Here are some pics from the new house...



These are just a few. It is so fun to have the girls come over and play in the big front room. They run around and around!

Goodbye Gainesville...hello Inverness!



We are grateful and excited to be living in Inverness for a short time. Thanks to Mom and Dad's generosity we have a sweet new house! This is really going to spoil us though...I don't know how we are ever going to go back to an apartment. I was lucky to have little Annie Mae help me move out the last day.

It was quite an adventure. I learned that food solves all problems...I will remember that one!

Tender Mercies and Guardian Angels

We were in a restaurant tonight w/ Kaley and John and the girls. Anna Mae started choking on a chip--and before long had started turning blue. Brian started trying to solve the problem but her little body was becoming more and more limp and finally she was passing out. I started at first whispering and then almost screaming for help--and within a few seconds a nurse came forward. She knew the right thing to do and had a sense of calmness about her. She quickly pounded on Annastyn's back--and the little chip came flying out! Annastyn started crying--and it was like that first cry you hear when a new baby enters the world! The little restaurant was very tiny and we were soooo blessed that there was someone that could save our little one's life. The nurse was visiting from out-of-town. The paramedic checked her out--and she's fine. She went right back to eating--and eventually we had to send the chips back--because she was so insistent to eat another chip.

A song that they just presented at time out for Women last Saturday--came to mind . . . I didn't like it at the time--but when this instance happened it was all I could think of:

God hear my praise, Lord hear my thanks, Sweet day of Grace when Jesus came to save me, God almighty hear my praise!

I am so thankful that I was able to come home with my two little girls, and that God has allowed Annastyn's sweet sweet spirit to remain with us!

Thanks for your love and support!

Christmas 2006 at Grammie's house


We have some walls in our house



Today (Jan 31) they started building the walls for our house! Here's what a day's work looks like for the Masons! This is the view from the street--and it's just the wall for the first floor (the second story will be framed).

Last week we spent the week watching our house fill up with Sand! Dad did the calculation--there is a BUNCH of Sand in this house (something like 50 loads!)
