For the love of family...

  So this is the first time in a few years that ALL of my siblings and their spouses and kids have been here at the same time. It's amazing. 

  This weekend was crazy busy, but so much fun! full of hanging out and celebrating birthdays and playing cards.
  So far this week Laina has spent time here, it's rained a lot, and our new counter tops have been installed! There are many awesome things that have happened and are happening and it's just so refreshing. It's funny, I finally get to where I'm trusting God's plan even though it's rough at times, and now cool things are happening.

  Monday, Laina and I were just walking to the mail box and THIS

is what we saw!!!!!!!!!!!! I was giddy with excitement! haha
Yesterday morning the creeks looked like this:
