TWENTY NINE!! Already??

I just celebrated my 29th birthday this weekend, 29 REALLY?? Where has the time gone? I feel like I am still just a kid maybe 18-19 somewhere in there, then it hits me....no I am a 29 year old wife with soon to be two kiddos! WOW I'm a grown up! LOL To celebrate my birthday this year Jim-Britt asked if I would like to get a hotel room on Friday & just get a little mini vacation for the night just the three of us. We decided to go to the Gaylord Texan it was such a beautiful hotel. We were both just in awe of how huge that place is. After check in we ordered a pizza & they said it would be about an hour so we walked around the gorgeous lobby area. Sadie loved the little town with the train that went around it, they had several train exhibits. They also have a mini river walk that is very pretty, we had a great view from our room of the sports area that had a HUGE screen where they played the games. It was a very relaxing nice way to kick off my birthday weekend. Saturday I spent the day with my mom, Lindsey, her mom Kathy & Margaret dress shopping for Lindsey's big day in December! We had such a good time with the girls & a very yummy lunch that night! It was a great day that ended at Bruce & Margaret's with steak, potatoes & a football game. I love our friends & couldn't ask for better ones! Sunday we just took it easy at home until we went to eat that night for a birthday dinner at Spaghetti Warehouse (Mmmmm) with some family & friends. I appreciate all the calls & messages wishing me a happy birthday & those of you that were there to celebrate thank you! I love my family & friends you guys are awesome!! So one more year in my 20's, I'll enjoy it while it's here time seems to just fly by now days! Here are a few of the pics from the next AM.

Granbury Lake

My friend Tiffany & I took our kids to the awesome lake I was taking about a few post ago (with no pics of it) Granbury Lake on Saturday. We all had such a good time playing in the water & getting some sun. We packed lunchs & drinks & prepared for a fun few hours just hanging out. Her boys loved Sadie & the feeling was mutual. They entertained her the whole trip there & back, and were such great helpers with keeping up with her at the lake. We were kind of bummed the little water area that has fountains for kids to play in wasn't working but we still had a fantastic day! Here are a couple pics Tiff got with her phone of us & our kiddos:

Please pray;

As some of you may know we have some very dear friends, the Delgado's (read their story here; http://goodtimesdelgadostyle.blogspot.com/) that are in need of prayer. Vanessa is near the end of her pregnancy (29 weeks) with conjoined twins Melody & Madison. This family just amazes me with their dedication to our Lord, with all they are going through they just want God to be to glorified for whatever He has for these two precious babies. The prayer request they have listed on their blog is:
"The immediate prayer requests:
1) God would be glorified through all of this no matter what the outcome is
2) That God would heal the babies heart and that it would be strong enough to work for both of these babies
3) That their chest cavity would be fully developed and that their lungs would be fully developed and that our babies would be able to breath
4) That I would not go into pre-term labor
5) Wisdom for the doctors during my pregnancy and the birth of our babies
6) Wisdom for us, because of some hard ethical decision we may have to make in the future concerning the twins
7) We would be bold witness' for Christ during this time!"

Father,
I pray you wrap your loving arms around this family, give them strength & prepare their hearts for whatever your will is for these two wonderful little girls. I also pray for healing of both babies & that you are glorified by their lives no matter how long. Thank you for these little angels you created for they were fearfully & wonderfuly made. We give praise & thanks to you Almight God!

Girls (and Bryce) night out LOL

So Friday we (Sadie & I) went to Christmas in Cowtown with my mom, Margaret, Charlotte and her adorable baby boy Bryce. We had such a good time walking around looking at all the cute crafts & clothes they had. But my my they were VERY proud of their stuff $70.00 for a onesie that she will outgrow in an month or so?!?!? No way!!! The babies were soooo good, Sadie slept most of the time & Bryce was a good little shopper who stayed awake the whole time. Afterward Mom, me, Charlotte & the babies all went to have dinner at Chilis. It was great getting to visit with them both. It's alot of fun having friends with babies the same age as Sadie, makes me feel like a part of a very exclusive club. When they are crying other moms will just look at them with empathy then at you with a knowing glace it's kinda neat......All & all we had a fantastic time together, I look forward to many more girls & kiddos nights with my friends.
