Ready to jump in

The last several days have been a whirlwind of excitement!! We started the festivities Wednesday night at Life Group, and it was a great way to start this special occasion!  They were so sweet to give us this wonderful frame filled with verses that they all contributed.  Then they prayed over us and sang over us and it was so neat to feel God's spirit among us and speaking to us.  We are so blessed to have found such a wonderful community to enter into.




Today we went to my BFF's home where me and Tanna and Laura got to spend the afternoon swimming and talking and catching up.  The kids did great all playing together and it was such a relaxing afternoon.  Here they all are...5 girls and 5 boys!!!




This evening was spent with my family.  My mom always has the more gorgeous table décor for any party and tonight it was all Texas Rangers!  We had BBQ and cake and ice cream and even gifts!  We specifically said "no gifts" but they all had a gift for us!!

We had a big gift wrapped in a blanket to start things off...

They were Rangers Stadium seats!!!



We then opened all of our gifts from our new seats!  Richard got a stadium blanket.

I got a cute VS Rangers shirt.

The framed certificate for our authentic Rangers seats!

A wonderful frame collage from my grandmother.

And a huge Rangers Stadium canvas to hang on the wall that is gorgeous!!



Amber made me this fall wreath that is so beautiful with the gold and brown.

We also got to celebrate my grandmothers birthday which was special, too!!  Happy Birthday GG!!




I feel we are definitely prayed up and anticipating tomorrow.  We feel so blessed with all the people that God has placed in our lives that will make tomorrow even more special!

We are ready to take the "jump" into a fun loving, God fearing family of 7!!
