Happenings!

The past two months have been full of several fun occasions. First, was the marriage of Caroline Casy and Aaron Rector. Caroline's mom and dad are some of our best friends and Caroline and Emily have been best friends since "before birth". Caroline and Aaron were married in a very small and intimate wedding in Dallas with family and a few friends present. After their honeymoon, several of us gave them a party here in Abilene. It was a great night and a time to celebrate their new journey together.Pretty cute, huh?
Our prayer for them...
Their "journey" suitcases were loaded with food and goodies.
And a great time was had by all!
Next, comes Thanksgiving. Steph flew in from Denver and we joined Mark's mom and other members of his family at his sister's new country home in Rosebud.
So pretty and peaceful!
Of course our little great-nieces and nephew were there to make it extra fun!!
Now it is Christmas.....I took this picture the other night before I went to bed. I love this time of evening... so peaceful and quiet..so still, but the tree so bright. May we all "Be Still" for a moment and ask Jesus to fill our hearts with His peace, His quiet voice and the warmth of His love this holiday season. Be blessed!
