Blake's Baptism

This fall, Blake was part of a Bible study with a group of men and the pastor from our church. Since several of the guys had never been baptized, including Blake, they decided to organize an informal baptism at one of their houses. It was such an intimate, special gathering, and I was so moved to see my honey take such a big step in his faith.

Bunk Bed Injury

The girls had a friend over and had been playing upstairs by themselves for a while when Evie and their friend, Gigi, came down to say they had been jumping off the top bunk and Darcy had hurt her foot. Now, jumping off the top bunk is a big no-no in our house as it quite high. When ice did not fix Darcy's injury, we knew something was up so I took her to the Urgent Care Center. Sure enough she had broken her foot. Blake and I took turns staying home with her until she could get in to see the orthopedic surgeon and get a proper cast. Thankfully, all she needed was a walking boot for a few weeks, which was such a relief! Hopefully the girl have learned their lesson about jumping off the top bunk!
