Happy Father’s Day!

Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers out there! I hope you guys have a great day.

We’re spending the day at my parents’ house in between church services. Sadie is currently skipping her daily nap and having the time of her life in the baby pool my parents got for her to play in.

I was reflecting on the father figures in my life and thought it would be fun to share three things I love about my Heavenly Father, dad, father-in-law, and Jimmy. I also made Jimmy a video of pictures and clips of him and Sadie and I can’t watch it without tearing up, lol.

Okay, onto those amazing fathers!

God
1. He cares. Always. Every detail of our lives is important to Him.
2. He is patient.
3. He created our world. I admire His creativity so much.

Jimmy
1. He is incredibly patient.
2. He’s gentle, always.
3. He works very hard at everything he does.

My Dad
1. He is easily the most generous person I know.
2. He loves and serves God with all his heart.
3. He gives the most amazing bear hugs.

My Father-in-Law
1. He is dedicated to serving the Lord.
2. He has been through some tough times but has remained faithful through it all.
3. He is silly, silly, silly!

Well, I’m going to get going and keep celebrating the amazing men God has placed in my life. As I was typing up this post in my parents’ kitchen, Jimmy and my dad were sitting at the island I was working on and I noticed Jimmy doing something out of the corner of my eye.

He wanted me to have an audience while I blogged, LOL.

Tell me about the fathers in your life!

She’s Here!

I’m so happy to announce that Jimmy and I welcomed our daughter Sadie Mae into the world last week!

We are completely smitten with our baby girl and are in awe that God blessed us with her sweet little soul! The love we feel for her has helped us to more fully grasp the love God has for us, and it is so beautiful.

We are soaking in these newborn days and cherishing each and every moment as we adjust to our life as a family of three (or six, if you count our fur babies!). Thank you to everyone who has followed along with our pregnancy and now new life as parents.

The comments, emails, texts, support, prayers, encouragement, and love we have received mean the world to us. I’ll be back soon to share miss Sadie’s birth story!

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. James 1:17
