Wedding Venue

Two words we never thought we'd use in connection with our home: wedding venue...
An expedited landscaping project and we were ready to go....


 Saturday wedding rehearsal...









 A picture of "before" the landscaping project...
 Sunday worship pre-wedding...
 Meanwhile, back in Kentucky... James blending in with his cousins (and loving it!)
 Time for the wedding: Sunday evening...
 Bride and bridesmaids getting ready...

 Flower girls and Bible bearer ready to go...
 Praying over the groom...
 Mothers and babies viewing room (inside the air conditioning)...

 Laura the wedding director extraordinaire...
 Groom...
 Musicians...





 Mr. & Mrs. Justin Bailey!



 Reception: food, folks and fun...
 Deck (a.k.a. dance floor)...


 Titus hanging out with his neighbor, Buddy, during the wedding...
 Tony breaking it down...
 Tony and Chip: brothers from different mothers...
 The day after...
It was a beautiful wedding and we were blessed to be a part of it, but don't foresee our home becoming a regular wedding venue (ha ha)...

    I got interesting information about downtown la venues which are best and good to celebrate and enjoy the function. I booked this for my friend's ceremony function.

Struggleville. Population: Me.

Several years ago, a few friends and I used the above description amongst ourselves when we were wrestling with various things going on in our lives.  Struggleville was definitely where I was living last week and continue to try to drive out of this week…  Get in my rearview mirror, please! I can only share in generalities, so I hope you will get the big idea.  Here's the nutshell: parenting is hard.  (I know, biggest understatement of the year!)  Parenting children with unknown pasts is challenging.  Parenting is a weighty honor and a role I desire to steward faithfully.  The reality is, I don't have any idea what I'm doing and I cannot do it in my own strength...  Two weeks ago, I spoke at a local church's Mothers of Pre-Schoolers (MOPS) gathering.  Last fall, when I was originally asked to speak I had planned on sharing about "Teaching Justice to Children."  After the new year, I began to feel the Lord leading me to share ...

Oh for grace to trust Him more...

I love this picture... It was taken during our six week adoption stretch in Ukraine.  This little one was 7 years old in the picture.  Can you believe that we will celebrate four years home this May?!.  Most days I feel like she and all her siblings have always been with us.  Other days I wonder, "where did you come from?!."  Ha ha ha...  We have our ups and downs...  We take one step forward and two steps back...   'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus Just to take Him at His Word Just to rest upon His promise And to know, "Thus saith the Lord!" Jesus, Jesus how I trust Him! How I've proved Him o'er and o'er; Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus! Oh for grace to trust Him more! Oh, how sweet to trust in jesus, Just to trust His cleansing blood; And in simple faith to plunge me 'Neath the healing, cleansing flood! Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus, Just from sin and self to cease; Just from Jesus simply taking ...

To blog or not to blog, that is the question...

Thankfully, my pondering is a bit lighter than that of Shakespeare's Hamlet .  The last blog post I managed to put together was nearly eight months ago!  Can it be?  I suppose turning forty had something to do with wanting to hit the pause button, to freeze time, to be still and reflect.  Alas, the days kept moving along at a pace that at times seemed too quick to remain in step.  So here I sit, considering what to share, whether to continue sharing through this platform, and the possible frequency at which to share.  Meanwhile, I'll reenter the bloggersphere with a few experiences gone by... "We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain, where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek." Hebrews 6:19-20       Sister tats : In honor of my baby sister's birthday last August, we four girls decided ...
