Baby Update

I had an ultrasound today and just wanted to share with you all that everything is looking great so far! I am 16 weeks and 2 days. The placenta is right where it should be and baby was moving all over the place! I would share a picture but we couldn't get any that weren't blurry:) Just another reason to be oh so thankful!!

Forever Grateful

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite days throughout the year! This year I have so many things to be so grateful for. Bryce and I have started a list and I will share a few with you:

• Jesus Christ's sacrifice for our sins and the eternal life we have and the country we live in that allows us to openly praise Him.
• Our marriage and the bond that we have
• Our daughter Faith and what she has taught us this year
• My pregnancy 
• Our house that has heat and food.
• Amazing family and friends
• Brown Water Coffee
• And lastly but very important-Our men and women serving our country 

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving and won't be distracted by all the Christmas shopping craziness that is already going on and enjoy the day with your family and friends. 

A Brother or Sister for Faith

I have been so horrible at updating my blog but I just had to wait because I just couldn't keep this news in, so I avoided blogging.Yes, I am pregnant again!! It is really no secret but most that read this live away from us and may not know yet. I just started my 2nd trimester and I am really starting to feel good. I made it past the week that I started having complications with Faith, so that feels good too. We feel so blessed to be able to try again and pray everyday for this baby and my pregnancy to go well. God has taught Bryce and I so much this year about His will, timing, and love for us. We will never understand the "why's" in life but we know that God is good and that He loves us so much. We trust Him with this pregnancy and know that this is His child.  So that is what is new in our lives. This summer was also the launch of Brown Water Coffee! Our best friends Tana and Ricky have had a vision for this business for over a year now and they launched the business in August and it has been amazing! Ricky came to Bryce in February asking if he wanted to be apart of it to do the financial side of it. Bryce had been praying about it since we first heard their vision in December of last year and felt God was calling him to be involved so when Ricky came to him, Bryce knew he needed to do this. It has been a lot of work for them, especially Ricky but we are confident in God's will for this business. The website is www.brownwatercoffee.com For every bag sold Brown Water will give some of the profit to clean water projects. Most people ask where the name came from and it is drinking brown water(coffee) so others don't have to. It's brilliant!!
