Josh's Book!!!

Can I tell you how proud I am of my husband? He just finished his first book!! A few years ago the Lord guided Josh to dig deeper into the book of Revelation. Josh became engulfed in the Lord's Word and realized that how you interpret scripture (your hermeneutic) needs to be consistent throughout all of scripture. He taught a class at our church two years ago and has been working to compile his notes into a book form. I encourage you to take the time to read this excellent book! Check out the link on the right to order your copy today!!! Blessings to you all!

Last Weekend!

Here are a couple pics from last weekend. We traveled up to Glacier on Saturday and hiked 6 miles with the girlies. They did great and Maggie walked about 5.5 miles (her personal best!!). Daisy walked almost a whole mile, uphill! We hiked to a small lake and Maggie played in the water while Daisy took a quick nap. These girls are too much fun!

Colorado Friends!

Two weeks ago we had a delightful visit from some friends who used to live in MT and have moved back down to Colorado. Erica and I decided to throw on our "Super Mommy Capes" and take our four kids (under four yrs old) on a hike in Glacier Park! The kiddos did fantastic and we only had to carry the two older girls a 1/4 mile (they walked 3 miles!).  Magnolia had a wonderful time hiking with her friend Annika and I thoroughly enjoyed some girl time with Erica. We miss you Erica, Annika, and Aaron!!!
We made it!!
Lunch break!
Love my girlies!
I love this pic of the girls...they had so much fun!

NC Trip Part 2

After visiting with Josh's family we headed over to Kannapolis to see the Efird's! We took a quick trip to the beach with my sister's family and Nana & Papaw. The kids had a blast playing in the sand and water. Daisy still wasn't a fan of the beach, she is a "mountain girl," as Josh likes to say!
Ready to go!!

Movie break in the hotel!

Fred loved playing in the ocean!

Toby had no fear!!

Sweet Amelia Rose!

Magnolia enjoyed digging in the sand.

NC Trip, Part 1

The past two weeks we spent time in NC visiting with our family.  Here are some of our favorite pics from our time in East Bend and the beach with Nana and Papa D!  Magnolia had a wonderful time playing in the ocean, going to the Aquarium, and picking blueberries!  Stay tuned for Part 2 of our NC trip!
Pretty sure half of Magnolia's pickings are in her belly! ;)

Daisy enjoyed looking at all the fish!

Daisy wouldn't put her feet down...she prefers carpet to sand!
