4. Sweet potato or pumpkin pie? Pumpkin Pie with vanilla ice cream! sweet patato is good to!

5. Do you believe that turkey leftovers are a curse, or the point of the whole thing? Defintally the whole point! I love me a turkey sandwich the next day! Oh I cant wait! I am not a huge left over fan but thanksgiving left overs are the best! Why do we only make this meal once a year? lol

What a beautiful day!
November 16th 2009.... Malachi was dedicated this morning by Pastor Tommy Carpenter! What a blessing he truly blessed us! He gave me a dozen red roses and said that a mothers love is as sweet as a bundle of red roses and the red representing the blood of Jesus who is the whole reason we have this miracle child! And also gave us a baby blue bible for Malachi with his name on it....
This was such a honor, I cried because like the bible says for this child I have prayed! And I can honestly say that before he was even concieved he was loved and wanted and prayed for!! I am just so blessed to have him and everyday is a reminder of how amazing Gods love is to us!

We decided long before he was in our lives that we will raise our children to love and serve God with all there hearts! and I am so honored to be able to do that! being Malachis mom is the most amazing privilage God has given me!


I love you Baby!

Beautiful Day

 
 
 
 

 

 

 

 

It was such a beautiful Fall day today I took Malachi outside for some Fall Pictures! I love the way they turned out! I love this time of year the way the air feels crisp and all the bright colors and I love my yard full of leaves...I know most people rake them I love to leave them all over the yead...although I am dying to rake them into a pile and put Malachi in the pile for a pic! lol ... I just think God is the most amazing artist! Hope you have a wonderful day in the Lord! Remember to Thank Him for all you have and all he has done in your life for with out him we are nothing!
