RAMBLINGS

"Whenever the sounds of the world die out in the soul, or sink low, then we hear the whisperings of God." - F.W. Faber

So, I pretty much forgot I had a blog. HAHA. A lot has been going on over here. I was out of town last weekend, we are moving in a few weeks and it has been crazy trying to make and take phone calls, and gathering paperwork, and to top it all off we are ALL sick! It's like the never-ending cold for all of us. There has been little to no sleep going on here. So, while the kids are napping I try my hardest to take a nap as well, but that hasn't gone over well because either Jack will only take a 30 minute nap or he won't fall asleep until Evy is about to wake up. So it has been loads of fun. :) The house is such a mess! Gabe has been busy with work, worship, and recording his new album. So I haven't really gotten to see him much this week which makes me sad. I can't wait for September to be over. Busiest month to date. If I sound a little irritated, my lack of sleep is to blame. I've been in a pretty terrible mood and my kids get the brunt of it and I hate hate hate it. Sometimes I yell at them for no reason and I feel horrible about it. I've started having bible studies with them in the morning to start our day out right. That has helped tremendously. Why do we put so many worldly things in our lives before we come before the Lord? I don't know. I just don't know. Why are the things of the world so appealing but talking to our God, the person who created us and loves us more than we could even dream, seem so insignificant? But when we do come before the Lord we feel so refreshed and renewed. Our worries fade, and our anger subsides. Yet, we still want worldiness in our lives. Ugh! I cannot wait to be in heaven with our Father. I cannot wait until the world can no longer distract us from worshipping our Creator.

LOVERLY DAY

Had such a lovely day today. Absolutely loved the weather today! It felt a little like Fall!! Yay! Got my first Pumpkin Spice Latte of the season (thanks mom) and had some Culver's Custard (thanks sis). This morning we took a walk around the neighborhood and played at the park for a bit.


Aren't they the cutest? I think so.

Gabe was in the studio all day recording Leigh the Messenger's first album!! How exciting. I cannot wait to hear how it comes out!! We're aiming for it to be out in November, so stayed tuned. And please pray for us in this process. Our prayer is that God would be glorified through it all.

Anyway, just thought I'd share with you a little of our day. Hope your day was fabulous as well.
