Our garden

Fresh from the garden tomatoes, green beans, corn, potatoes, squash and zucchini. Boy do we have lots of produce for such a neglected garden. I was telling Michael's Grandparents just the other day that the Lord must be watching over and tending our garden because we haven't! And then to have all the produce that it produced! It makes me think about when God plants a seed in someones life, it gets watered and eventually will produce fruit. It is amazing to me to watch someone grow on the Lord. I thought of this last night when Trathan and I went to pick tomatoes for our salad, he made the comment, "Mommy, we planted this garden, and it has grown so much." When we allow God to use us to plant a seed or to allow Him use the seed planted in us, there is no weed that can over take His fruit! As I looked out at our garden full of weeds, it was extremely eye opening. I am continually amazed at God's work in our home, our lives and our children. Today my prayer is that God will continue to do marvelous things in us amongst the weeds we allow to grow around us!

In His Love,
Casey

Back to School Fun!!

Please be in prayer for Michael as he has gone back to school today. Tough Semester ahead with Hebrew on the schedule. Michael will be speaking at Perkinsville in September. Will update with dates and times when he decides to let me know :).

For Michael's back to School fun trip we took the kids down to Chuckie Cheeses. We had a blast and T-man got to take a friend along, Ben. Ben and T love to play together and get along great. I do have to say I wish I had their energy. We also met Michael's friend BJ, his cousin Timothy and Shane, Keana and Kasen Triplett. I think the pictures speak for themselves. Enjoy!


On Our Way!!

Slap Wore Out!!

What a Summer!

I am starting to feel very guilty about asking you to follow our blog and then not posting anything!! Wow, once again we have run like crazy this summer but have enjoyed every waking moment. We have just gotten back from a beach trip with Michael's Mom and Sister to Myrtle Beach. Boy did we have a blast. I have to take a moment to brag on my little man who has learned to swim. Before the beach Uncle David gave him two swim lessons, and all though hesitant at first, he has picked up on swimming very quickly. At our hotel pool, T-man took a 6 foot swim by himself swimming under the water. I could not believe my eyes and was so proud of him. He is continuing lessons about twice a week at our local pool. (will post a video very soon).

Lainey Bug also known as LB is on her way to walking. She loves walking behind a push toy or pushing a stroller. She walks around her toys and tables. She is every where. She is also my good eater. The other night I was calling every one to dinner and Lainey made a bee line to the kitchen from Tman's room. It was so hilarious, she came dragging that left leg behind her and pulling herself right along. She loves to eat any type of melon, blueberries, applesauce and so much more.

Yesterday was a BIG Day at church for Trathan. He has moved from the nursery to a big Sunday School class. He is such a big boy and even came home saying his memory verse. He has joined Michael and I in Big Church and right before the sermon heads down to children's church. He truly loves to learn about Jesus and soaks up everything he is taught. While singing the praise songs with daddy I even saw his little hand slip up in praise! There is something very special about his faith!!

One more thing!!
Please pray for the Klear Family this week especially. Sam (same age as T-man) will under go heart surgery in the morning. Pray for pain management and healing!! You can visit their site for updates www.klearlife.blogspot.com.

I will joy in the God of my Salvation,
Casey
