2 Samuel 22:47

Ellie grabs the boys hands to hold them.
Three in a row

I am sooo blessed! And thankful that Ellie's dates have to go through her Big Brothers who adore her.
“The Lord lives, and blessed be my rock, and exalted be my God, the rock of my salvation,."

The kids had a blast on this rock, and I was really comforted by the fact that Elijah, had remembered that his God was the rock of his salvation. As he told me this verse as we were walking by it. We love playing in all the parks around here.

Little Lady

Here is my 22 month old looking like such a big girl, The kids and I went to Rockwood Reservations as we do most often but today we took a few pics. Oh, and yes those are my pearls the little girly girl did want to wear them today, it makes me snicker, with those curls she looks like....Lucy from "I love Lucy".

Breaking the Bread

Cheers!

I could make something yummy to go on my dragon dessert plates!

Here is my favorite Amazing Dragon platter, I got for my 26th birthday
I love an asian influence in my decor

Here is our quaint little dining room set(with a Vincent van Gogh touch), come eat with us...

Dear Loved Ones,

Although our home is not Elizabeth Bennett's: Pemberley it is however, Elizabeth Lloyd's and Patrick and I would like to open up our home to you. We want to fellowship with you, it is our fervent prayer to develop a deeper relationship with all of you. We want to open up our home and have a dinner together, and enjoy your company. Please if you are reading this blog entry...please let us know when it would be convenient for your family to come and dine with us. We love you all, and have a desire to break bread with you and to deepen our relationship with you. In saying that Patrick and I just bought a little bistro counter height table so we may fellowship with you all. The table we had before was not safe, (my amazing garage sale find) Just wait until you come over, I will show you all of my Goodwill, garage sale finds!!!

Blog, Blog Where art thou Blog?

So I have been completely consumed with my new job. Working every moment I have free time, has taken away all of my blogging time, and at my job I do not have any access to a computer at all. Going cold turkey from my computer has been tough, not to mention the separation anxiety I feel from my children.

There have been so many things I have wanted to blog about Including:

My dear sweet Erin, her marriage, and wedding to amazing Michael whom we adore. So excited about our camping trip in the future dear friends.

Our NEW mini van!! yes!! Excitement!! I LOVE MINI VANS!!! What a huge blessing this is for our family!!

How like everyone I know right now is pregnant, and I not about to join that club right now.

Wanting to go back to Nursing School, and how I want our Pastor's wife to go into it with me.

SOOO excited that the Clubb's house is almost finished, and how I want to sit and cry with Karen, over some of the frustration.

How Patrick has ripped out our shower, and now we don't have one downstairs!

How working is really hard, being away from my children and not at all what I had planned for MY life.

How Patrick and I have been enjoying our patio this summer with twinkle lights and a light dinner, and or drink before bed time.

How I want to for some zany reason go to the: New kids on the block concert

RETAIL HORRORS

God's great graces, and how I need his grace to go to work

Our terrible raccoon issues

How I am so thrilled and blessed that my children get great quality time with Mimi and Grandadd and their love for us to serve us this way.

My husband and I just turned Eight years Old, last month and it went by so fast I don't even think we did anything.

I am enjoying teaching Sunday School to the primary class at church

Put Me In Coach

A Baseball Cheerleader! Go Wijah!!

There is a hustling #6 (Elijah) running to first, after contemplating after hitting the ball.

Go Red Sox!!

Okay, so along with Patrick's day job, he also is a Head coach of a t-ball team every Saturday. He is so gifted with these kid's Pat is patient, and enjoys kids so much. He is coaching Elijah's first t-ball experience and Elijah just LOVES it! Also Noah gets to play a little, and our nephews are also on the team so it makes it super fun for everyone. With me working every Saturday, I have not gotten a chance to really enjoy the experience (you know the giggling, hysterically) etc. Pat really is enjoying himself, and ideally we would enjoy season tickets to the Cardinals, we are enjoying the Red Sox, for now.

Bright, Bright Sunshiney Day

Ellie Faith just had to play in the flowers. What can make you happier than a field of God's beautiful sunny flowers, of course watching my blessing of a daughter play in the sunshine adoring the flowers. We had a beautiful picnic with my parents, Paw paw and Nina, after church on Sunday, where we shared an amazing lunch and strolled in the park, and went to the sunflower patch. As I lay in pain now, I realize just how blessed I am to get out and about, and to spend such time with people I love. It really is to bad, that sometimes we don't see it, until we weather a little suffering.
