Little Beach....Little Baby....

We have been having a great summer so far. We have been able to enjoy the beach twice so far this summer season, which has been amazing!! Ryan and I both had Memorial Day off, so we went to Litchfield. My sister and her family, mom and stepdad and brother were all at the beach. Trey even came to the beach to visit Ryan as well!! 

A few cute nieces and handsome nephew

We then went to Litchfield with the Reese family last week. It was such a treat because for a few moments we had all the Reese boys and girls in one spot!!! Cory, Ashley, Matt, Britt, Ms. Cindy, Mr. Mike and ourselves were all together for some beach time. We enjoyed the sun, rested and had some good meals.

It was so much fun to watch the Bachlorette with the Reese girls. We were all wrapped up in blankets and had a few chuckles at some unfortunate wardrobe choices!!! (aka Ryan B. in the wife beater/tank top that was REALLY struggling...did any of y'all catch that??)

My birthday was Tuesday while we were at the beach. It was so nice to enjoy the sun and take a nap and spend time with family. We went out to eat at Frank's which was DELICIOUS!!! It was a great day!

Scout was boarded at a Bed and Breakfast at the beach (seriously...was named a bed and breakfast). So, we were able to pick him up during the day if we wanted to spend some time with him at the beach. He loves the waves and just rolls around in the sand. He had a fun time!!

We went home on Wednesday. Sad to leave the beach, but we were also excited because we had a doctor's appointment and ultrasound. On this ultrasound, we could elect to find out what gender the baby was. Of course, we couldn't wait and were just bursting to find out. I was a little hesitant thinking that maybe the baby would be covered up and we would not be able to find out just yet. However, our sweet baby must have known how excited we were and just cooperated beautifully. Some of my family came to Greenville for the gender reveal and it was fun to set up the house to surprise them with the gender. 

Had this sign on the door when they all came over

Put blue streamers at the doorway and balloons for them to walk through when they came through the door (it's a boy, by the way!!!!!!)

Excited parents-to-be!!!

The family was pretty surprised, but of course, they were pumped!!!!

I found this great app for the I Phone so that we could take this picture to send out to the rest of the family and our friends to share our fun news!!!!

We can't believe we are having a baby boy!! So, so exciting!!! You can see we have been having some fun this summer! And, we have managed to squeeze some working in there too:)

    Ryan B's tank top/wife beater was a big hit at our house that night, too. Big fashion mistake Bowers, ha! You look so cute : )

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 ...

10 things...

I am such a copy-cat today, but I love this idea! My favorite, Beth Moore, started this on her blog,  and then I noticed my girls, Alyssa and Kathyrn did it on their blogs too. I am learning so many new things about people and, naturally, I need to do it now! Here are the directions: What are 10 things - right off the top of your head - that we would only know about you if we knew you really well? 10 random things ranging anywhere on your personal map that make you a tad distinctive? Or just plain weird? Think quickly. Don't go for deep. Go for quirky. Don't try to put them in any kind of order and don't make them long. Just start typing. Since this is the Reese blog, I will attempt to do it for both of Ryan and myself.... Anna: 1. I hate to shave. Freshman year of college, I only shaved once a week and my friends and people I worked with tried to straighten me out with weekly "armpit checks"...sick, but true. 2. I love zits, abscesses, blood blisters---an...
