Baby Addison - updated

Please pray for our friends Carrie, Aron, and their daughter Addison. As of right now she is scheduled to have a liver transplant on Wednesday morning at 4 am. The surgery will last somewhere from 12 - 20 hours. Carrie & I have been friends since I was in middle school and I can not tell you how heavily their story has weighed on my heart. Also, please do not forget to pray for the donor's family. I can not even begin to imagine the heartache they are experiencing. Thanks for your prayers!


Update...

I just wanted to let you know that Addison is out of surgery and back in her room resting. The surgery lasted a little over 12 hours and the doctors felt that it went really well. They were not able to close her incision all the way due to swelling but said that is not uncommon and will try again on Friday. Thank you so much for praying with me for this family!! Please continue to remember them as Carrie and Addison will remain in Miami for at least 6 weeks while she recovers and Aron and their big kids will be back and forth between home, school, work, and Miami.

In that day they will say, "Surely this is our God; we trusted in him and he saved us. This is the Lord, we trusted in him; let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation." Isaiah 25: 9

Two!

On August 2nd the Buddy Boy turned 2! He was and still is so incredibly proud of himself over this achievement.   Caiden is the most perfect combination of all boy and sweet and snuggly toddler that there ever could be! He loves trucks and balls, throws caution to the wind, and has a stubborn streak that isn't going anywhere. He adores his daddy more than I can explain, loves to get kisses from mommy and wants to do everything his big sister does. We never knew how much we needed this little boy until he arrived and we are so humbled and blessed because we were chosen to be his mommy and daddy.   How can we thank God enough for you in return for all the joy we have in the presence of our God because of you?   1 Thessalonians 3:9  

10 years

Today Matt & I are celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary! Part of me can hardly believe that it's already been 10 years. I can still remember so many details of that time in our lives. The joy and excitement of the wedding and anticipation for the future. And another part of me knows that 10 years is not that long at all. We've only just begun!   We did not get any digital images from our wedding photographer (it was a different time back in 2003) but a friend took these and gave them to me.   One of my favorite parts of our ceremony was that we signed a covenant. Matt & I signed first and then both of our family's came up and signed. It was a really special part of our ceremony.         I am so thankful for these past 10 years with my best friend! When Matt & I met at a mutual friend's house 12 years ago I never could have imagined all that God had planned. But through it all - the victories and...

AdeG & KK

AdeG & KK: Partners in Crime     They love each other so much!     They can make each other laugh just by breathing...   When Adelyn gets her picture taken...   ...Caiden thinks he needs to have his picture taken.   This is how everyone walks their dog...right?     AdeG & KK - I love you!     Btw...   "AdeG" is a silly nickname for Adelyn that came about from a question like this - "What would my name be if you spelled it a-d-e-g?"   Whenever we do call her AdeG she laughs and says "my name's not AdeG!"    "KK" is what Caiden says when you ask him to say his name. :)
