We just returned from a great vacation in Hilton Head with Kurt's family. Addisyn and Ayden went to my parent's house in Alabama for the week so we just have 4 at home. It seems so easy with just 4 :) I spent $500 on groceries tonight, Kurt and the boys cleaned out the van and started laundry. It'll take a few days to get the house back together. Here's just a few pics to get started.
Your family is beautiful ... I volunteer for Katie and just wanted to pop over and say hello ... thanks for posting her button and helping us to share her story !!!
"So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life- your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life- and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God has for you is the best you can do for Him." Romans 12:1-2, the Message
