Celebrating babies!

Wednesday night, our Bible study crew threw a little shower for the two families in the group who are the closest to having new baby girls. Now there are two more families expecting, both girls, but we have a little more time till they arrive. So for now, we just spent some time anticipating Evelyn and Josie's arrivals, playing games, laughing hysterically, sharing our own baby delivery stories, and of course EATING...a party just wouldn't be complete without the food!

And once again, Jeremy and I walk away from a night spent with terrific friends thinking, Whoa...is God good and gracious and faithful, or what? These folks are fantastic. Some we have gotten to know better than others but we are excited to get to know everyone even more, to learn each of their stories, and to let God use our pasts, presents, and futures together for his Kingdom! Each and every Momma, Daddy and baby...we already love and look forward to growing more closely together. Thanks for letting us spend time with you.

The guys race to see who drinks most efficiently from a bottle.


And the winner is...Brian Edwards!


Meanwhile, Jeremy practices the art of being a baby...eyes closed and all.
