Zeke, Adalynn, and Lily Faith: Celebrating Lily Faith and Adalynn!!

February was a very busy, but blessed month. Gregg had to go on a long work trip, so the children and I spent part of that time in Johns Creek with family and friends. My mom hosted a shower for Lily Faith and we celebrated Adalynn's birthday. We were able to visit with many friends and enjoyed our time there.

Lily Faith at 28 weeks!

Lily Faith's Shower

What a treat to have the opportunity to celebrate Lily Faith with friends and family in the Atlanta area. It was a fun experience because Zeke and Adalynn were there. They helped me open the gifts and certainly added excitement to the afternoon!!

We enjoyed spending time with Wynna and Papa and were able to see some friends too!

We were blessed with the chance to visit with my dear friend Kristen, and her husband, Morten, and daughter, Vega. It was too short, but so much fun!

Adalynn Turns 3!!!

We decided to celebrate over lunch with the family at the Atlanta Athletic Club. As I mentioned above, Sophia was sick, so we missed her and Jami. Adalynn had a great time at church and lunch. Then, we were able to celebrate with Daddy when we returned home.

Kariss' decadent dessert!

A horse she had picked out at Hobby Lobby, but didn't know she was getting!

This girl loves horses and cowboys/cowgirls. Her face says it all!

Didn't get Wynna and Jared in one, but here is some of the group!

My loves (missing Gregg)

They are almost exactly the same height! Adorable.

Valentine's Day

In an effort to catch up, I'll go ahead and post our Valentine's pictures as I close. We had a party at Classical Conversations. I forgot to get a picture of our Valentine's for Zeke's class. I printed an acrostic that used John 3:16 and written vertically was Valentine. We gave pencils with a world eraser...for God so loved the world!

The printout we used, but used pencils instead of the keychains!

Zeke and I did the "God's love is...." treasure hunt again this year. It was wonderful because he is now able to read the verses in the Bible. We learned how God's love is unconditional, unchanging, everlasting, etc. I would hide a heart with a description and verse each morning, Zeke would find it, then we would look them up together.
