Boston Marathon Weekend

Here is Adam after the race. He looks surprisingly good for having just run 26.2 miles in 3:03. We got to see him midway in the race and he flashed a big smile at us.

Here we are at Harvard. As you can see, just being on the grounds made us feel like we needed to contemplate and think more.

Fenway Park was awesome to see. Such a piece of sports history!

This is a picture outside the balcony of where we stayed. It was simply amazing! Thank you, Smarts!!!!

The day before the race we checked out the finish line because we knew it would be too crowded to see it the day of the race. It was unbelievable how many people were there to watch and cheer for the runners. Boston really does an excellent job on making this a special event for everyone involved.

A Look At Whats To Come

We went to College Station to get our sweet friend and very talented photographer, Liz Chivvis, to take a few pictures of the girls. This is just a sneak peak of what she has taken. Liz is awesome and the girls had fun too, until J started screaming her head off.

Convicted!

J is sitting up now! She is growing up so fast.

Love this picture! Okay, so the reason I was convicted...I took J to the doctor a couple of weeks ago for her shots. K has really gotten into trying to "read" this little white Bible our church gave her when she was born. So, K asked if she could take her Bible to the doctor. My first thought was to say, "No. You don't want to lose it or get it dirty," but then I thought that it is a good idea to be teaching her even now that it is good to take your Bible wherever you go. So, I changed my mind and told her "yes". When we got to the office, I stood in line to check in J and I told K that she can go ahead and sit down since Cinderella was playing on the tv. Well, I watch as she walks over to the seats, sits down next to a boy at least one year older than her, holds up her little Bible, and says to the boy, "Hi. My name is K and this is my Bible. The Bible is God's Word." Oh, how convicted I was by such innocent boldness! Lord, teach me to be just as brave when I find myself sitting next to strangers, and help K to never lose her boldness for You.

J's Dedication

We dedicated J on Valentine's Day at church. We had such a special time with all of the family coming in to celebrate with us.

Christmas Time!

Here are some very belated Christmas pictures. K and J are here with their cousins. We had such a great Christmas in Galveston and Austin. K especially loved playing princess with her cousin the whole time. They wore their princess costumes non-stop.
