Little Blessings...

1. Spending great time with both old and new friends. We went to KY this weekend to visit Keely and her family, and had a great time. We were sad for it to end, but so thankful we were able to see them! I'll try to post pics from that soon! We just got home from spending time with our new friends Sara and her son, Carter, who was born one day after Sydney. Sydney and I have really enjoyed getting to know them. It is so much fun watching Sydney and Carter interact...not that they do much, but they look at each other and sometimes smile, and reach out for each other. It is precious.
2. Good long naps that Sydney takes and that I am sometimes able to take too:)
3. Sunshine that is so hot, you have to be near a pool to be out in it!
4. Then the awesome storms that usually follow such a hot and humid day.
5. Getting a good long run in!! -- thanks Katie R for that last night!!
6. A supportive and loving husband.
7. New date nights while Nana keeps Sydney...Thank you!!
8. The Lord's reminders of what is really important
9. Opportunities to help someone else -
10. A sister who is about to turn 30!!! HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY ASH!! Love you!

UTAH!


We just got back from a week long vacation in beautiful Utah! It was Sydney's first time to fly and her first real vacation. I was very anxious about how it would all go, but she did great! She was a trooper on the plane...I was worried about her ears bothering her, but there were no signs of that thankfully. We got to spend some great time with our friends Betsy, Nat, and John Ford and Laura and Drew Miller. Every time I'm in Utah I am reminded of God's creative and artistic hand. I'll post more pics soon!
