who were... here are a few of my favorites from June 1, 2013!  Leading up to "the first look" No comment needed Hehe...this picture makes me smile every time I see it!  Um...I think this group has too much fun together!  No goofing around here...not with the dads in the background! I think this was the part about the island...where no girls were allowed. But then he led into the incredible picture between Christ and the Church and marriage.  It was a memorable moment.   Both Dad and Mom walked me down the aisle...another special time to remember!   I think, just possibly, Mr. Shively was telling Isaac he could kiss his bride. We hardly even noticed all the commotion..                                     He was the cutest little bell-ringer!  Annnd...she predicted it, way back freshman year!   ...
