Change

I'm not sure how to start this post except that change is about to head our way. In the last few weeks we learned that Jamie's position at our church (Associate Pastor) will come to a close at the end of this year. Due to the budget they cannot keep him on for 2013. 
Therefore...as of our yesterday, our house went on the market.
So for now, we are just waiting and praying on God's direction for our family. We are open to moving out of state, or even country, as long as we feel God is in the center of it. Please join us in prayer as we seek His Will and direction for our life. Please also pray that we will be able to end well at our current church (The Light of Christ Anglican Church). We have built great memories and relationships in being there the last three years.
Not to mention the relationships we've built outside of TLC having lived here in Denver the past five years. Who knows, God could keep us here (??), but we're open to His leading if He decides to send us elsewhere. There would be A LOT of things we'd miss about living here though. I won't list them, because it might make me cry. 

**if you know of anyone who needs a great house here in Denver, send 'em our way!!

Samantha's Baby Shower

I had the pleasure of hosting a baby shower for a friend at church. Samantha is due around Thanksgiving with her third child, but 1st baby girl!! We're all very excited for her. As we currently have only one other girl in the nursery, and the rest are boys (around 10 of them to be exact!).


 When I asked her what she was decorating the baby room in, she replied with "Granny Sheek". I checked out her Pinterest page and went off that.

 On her page she also had these wall decals. I'm not sure what they're called. ? But they were simple to make. I just used embroidery rings and inserted different types of fabric - that resembled Granny Sheek! :) 
I also made her the bird mobile in the back. I swore last time I made one, that it would be my last. This time, it will be my last!! If you're interested in making one, go here. Just a tip, when I made the pattern, I did make it larger than the one they give. It was easier to sew them when they're just a little bigger.
It was a fun day celebrating her and the life she's carrying.
