Bees and Bunnies

Kyle and our bees in the box they were mailed in.
(We had to go pick them up from the post office because the mail lady didn't want them in her car. We don't blame her:)

These bees are feeding the queen while she's in a cage. There's a candy plug that the bees will eventually eat through to let her out. This way the bees can get used to the queen without being able to reject her.

They look so professional.

A look in the hive.


The bees have seemed to settle well in their new home.

Last Tuesday, our momma bunny gave birth to two adorable babies.

They are eight days old and still haven't opened their eyes. Extremely cute though!!



Exploring my skirt.


Not to leave out the other. This one is considerably more chunky!!



These are just another reminder of the blessing of life.
Kyle and I(Emilee) are studying Biology right now and learning how every creature cries out of a designer. Even the "simple" life forms and creatures are so complex! Only God could create life in such diversity. What's amazing though is the same God that makes every little ant and calls all the stars by name is the same God that made us and watches over every part of our lives. What do we have to worry about if our faith is in Him and we are walking in His ways?

20 Years Ago...

A young lady and a young man looked each other in the eye, said "I do" and became one. This was only the beginning of the journey.
Since then, God has led them to the other side of the continent and given them six arrows (better known as children) to raise up. They have also taken on new names of "Daddy and Momma".

Thank you Daddy and Momma for your steadfast love to one another and great example to us. We love you!!

A trip to the mountains!

We have some friends who have a cabin in the mountains of North Carolina. They have let us use it for the past few years and it has become one of our family's favorite vacation spots. We went up there for the weekend this month with some good friends from Tennessee and had a blast.

The crew out for a hike

"Come on girls, you're almost to the top!"

Nothing like playing in a river!

Battling the strong currents and slippery rocks

A little wet and a little cold

"...When through the woods and forest glades I wander,"


"...And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees..."


"...When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur..."

"...And hear the brook..."


"...And feel the gentle breeze..."

Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
