Back from taking a break...

I have been absent here in the blogging world recently.  Us Gibsons have had lots of fun activities going on, and don't worry, I have lots of pics and stories to share.  I will work on that hopefully today, but no promises!

Everybody knows that my childhood bestest estest friend in the world is Allison.  We grew up together and were inseparable until this guy came along and stole her heart and moved her away.  Now I have to give him credit, he is an outstanding husband and father, and I couldn't be happier for them and their family.  Right now my heart is breaking for them, as they lost their 3 year old precious little girl on June 11.  We all know that she is with Jesus in Heaven, and what a blessing that is.  But our flesh is hurting.  They miss their baby so much, and my heart is hurting for them.  They are Christians and know that this was meant to be, but it is so hard on them.  Here is a verse that assures of this:

28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.  Romans 8:28 (NIV)

Please pray for my precious friend Allison, her husband Doug, their 5 year old Abigail, and their 4 week old Atleigh.  It will take so much time, but I know that they will be able to use this in their testimony at some point.  What a blessing to know Jesus and to know that He will carry them through and use them for His glory.

Do you know my Jesus?  He is your Jesus too!  He loves you unconditionally and is waiting for you, to have a personal relationship with Him!  It is because of HIM that we have the opportunity of eternity in Heaven.  Thank you dear Lord for loving me!

Sunday with Kasey...


This past Sunday we went to church with Taylor's sister Kasey in Jackson.  We went for her Baptism!  We are so excited about Kasey's decision to have a personal relationship with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.  Luke 15:10 says "In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”


It was streamed live over the church's website.  I didn't take any pics (didn't know if that was allowed), but here is a still shot that Pawpaw emailed (Taylor's dad that lives in Nashville and got to watch it!). 


Of course I did take a few pics before church.  Blake's yard is beautiful and made a great background.  I think I might have to take pics there again!











Here's the Daddy-O...


and look at those sock... (I did not approve!)


These were from Sunday night...  I love babies in their PJs...









We have a fun weekend planned!  We will be taking our first family-of-four trip to Nashville!!!  Look out Pawpaw, Emily, Shelby, and Sydney here we come!!!

POOL time!!!

Saturday was warm and sunny, so to the pool we went!  Lily Kate and Lucy both had a blast.  Lily Kate was so cute and funny, and Lucy was too...



 Poppy helped Lily Kate get ready to get in...



These are two cute girls!


Poppy took Lucy for her first swim ever...






  Dada took Lily Kate...


 P-up, Gage, and Ella were there too!


Lili Kate loved sliding down the rail!





After about 20 minutes, Lucy needed a break.



Then she was back in the water!  Happy happy Lucy...




Gage and Ella needed a snack, swimming makes ya hungry!











Thank you P-up for bringing some toys!





Poppy, Gage and Ella made a tower!!!  Aren't they talented...



Happy Kate...







I hate that there is a drop in the middle of her face, because her expression here is priceless!


And Lucy needed another break.  This time a bottle and a nap!




Yay for summer and yay for the pool!  And yay, in July we are going to the beach!!!  My girls will be fish by the end of the summer!
