Dog Days of Summer













Well, it was this weekend last year when we set off for Mexico. We are still dealing with all the issues/heartache/
disappointment, etc. from leaving. That being said, things have been great here, and God has really blessed us, so we are encouraged, and are committed to just following His leading step by step, day by day, "blooming where we are planted"!
Speaking of plants, here are ours. Eddie brought over these sweet trees for the yard - WHAT a huge and awesomely great thing, to have REAL TREES in the backyard! And my veggies are coming along handsomely - I think I just may make some pizza one night this week and pick that big banana pepper for it. YES! HARVESTING!!!

Name Ideas Please

Exercising with Dad and enjoying her mini slinky. Ok, some of you had some, uh, interesting name choices for our new little one. We will have an ultrasound before Christmas, so then we can start narrowing it down, but does anyone have some REAL ideas? We like short uncomplicated names with meaning. We don't like names that remind us of lousy people or strange celebrities, and none of those weird new names that people our age are naming their kids, like "Christman" or something. (That is a real name - I know a little girl AND a little boy named that. It is pronounced like Christmas, only not.) So yeah, give us some ideas. Does anyone like "Paul"? Is that too old sounding? What about Ana for a girl? Hmmm...

GRAND PRIZE

Ok, we decided - if we pick the name you suggested, you will receive... 1) an autographed portrait of Haley (we realize that isn't very relevant, but we have some extras - ha ha!) 2) the honor of setting up a trust fund for the new baby, minimum starting amount $500 3) a call on the first day the new baby says his/her name 4) a shout out on the BLOG!!! YESSSSS!!! We are of course extremely generous - please don't be astounded by the magnitude of these prizes. Good luck everyone!!

Baby Names

Just in case it is a girl, which we are actually pretty sure it will be, here are some options we are thinking about - let us know what you think. These are our top five. 1) Maude 2) Hortense 3) Magda 4) Dorcas 5) Zipporah
