This morning in Sunday school, we talked about the importance of keeping a journal of God's miracles, and our prayers. So, why not share them with others as well?
We have been without a/c for close to 2 weeks. With the house reaching a temp of over 90 degrees, it's been a little hard to deal with. Grass didn't get cut. Laundry didn't get done as quickly, and the house wasn't getting cleaned as well. It was just too hot. The week before the a/c died, we had to replace the water heater, so it made it a little difficult to fork out more cash right away. I have been praying about it, and today, God answered that prayer.
We have some really amazing friends who took charge and asked a repair man to just come take a look. Little did our friend know, that this man has felt a need to help someone. He offered to help others, but had not found anyone who needed him right then. Well, he found us today, and was able to not only fix our problem, but was able to fulfill God's request of him. My friend and I were talking, and she made the comment that people in general hold back others from sharing their gifts, and talents. We don't want to ask for help, or let anyone know that we even need help. However, it can be as much of a blessing to the giver, as the receiver. I felt a great deal of blessing today!
People tend to turn to God when they are hurt, or are in need of something big, but He is there for everything. He is our almighty father, and he wants to protect us, and provide for us.
Please be sure to share the miracles you have witnessed. They are testimonies of our God, and His power. The repair man, and our friends, not only offered help, they gave a testimony of their love, and faith.

Happy 7th Birthday Logan!
Today is Logan's birthday. We celebrated Saturday with friends and family in the pool and sprinklers. Logan had a blast at his Cars 2 party, and looks forward to finishing out his birthday when the movie hits theaters on the 24th. We love month long birthdays. :)

What a great sick day today!
I was feeling pretty bad this morning, and didn't get much sleep last night. After my sad attempt at getting dressed for church this morning, Thomas just smiled and said that we would stay in and watch it online. I don't like missing church, but this morning, I happily tossed off my church clothes, and snuggled into my comfy p.j.'s. I stayed in bed most of the day. During that time, Thomas brought me breakfast in bed, with a flower, and fed all the kids. I have to admit, that I was worried that the house would be destroyed. How wrong I was. Thomas cooked all the meals, took care of the dishes, and cleaned up after himself and the kids. They, and me a little, played games all day. We went to Baskin Robbins for a late afternoon snack, since everyone was so good. The kids are playing well outside, while Thomas and I are hanging out. I just wanted to share how blessed I am, while giving a shout out to my guy.
What a wonderful sick day!

Lana's Fairy Party!
Today, my baby girl turned 5. My how time flies. She has been such a joy to have in our family, and I look forward to many, many more happy birthdays with her.
Saturday, she had her first friend party, that included fairies, of course.
| I love these little garden fairies. |
| Lana and I, with some help from Logan, worked hard making tutus, wings, flower crowns, and wands. |

| I'm glad we took pictures before they left the porch. It was so windy outside. |
| "Fairy Fun" |
| The Garden Fairy hunt |
| Dance freeze |
| The kids and I made 16 little garden fairies. These were my favorite, if you couldn't tell by all the pictures. ;) |
| They hid in the yard for the girls to find them. (Like an Easter Egg hunt) |
| Snack time! We had M&Ms, lady fingers, and butterfly PB&J. |
