Opps, Sorry!

So, it's been a while. Sorry. I blame the pregnancy and the transition of Beckett taking 2 naps, to only 1 nap. Time during the 1 nap is valuable - it's time for me to cook or to spend time with the Lord or to write an email or to take a nap myself!! So blogging got pushed aside.

But, I'm back!

So what's been going on since I've been gone? Lots! Actually I can't think of what I wrote about last and when it was, so I'll just give you some of the highlights. In bullet form!

-Woodcreek, our home church, sent a group of ladies to work with House of Hope. This group of ladies was awesome, mature, fun, and super-servants. They were able to speak hope into the lives of many women that live or are associated with House of Hope.
When your home church comes to where you live, regardless if you know them all or not, it's like family visiting. So we felt honored and blessed that they were here.

-At the end of October, Beckett and I made a short trip home to Dallas. We went because we won't be able to come home at Christmas time because our second baby is due in January and we went to go see our friends, the Lilley's, new baby! Exciting and fun times were had by all!
Beckett went to a pumpkin patch, fed some crazy goats, went to our church's fall festival and was extremely spoiled by all 4 grandparents!
I ate some delicious food, spent time with my mom, searched and found all Beckett's old clothes, and went to Target and Walmart numerous times! Fun times for me too! Plus I got to hang out with sweet baby Evie Claire Lilley!



-In November, a lot of the Russells came for Thanksgiving. This time it really was family coming to visit. We went to Laguna de Apoyo ( a gorgeous lake set in a crater of a volcano) and just hung out and visited. Again, fun, fun!


Ok, so that was just a brief wrap up of our life while I was away - not blogging!
