Heidi's first prayer

I think Heidi has tried to pray before, but it was usually just mumbled words that we couldn't understand. Tonight though, she asked to pray after we had said a prayer at bedtime. So her prayer sounded something like this: "Thank you for Daddy and Mommy and toys and bunnies and Momma bunny and baby bunny and Elmo and bears!" It was sooooo sweet! I love that girl!

My Surprise 30th Birthday Party!

My husband is a sweetie! He planned a surprise party for me and I had no idea!

We just bought a grill the week of the party and so we had talked about "breaking it in". I asked Clint if he wanted to invite someone over to use it. Little did I know he had already invited a bunch of people over to help us break it in! So he made up a story about some friends of ours coming over and we started setting the table and he had the grill fired up. A little after noon, I happened to look out the window and saw our friends Josh and Amanda and their two kids walking up to the house. Our neighborhood was having a garage sale so there were a lot of people in the neighborhood that day. I told Clint, "Oh, maybe they were looking at the garage sales and decided to stop by." Ha ha... then, I saw several other people following them. I went to the door and when they came in they said, "Happy Birthday!" I was still unsure what was going on for a few seconds... I was pretty shocked! But then I realized what was going on... I was shaking and nervous and I started crying! I was a mess! But they were happy tears! Here are some pictures from that day. If I could post all the pictures I have from that day I would, but that would make this blog post really long. So if you want to look at more photos check out my Flickr site! :) The link is on the left.
