Author Archives: admin SOO…tonight was African Family Fellowship night at our house! We TRY our best to get together once a month when we can. AND although it is crazy for everyone to come probably–I will speak for the crew and say we really think it’s worth it! While we were in the adoption process–we looked at other […]  Spring is in the air–and there is nothing more fun than getting the kids out and doing something as a family…AND with friends!!! Do you ever think, “Gosh–I want to do SOMETHING for the sake of orphans…but I’m not sure what WE could do?!” Well, here is an AMAAAZZIIIIINNNG (AMAZING!) opportunity!!! Children (young and old;) […] I love watching you do life so beautifully! We’re doing cupcake sales in Missouri! We are hosting one April 15th at Guardian Angel Preschool in Florida 🙂 We are getting as many families and children involved as possible, both in making and buying!!!! We’re having a sale with all of my neighbors in Birmingham on April 16!! Can’t wait!  BASEBALL One of my FAVORITE seasons has begun!!! The one that starts with a B!!! BASEBALL SEASON! I just love it!!! And this past Saturday was P’s first game of the season! He is 6 years old, and they skip t-ball in this particular league and only pull the tee out if you miss the […] I DO love your new picture wall!! You have inspired me. Too many of my pics have been up for way too long! And, I love the pics like the one of Frank too. He won’t make those faces forever, and you don’t want to forget. Your home looks so inviting. Very calming! Where did you get Laney’s dress? My girl would love that! Laney wears the cutest clothes! you are so fun! you inspire me! Can’t wait to see ya’ll this weekend!!!! Your sweet girl looks BEAUTIFUL! What a fun date! I love your picture wall, too.. LOVE it! Baseball and home deco.  You might want to come just a WEE bit early for an afternoon designed for adoption moms…followed by the Desperation Band for worship—and the kick-off vision with Tom Davis. Soooo…if coming to the Summit was on your RADAR…I’d LOVE to meet you at THIS… Visit www.christianalliancefororphans.org for more details on the Summit and to register […] Hey!, I was SO excited to see your name on this the other day. 🙂 We’re “planning” to come early so I can attend this special afternoon event. Would love to connect with you. Blessings!, Shelly Hey there!! I have followed your blog via Kristi Johnson for a long time…I comment from time to time, but mostly just love reading your posts. I have a heart for the orphan…I am not sure if that will lead my husband and I to adoption or if we will just continue to donate to the cause–but I pray that all works out how HE has planned. But today–your post sparked something in my brain…you are coming to Louisville, KY!! That is where I live and we attend Southeast Christian Church!! How very cool—such a very small world. I am sure you already have a room, etc–but know if you need anything at all there are friendly faces in the area–also Kristi’s little sister, Karson, (my college roommate) also lives here now too!! Ohhhhhh I wish I was going!! I’ll either be in Africa or broke from saving to go to Africa.  It’s time for some SPRING cleaning…so I asked my Facebook friends for organization tips…which led me to the book store buying the book Organized Simplicity. I’m following her guide to de-cluttering, and I’m starting with the family room. Really–you do NOT want to hear details or see pictures! It’s a mess:). SOOO…I thought I’d help […] Thanks for the brussell sprout recipe! Do you have to use fresh or will frozen work? Looove all the tips! We don’t have our little one yet…but maybe I will surprise my hubby with some fun 😉 Much love, hahahah… that is hilarious about the Wasabi peas! 🙂 Love your tips. I looked everywhere for gold coins last year that the kids could wake up to that the “leprachauns left”… and I was way too late! So this year I’m on the ball with those, but had not thought of the jello! 🙂 And YES, we want to see before and after shots of your house so you can help the rest of us with kiddie stuff everywhere to get organized! I am so glad you posted that question on FB because now I’m getting her blog updates and have her book on my Amazon list to buy later. Thanks! 🙂 |

Oh my stinkin’ goodness – Mr. Silas is SUPER cute!
WOW! That is one BIG group! What a HUGE blessing to have so many like-minded families right in your area!
What a blessing to see how God grew this community after His own heart!
This just fills my sometimes depleted heart up! It is times like today when God brings yet another family into our lives who is in such desperate need that I just want to cry. The need sometimes seems so great & I wonder why, God, why? Then I read your blog (& His Word). Then the Ah-ha moment! Then I remember that with GOD all things truly ARE possible & no need is too great for HIM! These stories & seeing God work in so many lives to glorify him make it all worth it. He uses weakness for his glory. Love, love, love to see the amazing ways God brings people together to show that he really can move mountains! I soo needed this today!!!
That is wonderful. We prayed for all of the families last night. I can’t wait to join in at the next one. And, Silas is such a hoot. So adorable. 🙂
Oh I LOVE these pictures and am so sorry we missed it! Life has been SO full…just can’t seem to do it all. This is so special though…hoping the crazy calendar will allow us to come to the next one! 🙂
so fun! i LOVE african fellowship night!!
did not realize there were so many families there! LOVE IT!
