I can not thank you enough for all your prayers, and Bible scriptures, and text, over this past week! That really meant a lot.

It has been a fun week with Bible study, Prayer groups and Birthday Partys. But somehow we have  managed to forget to get pictures of this. Sorry I am crazy about getting photos of everything. I'm becoming addicted I think. ;) 

Grace went  for her 2nd hair cut last weekend..she looks a little unsure of this man cutting her hair...she had a young lady cut it last time.;)

But she warmed up and had a great time.

She loves the salon!

She's very excited, she also had her very first towel up do! Silly girl.

Abie and the boy's about 9 o'clock one night just chillin.

Hearing them talk and loving on her was just precious. All three loved every minute of it.

Daddy teaching Grace how to play the invisible electric guitar..jamming to Toby Mac!

And last but not least.. (Btw, if you have made it this far you are wonderful friend or just very bored!)

Our very first (and last) cantaloupe from our garden!!! Wooohooo!! I say last, because out of ALL that we planted we only got this ONE. We let Jared pick it...and as he did he said, I picked the first and last cantaloupe of the season! Funny, you little toot. But true. The sad thing is, it looks really yummy..right?  Well, when we cut into it we all agreed it tasted like cucumber. :/  Next year we will plant them much further apart and a lot less cucumber! Man we had tons, enough to effect the fruit. Oh well, you live, you learn.

After a week of prayer and several hours of detailed discussion tonight we have decided for Jeff to take the Plant Superintendent job.  We feel that this is what the Lord wants for us and our family. Jeff is excited! He has been ready for years to have the opportunity to make a difference at work. God has been so good to us and has given us more then we deserve. We are so very thankful for his many blessings!
