Family and Friends.....oh so blessed!

So, let me just start out by saying this is the second time I've written this post because the first time it froze, as I was just finishing up.  Thus....I had to start over.  Drives me bonkers when that happens.  That was about a week ago....I had to gather myself and start again.  : D  The month of August has been a fun and full month.  We enjoyed visiting and hosting friends and family.  It is still a bit shocking to me how much it blesses me to see people love on my son.  It is different than being loved by myself....a new level of blessed if you will.


Larry and Jacquita(Josh's parents) came to visit for the weekend.  Larry and Josh stayed busy working around the house on another project.....at least this one wasn't too costly!  I am grateful for both of these men's talents when it comes to anything around the house.

Jacquita(Granna) stayed busy rocking, feeding and playing with Levi.  Such a blessing to Josh and I seeing how much they love Levi.  I'm pretty sure he loves them too!

 

 

My sweet friend Brandi and her daughter Aubrey came over a few times over the summer.  Such a cutie!  Future girlfriend?  Too early to think about that.  : D  We enjoyed our play dates with them....so sad Brandi had to start back teaching.

 

 

Levi and I traveled to Amarillo to visit my mom(MoMo) for a week.  It was our first time to travel without Daddy.  Levi was a champ....slept just about the whole way.  Plus it helps stopping off in Lubbock to see friends.  Levi loved the Johnny Jumper while we were there.  First taste of jumping.

 

It was such a sweet time with my Mom!  We talked and talked, watched the olympics, ate some delicious pie, hung out with Marcus, Lacey and Harper, and shopped.  She was also such a big help with Levi!  I totally took advantage and let her bath, rock, and hold him.

 

 

Janna, James and Hudson came for a visit as well this month.  It was only for a day but oh so worth it.  This lady is the 'bestest' friend anyone could ever ask for.  She is never short of encouragement when I need it most.  I have friends that are nice.  That care.  That include me in stuff.  But you know they don't really love you or need you.  Janna loves me.  And needs me as a friend like I need her as a friend.  There is something so very sweet in that.  Anyway.....love you sweet and dear friend.

Did I mention she has the most adorable little boy(Hudson) ever!?  He is just great!  Levi has no choice but to be best buds with this little guy!  : D

I'm pretty sure this post is not nearly as good as the first time I wrote it...but it is what it is. 

Thank you Lord for choosing to surround my little family with such love from friends and family.  I am humbled by your grace so freely given to someone as unworthy as I.
