Prayer date

 Jane's birthday is two days away.  We are really excited!  However this is about the time that I start to get a little nervous....and nothing remedies that like a good time of focused, uninterrupted prayer! So Brent and I got a sitter for the boys and went to the church to pray together for Jane, for the delivery, for the boys and for anything else that came to our hearts.  It was wonderful to pray to the God of all creation, knowing that He cares for us and that He is in complete control of our lives.  He not only knows the future, but He wrote the very plan for our lives and that is very comforting.  What a privilege to take all of our cares, worries, stresses and requests to the God who gave His own Son to save us from our sins and promises to give us everything else we need.

 Probably the last belly pic to be taken...here we are at 39 weeks, days before delivery!

 It actually RAINED on Friday night.  This is the first time in about 3 months that I can remember it raining.  We have been in a heat wave as well with day after day of temps in the triple digits.  So the rain was a huge relief and answer to prayer.  I told the boys a long time ago that when it finally rained again I would let them play in it.  So, true to my word, we let them go crazy in the front yard.  :)

Haha, I love this one!  The boys started to pretend that they were dinosaurs in the rain....Brent couldn't help joining in.  :)
