Father's Day 2021 ~ I got the best

Father's day - got Bran home for the day, missing Hudda!
ummm... this was a first

Father’s day sure makes me realize that I am so taken care of my dad and by Corbin - and Papa! Three amazing fathers. 

I couldn't be prouder of Trey, Chris and Luke as fathers for my 13 nieces and nephews. Same goes for Alan and Clinton. Our cups overflow

7R and lake day with Essie and friends - such a great group - Essie, Olivia, Ashley, Jax, Zac, Basden and Bailey. Corbin is such a trooper to make it all happen, everything is more fun with him

Basden really sick, but recovered in a day - no fun for her! 

Bran's work - if you choose to spend a summer knocking on doors, helpful to rank in the top 10 ACROSS THE COUNTRY

Pine Cove counselors spending a Saturday in our home for a rest day - especially fun to be with the Buells and some Baylor students

The way Bailey just jumps into our family, we are enjoying her so much
 
 
Be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger…help on me on this, Lord (James 1:19)

Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil,
Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness,
Who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. Isaiah 5:20

My new fav song
keep writing, David

Joy’s friends over last night, movie with Corbin and Bailey

Summer HSM has begun! Essie's first summer to get to participate with stupidCovid

Another little gem from prom...
Something I want to remember about this picture - Basden's dress we ordered didn't come in, and two days before prom she called a couple of friends and found a dress to borrow (thank you, Tatum). She didn't even blink. What a JOY she is

Working out with Laura several mornings - she hasn't killed me quite yet

Jerry, Shelby painting the piano room - yay!


Working from home this morn until 10:00, got more done in that hour than the rest of the day

Several very difficult phone calls at work this week - thanking you for all things

Cappy's post on FB, this is just so true. Dad and my brothers are the best with this and it makes all the difference

Distasios, O’Modrhains, Colton over this evening - such a sweet time with them, gorgeous kiddos

Phone call from B.M., broke my heart and encouraged me all at the same time, so hard Lord - we need you 

Bailey staying with us this summer - so many reasons to be grateful for her

All the plants that our homeowners planted before us continue to thrive so beautifully. I love this hibiscus on our driveway, it's totally hidden but I get to see it every time I leave and arrive

I'm not comfortable with Cappy in the hospital. This was a scheduled surgery, and I'm SO GRATEFUL for good docs and nurses. But even more grateful he's home and healing. 

Girls serving at CCBC Kids Camp - this week is just the best for our church body
extra grateful for Sarah, she loves our FAMILY well
SCS varsity cheerleaders serving at Kids Camp

Five days in Park City with Corbin - one of our absolute most favorite spots

Meanwhile, at home... 
love, laughter, and lots of littles

Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles... 1 Chronicles 16:11-12
