Pond Photo op!

Thank you Julie for sending me another picture! Here is Grace with Abby and Gabbie.

Thankful Thursday

*I am thankful for the friendships I have..I love my church family!

*I love waking to "good morning Momma".

*I love that Jeffrey is so tender with Cassie contracting. He rubs her arm and tells her, "it will be alright".

*I am thankful the doctor had something good to tell Cassie today! 1.5 cm and 90% effaced!

*I am thankful for all the little hugs I got today from Jeffrey and the Vaughan kiddos. Just love them all!

*I am thankful that tomorrow is Friday and I get to pick Grace up from camp!

*I am thankful and love the thunderstorm we are getting...smells so good outside.

What are you thankful for today?

My lil' man

This kid cracks me up! He can be so shy and yet around us...look out! Jeffrey is such a blessing and a little turd at the same time. Trying to get a picture of him..well he would only give me his fake smile...so being a Mom who knows how to make her boy laugh...or any boy for that matter. Here is Jeffrey's true smile after me saying...poo poo! What is it with boys and potty humor?

Big Belly!

I love pregnant belly's! Especially this one! So here she is Miss Cassie at 37 weeks today. A.K.A Big Belly as Jeffrey has so named her!

Pond Time!

Grace loves pond time at Kidder Creek and my dear friend Julie who lives right there sent me some pictures of Grace enjoying just that...pond time.Let me tell you in this heat I bet those kids never want to get out! Thank you Julie you made this Mommy's day! I miss my sweet girl. It seems like she has been gone forever with having two camps back to back and then I stayed home with Cassie on Sunday so my in laws dropped her off for me. Oh to get that girl in these arms again....come on Friday!!!

Cassie Update

Just wanted to give everyone an update on Cassie. She is still contracting nothing new to report other than that. Just early labor that she hopes will either stop or actually turn into something. We would appreciate any and all prayers. She and RW talk everyday and so he is up to date on the situation.

Baby update

As some may know Cassie has been having contractions since early Sunday morning. They continue to come and it looks like this will be the case until her body says it's time for the baby. There is no need to stop the labor because she is at full term however she is very tired having done this for so many hours already. This could go for a few days or weeks like this. We would appreciate prayers for Cassie and the baby but also for RW who is so far away and can't do a thing. She is not answering her phone except to RW at this point. She just is not in the mood to talk and anybody that knows Cassie doesn't want to talk to her then anyway! We will let you all know when there is news.

Camp #1

Grace came home today from her first of two camps this summer. She can't stop talking about how much fun she had swimming in the river and seeing tad poles, frogs, an eel, craw fish and a water snake! She loved the tent devotion time and the memory verses. However, she was most excited about telling me who came to Christ. I love seeing kids on fire for the Lord!! On our way home today Grace and my girlfriends son sang the worship songs from camp to us with Jeffrey joining in! So cute!

Thank you to all the adults and youth who made this possible. You are all such blessings!

Above is a craft they did at camp with the memory verse.... Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
