Some Mommy time!

I surprise my friend April for a early birthday present and took her to go see her favorite Christian band Casting Crowns. They are wonderful and their music is something that so many people can relate to. We had so much fun, and I am so glad that April and I were able to have a kid free night and have a good time.

Matt Redman opened for them...he was wonderful, very talented!
Yay for Casting Crowns


We waited for a little bit so we could get a cd signed for April.

April and I talked a little last night and were laughing about how neither of us ever thought that we would be "great" friends. Maybe hang out every now and then. Little did we know what was coming. I know that the Lord put us into eachothers lives at a period of time were both of us needed. I can't imagine going through some of trials we have in the last 6 months with out her as my friend. I am blessed to have her in my life. April I hope you know what you mean to me!

Yay for going to a concert again!!!

Addie's first real dentist appt.

We were told about a wonderful dentist from one of Brian's cousins. Brian and I have been going to him for over a year now and LOVE HIM!! I know loving the dentist sounds crazy but honestly he is the greatest man. If you live in the Phoenix metro area he is worth any drive to get to him. His name is Dr. Paul Snow.

Anyways moving on the the good stuff..Addie had her first real appointment, cleaning and all. She was so excited to go and she did AWESOME!! Daniella was fabulous, she explained everything to Addie.

They call the suction thing Mr. Thristy. She thought it was SUPER funny how it worked.

After the cleaning Dr. Snow came and talked to her and checked her teeth out. He said they look great and no problems.

Addie had a hay day in the prize drawer. Over all a wonderful first visit!

In need of prayers..

Let me tell you a little something about My Love (inside joke)...not my hubby....my cousin Jen. She is beautiful, caring, loving, funny, kind, and also one of my very best friends. We are only a year and a few weeks apart. We lost her mom/my aunt a few years ago to breast cancer. This girl has been through so much! She found a lump on her neck for a few months ago but didn't have insurance, so she waited a little bit till they were covered went in to a doc and he said they needed to do a biopsy. She has battled with her insurance for a while now and finally got the okay to have one done on it. She had it done yesterday, we all hoped for the best but were afraid for the worst. She called me this afternoon and told me that it is lymphoma cancer. She said they that will do chemo, but she has an appt on Friday. They will run a bunch of test and figure out what the game plan is. She has a lot going for her being young and healthy, but who knows what God has in store for her during this huge trial.

I beg of you all to PLEASE pray for her. She is one of the most amazing women I know, my life would not be the same with out her.

I love you Jen!
