families and birthdays...

We had a great time in Greenville last weekend! We went to celebrate some birthdays in my family and to visit with Ryan's family.

Friday night, we spent some time with Mr. Mike and Ms. Cindy. Scout had really missed them and was thrilled to be reunited with them. They were great sports, even after Scout had like 5 accidents in the house. Oh, the joy of being grandparents to a pup!




Saturday we had a great time hanging out with lots of family. Ms. Cindy and I attempted to take Scout for a walk, but he decided he wanted to lay down in the middle of the walking track instead. So, we tried taking Scout downtown and went for a walk with Cory & Ashey through Falls Park.
That night, we went to Quin & Angie's to celebrate 3 birthdays....Big Ken, Anna and Quin.
Anna turned 6 last week...she is getting so big...and fabulous :)
Quin's birthday is this week, March 3rd, but we celebrated a little early this year
Here is a picture of 2 of the honored guests, Big Ken and Anna, enjoying all the excitement!
Acie and Davis are our 2 nephews....so cute. They were really busy playing but took a short time-out to smile for a picture!
Acie wanted me to take a picture of him with his cross necklace...
Hostess with the mostest...Angie!!!

Meme with Anna and Ragin

Isn't Mae Harmon the cutest thing? Angie puts her to sleep at like 6:30 :), but we got to hang out with her cute little self for a few minutes!
Eadon wanted me to take this picture...."double uggs". She and Mae Harmon both were styling in Ugg boots. You can tell how stylish I am...I don't even know if I spelled "Ugg" right. Sad day when a 1 year old beats you out in the fashion category.

Eadon looking radiant....
Ragin flashing an awesome pose! You can tell these two have had a TON of practice taking pictures!

Uncle Ryan and his nieces....
Time for cake and candles!
Mom and her favorite son....
Angie and Liz get together for a pic..

It was a great weekend and we got to spend some time with our wonderful families! Happy Birthday to Anna, Big Ken and Quin!!!

The Shame Game

Ashamed. That is one of the main feelings I can use to describe how I have felt this week. Ashamed. When my 4 year old fought against 3, yes 3, grown medical professionals trying to obtain a strep test (which he did have). I saw the looks they exchanged as he bit the tongue depressor and gritted his teeth and made their job a living nightmare. Ashamed. When it was my two boys fighting that caused the other little boy to run and tell his mom that they were making his play time not so much fun and then they left. I felt like I saw a look that she gave me too. Ashamed. As I carried two bawling, boneless children through Publix trying to get to my car after they pitched royal fits through most of the checkout line. I saw the look my grocery cart helper and an older lady walking by exchanged as they took in my helpless state against the two raging children. Ashamed. When I lost it on my 6 year old who needed me to stay in the room so he could go to sleep when I was trying to

On Faith and Suffering

Suffering....it is not an easy thing to bear up under. I feel that as life goes on, I am seeing more and more suffering around me. I have recently been through a tough season in my life. In the midst of difficult circumstances, it has caused me to look to God and question at times. I think sometimes in the Christian life, we are told, “Don’t question. Just believe. God is good all the time.” This, of course, is true but I think there is true beauty in the wrestling. In the coming out on the other side having a deeper faith because of where God has taken you on the journey. I have recently been reading in Hebrews and like God does, He somehow lined up the Scriptures and where I was reading to answer some of my questions right in the face. Questions like... “Why do people who love you have to suffer?” “I understand suffering is for your glory, but we already love you and are about your glory so do we have to go through it?” “Are you really big enough? Good? Faithful?” “Is it
