Troy

This is from the night we got Troy :)
Love you all!

It's a boy!

Well we made an addition to the family on Friday.... We adopted a phantom poodle the named Troy. His full name is TROY AIKMAN THE OREO QUATERBACK MOORE! :) We love names! I will post some pictures tonight of him when I get home! He is still cut like a poodle but we are growing his hair out! He is black and white and weighs about 12 pounds! He has the sweetest face... I love you all!

Thanks for all your Love and Support

We wanted to let each of you know how grateful we are for all
the love and support you always show us. In this crazy housing market especially in Marshall, we appreciate the time and effort taken to fast and pray in behalf of the MIRACLE it might take
to sell our house. You all mean the world to us and
we pray daily for your success and happiness.

It is like the wooden quote Steph gave me I have on my mantle:

JOY IS NOT FOUND IN THINGS...IT IS IN US.

We love you.

Family Fast

This Sunday we are asking that everyone in the family, take the time to fast that Mom and Dad's house might sell. Some of us have fasted in the past, but usually for a number of things, not just one thing in specific. I think that all of us, unified together, fasting for one purpose, with true intent, and sincere purpose, will make a difference. I know we are all out doing different things, and have different circumstances, but I believe the Lord knows the intents of our hearts, and that he will bless us. Please join us in fasting this Sunday and let's see if we can get a miracle! Thanks everyone! Much love!

"We observe that in the scriptures, fasting almost always is linked with prayer. Without prayer, fasting is not complete fasting; it’s simply going hungry. If we want our fasting to be more than just going without eating, we must lift our hearts, our minds, and our voices in communion with our Heavenly Father. Fasting, coupled with mighty prayer, is powerful. It can fill our minds with the revelations of the Spirit. It can strengthen us against times of temptation." James E. Faust

"If we fast..... the Lord promises:
“Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; …
“Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. …
“And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday:
“And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, … and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not” (Isa. 58:8–11)."
-Carl P. Pratt of the seventy

Memphis Zoo

The Memphis Zoo was a really wonderful place. I think it rates #1 for our Zoo adventures this year.
And with our going to 4 Zoos in 4 states, that is saying something.
It had lions (which we even witnessed roaring),
polar bears (which we saw being fed), hippo's (which we also saw being fed,it wasn't pretty!.)
and such cute penguins. The sea lion show was great as well. The girls loved it.
Check out the animals that look a lot like Lainey and Grampy.
I guess the question is now, which zoo next?

Lainey's B-day

Such a sweet natured and beautiful 1 year old.
She loved the candies on her cupcakes, and
apparently the trauma of birthday cakes is minor now. lol
Chucky Cheese was a hit I think the kids, all 4 of them, (guess which 4 of us;) )
were very entertained.
It was very worth the drive if only for the squeezes!

Happy 1st Birthday Lainey Bug!

Happy First Birthday Sweet Lainey Bug

Are you bigger than a Cabbage Patch yet? Maybe not;)

We love you sweet peanut.
