Pleasant Places!

Most of you have heard our big news!

"The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance." Psalm 16:6



SO...


This is in our yard as of Thursday!

and this sold on Saturday!

Now we are cleaning, organizing, packing, and seeking God's pleasant place for us in the Roanoke area! Our time here in Richmond is coming to an end.

Acts 17 says "...and he marked out their appointed times in history and their boundaries of their lands."

God continues to be faithful to us and we are so grateful and excited about His plans for us. We are even more thrilled about his ansering our prayers and more quickly than we anticipated! Our prayer continues to be for our boys and their security & joy in this transition.

Saturday was a big day for Jacob as well. He lost his first tooth. I am having trouble loading the video but it will go up soon.

For now I'll wrap this up w/ a sweet pic of the boys from Monday night. It was a rough day b/w them. They argued and fought ALL day! However, this is how their day ended...so sweet! They are sharing Ben's bottom bunk! They love each other so much and Ben typically likes to rub skin on his way to sleep.

So Good

So Good, So Good, So Good,
Lord I just want to tell you how So Good,
So Good You Are!

Our Recent Days in Pictures!

Boys Boys Boys

I've been told by quite a few that I need to post! It's really not much but here it goes...I have a few more readers than I realized!

I LOVE my boys!
JM was gone this weekend (and we missed him!) and that usually means the weekend sort of drags. However, it flew by and we had a blast! We did simple yet special things together! We did something Friday night that the boys have never done but I can't say...it's for a special someone's birthday/Father's day! So cute! The rest of the weekend we didn't go by a schedule but just went w/ the flow! It was a nice change. (I still like a routine though :) ) We played outside all day and late each night, played in the pool on the porch, ate lunch...at 4:00! haha. We made muffins for Breakfast at 10am when we are usually at church. The boys even went w/ me to try on clothes...I need shorts/pants and they were great! While Ben took a nap, Jacob & I played Battleship (my game from when I was little) and he almost won...I was only 2 calls ahead of him! We went to the pet store...nope, we have no pets! We had the most relaxed weekend filled w/ random fun! I highly reccomend it!

oh and Ben's forehead...whew...it still looks not so pretty! but he's great! it looks similar to a green quarter w/ a purple dot in the middle.

I'm off to Jacob's school to celebrate his summer bday. He told me this morning in the car that he knows some of my favorite things to do. One of them being going to his class. I am so glad he realizes this!
