Happy Fall .. my favorite time of the year has just begun...

I love this picture of him ... he is smiling so big that I can't even see his eyes! I said "CHEESE" and this is what I got from him .... taking his picture is so easy now if he is in a good mood.. I love it... Piercen is such a joy. I can't even begin to imagine what life was life without him in our lives.
Check out his HUGE BROWN milk dud eyes... I love them! My favorite pictures of him are honestly the ones I just capture ... no posing ... I love it! He is so full of life and he doesn't miss a thing. He has so many questions and is so inquisitive about everything .... never a dull moment.

It has been months since I have written. It is something, I can log on and check to see if I have email, read all my favorite blogs and even log onto facebook but for the life of me I won't take a few minutes to write on my very own blog. I used to be so good at it. Our days are always so busy and I honestly can't make myself get on my pc anymore when my baby boy is even awake. I found myself spending so much time and it was time I could have been with my family. Now making myself write seems to be a chore.
So .. isn't he so handsome? So adorable? Those BIG brown eyes - love them. He is getting so big! I can hardly believe he is going to be three in a short time. Jeremy & I honestly spend as much time as a family as possible. They are truly the loves I love to be with. I think if I had to tell just one thing that is amazing to me right now is our 'talks'. He will crawl up in my lap and say 'lets talk'... I love it. We carry on HUGE conversations and I learn so much from him. Of course he has a big imagination and I get lots of 'stories' about his friend Joe! He has a make believe friend. I love it!!! Did any of your children or do they now? He cracks me up. The other day he and his friend "Joe" were taking the yellow school bus to drop off "Joe's" dad to work.. I said "Where does he work" and he says to me "At Wal Mart". AND .... the story went on. Cracks me up!
The ministry is still going very well. Jeremy has had some cancellations from now til the end of the year but we have taken this time to plan more outreach ministries and they have been huge blessings. Both personally and to our home church. We have had the opportunity to feed people both physically AND spiritually. God has been so good to us. Reaching out to our community has changed my life. I told Jeremy I KNOW this is something God has called us to do. Our home church family has gotten behind us and support us in such a huge way. Please pray for us, we will be having the next outreach on Monday November 23rd for a Thanksgiving dinner. We pray that God will send 500 for us to feed ... we are expecting and believing! We also hope to be able to hand out groceries so that they can prepare a meal for Thanksgiving if the need is there. I praise God for the work He is doing thru us but in us as well... we serve an awesome God. And when I say that I mean it... I just wanna be a servant... we are here to serve.
I've been reading some awesome blogs lately... it is so crazy how the Lord can use someone a million miles away who I have never met face to face to minister to me... I love it! I just soak it all up like a sponge. God is good! I am thankful for my blogging friends!
I pray you've all had a great weekend and as we enter November I hope to be better at blogging.
love,
Christy
