Happy 2nd Birthday Prince Will




William and I along with my parents celebrated Prince Will's 2nd birthday on 12/28. I made strawberry cupcakes, they were yummy. I am certain that Prince Will would have loved strawberries as much as his mommy. =) On Easter weekend this year, Prince Will's head stone will be placed and we are planning a celebration of his life with our family and our friends. What a great time to celebrate Prince Will's life. We love you and miss you everyday!!!

Spending time with family in OK







Today, we took a family road trip to Lawton OK to visit my mom's older sister and family! It has been awhile since we all have hung out together! It was long overdue. I remember these road trips from TX to OK every year to visit my mom's side of the family, I always looked forward to our visits. We had a great visit and are planning a family reunion for next summer! Cannot wait!! Love you guys!

Un-Breakable, Un-Shakeable... FAITH! TRUST!

I know alot of you are wondering and are too afraid to ask if William and I are still trying to get pregnant.......YES! We have been going to an Infertility specialist since early August. He is the most awesome doctor, he shoots straight from the hip whether is stings or not. We appreciate his honesty. We each went through a battery of test, all things checked out, great, except of course, I am OLD and so are are my eggs! Aargh! I had a procedure in August, in laymen terms, to make sure there was no blockage and to clean out my tubes, the chance of getting pregnant after this procedure is done per our doctor increases chances to get pregnant tremendously. It worked, William and I conceived but we had a miscarriage in September, we were 6 weeks pregnant. WOW! Why would God do this to us again, another child gone. I can be honest, the thought crossed my mind for a split second. The one thing we have to do is always be honest with God! If you are angry, tell Him, hurt cry on His shoulder, He is our father, He wants to supply our needs, help us through hurts, He is always there for us! If you have questions, ask Him. I remember hearing people say when I was younger not to question God but I have learned over the past two years, if you do not understand, it is OK to cry out to Him, the key is, once you have done this and He answers, do not dwell there, you have to accept it and move on. After, I asked my question about my miscarriage, MY daddy (God) quietly whispered in my ear, in MY time, my dear child, I have plans for you.. Did my hurt go away immediately, NO, I (we) grieved our loss but I(we) knew all was not lost! God is still in control, He is sovereign! William and I still believe He has a plan for our lives and we are open to all options, donor eggs and possibly adoption. We are continuing to be patient and wait for God to tell us what our next move is. The one thing we know for sure is that our Father loves us, He cherishes us, and He will never ever give us more than we can bear. His will shall be done in our lives, in His time! We have to trust Him! So, whatever storm some of you reading this may be in right now, trust Him, do you trust Him? if you do trust Him, let it go, whatever it is, give it to Him, He will work it out! We love you and pray God's abundant blessings in your lives today and always.

Thanksgiving 2010 - God, thank you for this day!






































We had an awesome Thanksgiving! Alice, Maxine, Theresa and her husband came to celebrate with us. It has been years since we all sat down and had turkey dinner together. God is so good. I look forward to many more holidays like this one, it was great to laugh and reminisce about old times. Jayden loves riding horses, so daddy saddled them up and they rode on Thanksgiving morning. Jayden is so tiny, look at him on the big horse! =)
