She's here!!!


This is Emmie Kate Jackson and she's pretty much the most adorable baby ever! I cannot wait to meet her and give Rachel a big hug! She was born this morning at 9:24am and she is 7pounds and 24inches long. I love her already and am ready to meet her!!! Please be praying for the Jackson's as they bring her home and Rachel is recovering.

When boredom sets in...

When boredom sets in this is the result... I am living in Elgin IL for the next few weeks, with pretty much nothing within walking distance. So we have been going a little stir crazy. One evening I decided to go for a walk this is what I found...



Yay! Fall is coming! I really wish more of the leaves were turning colors.



This river really makes me want to go Kayaking


"But I will hope continually, and will praise You yet more and more. My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness and Your salvation all the day, for I do not know of their limits. I will go in the strength of the Lord God; I will make mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only."

Psalms 71:14-16

To infinaty and beyond...


Alan and I got to go to Disneyland this week for two days, it was wonderful! We have definate;y gotten use out of those season passes. We both got our highest scores ever on the Buzz Lightyear game of course he still kicked my butt. We rode on the new ride Toy Story Mania, I don't want to spoil it for you...but it was awesome! I didn't take any pictures while we were there. For some reason when it is SO hot outside I don't want to take many pictures, that and I'm still a tad bit bitter at our computer for going bersurk. Anywho, Disneyland was awesome! I highly recomend going while school is in session and during the weekdays! Today we walked onto Pirates of the Carribean...I know! Alan and I are off to chicago this Saturday, so maybe my next blog will from the windy city! Jeesh we can't get away from the wind!
