Meet William

Laura Susan and I are an aunt and uncle!!! My sister Elizabeth had William last Monday. He was 9 lbs 13oz and is so cute! Here are some pics of him

Resting and Waiting

Rest vs. wait. These two words bring two completely different scenarios to my mind.

Rest = I am in the mountains... breathing in cool air... amidst a beautiful display of autumn leaves... at peace...

Wait = I am tapping my fingers on the table... anxious to find out what will come... and when will it come...

I was reading Psalm 62 this morning, and God (once again) rocked my world. I have read NIV most of my life, which begins the chapter with ...

My soul finds rest in God alone

So imagine my surprise as I open my ESV Bible (which, by the way, is pink... awesome) and I read...

For God alone my soul waits in silence

WHAT?!?!

God, are you saying that I am to rest while I am waiting?! Wait for you while I am resting!?

Today, Lord, as I wait for you to answer, I will trust, and I will rest.

Talented Cousins

I wanted to give a shout-out to my cousin Zach, who is playing his fiddle with Craig Morgan, a country artist ("That's What I Like about Sunday").

Below is a clip from their performance at the Grand Ole Opry, where Craig was recently inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. You can see Zach on the far left.

Zach is super talented, and we are so grateful to have him as part of our family. He played the violin in our wedding, and it was beautiful!! Below is a picture of his wife, my cousin LeMoyne, and their son Jake.

Teaching Jake to play... how precious!

Some Day My Prince Will Come...

He's here!
