Lake Weekend with the Reese Fam!

Hello everyone!! I have missed yall! Baby Reese and I are growing fast these days. I am now at 29 weeks, which is so exciting. We cannot wait to meet this little guy.

Life has been crazy for the past month. I guess we are trying to get all our last traveling in before the baby comes. We went to Charleston for our anniversary, Edisto with some friends, Litchfield for labor day weekend with my family and then the lake with Ryan's family. It has been a full schedule, but a ton of fun.

We headed to Lake Nattaly a couple of weekends ago. It was awesome because the whole family was together and that rarely happens. We had a pontoon boat that came with the house we rented, so we enjoyed taking it out on the beautiful lake. We hung around the house, soaked in the hot tub, played some board games and watched football. Scout had a great time swimming in the lake. It was a wonderful weekend and a sweet time of everyone being together.

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...
