And I pray that you, being rooted in love, may
have power, together with all the saints,
to grasp how wide and long and high
and deep is the love of Christ,
and to know this love surpasses knowledge- that you
may be filled to the measure of fullness of God
Eph. 3:17-19

Naughty or Nice



Our first Christmas card photo shoot was cut short when Sam got into a fight with a yellowjacket. The yellowjacket won.
Christmas card photo shoot take-two was just as eventful, but at least no one was injured.
As you can see my boys felt right at home with the photographer.
So thankful for Maggie's patience.
She's a Rockstar!

What we've been up to........
























My first born is a ball player and we couldn't be prouder!!!

In regular season play, Brooks' team was the 8yr old League Champs! Way to go Astros!
MRYC had 3 8yr old All Star teams and Brooks was a member of the MRYC Fire.
After two tournaments the 3 three All Star teams merged and became the MRYC Vipers.
Brooks finished his season today as a Viper.
We've got the fever and can't wait for some more tournament ball!!

Possessions.....

Are you so focused on what you don't have that you are blind to what you do?

You have a ticket to heaven no thief can take,
an eternal home no divorce can break.
Every sin of your life has been cast to the sea.
Every mistake you've made is nailed to the tree.
You're blood-bought and heaven-made.
A child of God--forever saved.
So be grateful, joyful--for isn't it true?
What you don't have is much less than what you do.
From Max Lucado's "A Love Worth Giving"

Naked Butts and Hair Cuts

Naked butt..........
One of Tucker's favorite things to do for quite sometime now, is to
take off his pants and diaper.
He'll want to kill me for this oneday, but I just love that little butt!

Trying to put his daiper back on, but he gives up and throughs it down. Then someone has to catch him so you can get the diaper and pants back on. Sometimes we do this numerous times before he gives up.

A big boy hair cut......

This is his "cheese" face, and all his curls before his big boy hair cut.


Big baby blues and a big boy hair cut!
It may look like his curls are gone, but its still curling up in the back.

Confession

Do I really need to confess to what few readers I have? Sure, I don't, but I think I need to for me. It helps to "write" it down. Now on to the confession, I am having trouble trusting God. ( Sorry to those of you who thought you might be getting a real scoop :)

I still believe that the Lord has put me here in this place with purpose. But I'm having trouble trusting that its gonna work out. The anxiety and pain that has come along with my knee surgery is quite overwhelming.

Before this I never really thought about the actually steps I take and how easily I could get from one place to another. Or how effortless it was to bend my knees. Now as I'm working through all this, every single step is contemplated and every bend of my knee is painful yet calculated. My how we don't realize that we take things for granted. I see folks in wheel chairs and I just can't stand it. I don't know wether to feel sorry for them or blessed that I will get back to normal.

I'm tired of asking for help. I'm sick of needing help!!!

wha wha wha!!

My new Bible study starts Thursday and I'm really looking forward to it. I've felt so lost without it. And I can't wait to get to Mass on Sunday. It will be my first since surgery.
