more pics of thanksgiving and our FIRST SNOW!!

















As you can see we had a fun day in the snow... okay so maybe just a couple minutes :) We got allie a new snow suit and boots so we had to try them out. Allie wasn't so sure about it all and did not like the cold snow. We got some cute videos and enjoyed her first real experience of snow. We had such a great thanksgiving. Gramps surprised us and flew out for a visit! It was so exciting. We had so much fun hiking, bowling, and playing games. Allie was a ham as always but is still trying to get over this awful cold and cough. Her uncle Nate successfully adjusted her so he thinks it should help with the cough... hopefully! We are getting excited now for our next trip which is to D.C to visit Granny and Opa at their house! First time for Allie!

Hello there.. sorry it has taken so long to put up some pictures from halloween this week as been a crazy one to say the least. Allie has had a cold and cough for about a week now so I have been trying to nurse her back to health... Other than that things are going well here. Allie is bigger than ever. I brought her to the doctor on monday to check out her cough and she is 3o and a half inches long! She is one talllll lady! and she weighs almost 23 pounds. Needlesstosay she is growing out of Lots of clothes. As you can see from the pics we had a great time on halloween. I dressed charlie up as peter pan (yes that costume is homemade so its not the best!) and Bubba as hook.. Everyone had a great laugh when they came to our porch. We probably had about 250-300 trick-or-treaters. Fun night. Rob and I are enjoying a slow week. We have a lot of nights free which doesn't normally happen to us so we are enjoying them! We are looking forward to a nice weekend. We are watching my neighbors little girl overnight on friday who is a month younger than allie so its Allie's first sleepover! :)
Funny thing that Allie has started to do is she is obsessed with any kind of ball may it be tennis ball, golf ball, fooseball ect. Yesterday she was walking around the house with a tennis ball container in her hand collecting all the balls she could find in the house.. It was too funny. She would get soo excited when she would actually find one and put it in the container. I think I just laugh all day at her.

more prayers

My beautiful friend Haley lost her baby girl last night during surgery. Molly went to be with our precious Jesus. So I ask you for continued prayers for Haley and her family as they struggle through this time. We know that Molly is now looking into the face of Christ with no ailments or tubes and what a blessing that is, but unfortunately she left her mom behind. Haley has always had amazing strength from God so I ask for you to continue to cover her in prayers so that she can gain continued strength and peace that only the Lord can provide. What an amazing God we have, one who can grant peace and joy that covers even the biggest, seemingly impossible, hurts.

Please Pray


My friend Haley from college has a beautiful little girl named Molly. Unfortunately Molly was born with this horrible condition called megacystis microcolon intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome. In smaller terms she doesn't have working intestines, or a working bladder. The doctors did not think she would make it full term let alone the first week yet molly is now 3 months old. But she is now needing a multi-organ transplant which includes her stomach, pancreas, liver, and small bowel. Haley has now headed up to nebraska cause they were accepted into the transplant program and they have them ready so they left today. I am unsure of the exact time of the surger but it is VERY soon so please please pray for her little daughter and her family. She has shared her amazing story on her blog http://littlemissmollyann.blogspot.com/ if you would like to hear about what the Lord is doing in her amazing little girl. I would just ask you to shower them with prayer that God would have His hand on her as she goes through this long surgery and her body would be strong. My friend Haley has strength from the Lord that I has truly amazed me. Thank you for your prayers. Much love.
