He's a Little late...but that's OK

Nine months has come and gone..and he is finnaly here!

I am not sure how Asher's mommy feels about  him being here but I do know that I am one happy aunt.

Here is how it all started...

One day my sister text me and said "I have something to tell you" then my heart kind of dropped for a few seconds and then I replied "your pregnant" just saying that as a joke, but BOY was I wrong.

I have a big mouth and like to talk about lots of things and the next text was "YES, but you can't tell anyone".. talk about something hard for me to keep that was it!!!

So then, as the months went on everyone wonders what the sex of the baby will be and we dont have any boys in the family (poor dad) so when we found out it was a boy we were all super excited!!! To let us know what it was the all gave us one of those bubblegum cigars. Once I saw the color blue kee-kee was HAPPY!!

 

Yes, I ate mine and it was good for about point five seconds and the flavor was gone.

I love to take pictures and I try to make them look like a professioanl took them but they arent that great, but anyways I decide i wanted to take some maternity pictures. So one day my sister comes over and i get busy snapping pictures. With a little editing I think they turned out pretty good.

I was gone two months out of her pregnancey and as I would always skype with her I wouldmake her stand up so I could see how big she was getting!! Nothing compared to when I saw her for the first time in person!

Asher was late and my sister asked if I would rather get the call in the middle of the nght to go to the hospital or go to her house and watch the girls..in my mind I was thinking a call in the middle of the night YEAH RIGHT!! BUT sunday, October 9 I got a call at 5:30 but slept right thru it until my dad comes and tells me that she is on the way to the hospital and they are watching the girls. So later that afternoon the Ezells welcome the most handsome little boy into the world!!!   

Special Friends

This past summer I made friends that I know will last a lifetime. I laughed, cried and talked very deep with these people. As I tell you all this, I took a small weekend trip to see one of my BEST friends in the big and so different place of Saint Paul, Minnesota. I have only flown once prior but I put on my big girl pants and flew by myself to see Annie!

Once my plane landed I was SO happy to see this sweet girl standing at the end of the stairs!!

So the next couple of days we had amazing things planned!!! We took a visit to the twins baseball game and unfortunately they lost but it was great to spend them time with my two friends that I met this summer!!

The next couple of days..We went to the lake and bowling and to some horrible play to support her friend, but I can't forget the state fair!!

I took LOTS more pictures but they dont compare to the FUN and EXCITING time I had seeing one of my BEST friends that will always have a place in my heart!!!

The Tower

This is where we put all of the snacks..

We used frying pans to put the food in.

Pascal made out of poster board.

~all TANGLED up~

Happy Birthday to Edy!

Come and lets get tangled up in fun as Edy turned four! As me and brittany planned for this years party we wondered what could be better than last year's Areil under the sea party...so...

As I was coming home from the atlanta airport me and edy watched tangled and she knows EVERY word.

As, my mom and I planned we want every birthday to be special and since I dont have any kids I have the best job in the world and that is an aunt. You can be that other mother but then you can be the best friend to or the horse that rides around on all fours and ride two little girls on your back. So if  you know me at all I LOVE to plan and hate anything that isnt planned out. So I started to get tangled up and get the best party decorations a piece of cardboard can make!!

This is all of the party stuff all over the dining room.

My mother and I tried to remember what scene went where and how they looked..So we googled and watched certain parts to make this birthday party just like a four year old would want it to be.

When I look at this picture all I can think of is them  singing


So, I have more pictures but I am having trouble loading them so it might come as a later post!!

Are you tangled in fun?

~Coming Home~

So as most of you know, I have been out of the country this summer doing mission work. Can I just say that it was the BEST summer of my life so far. I was sad to leave and sad to come home but I had all of  these weird emotions going on inside of me. So, we say good bye to our people that we have all come to love so dearly and head to debrief, where we just chill and talk about our awesome experience.

So as all good things come to an end, we all head to our houses. My parents came to pick me up at the airport and I was so happy to see them....in fact I cried but thats no surprise! So on the way home I was under the impression that I could sleep all four hours home.....WRONG!! My niece talked ALL the way home. Telling me everything that has happened and that makes a four year old happy the two months I was gone.

Once we pull into the drive way I was supp\er happy to be in  Dothan, Al. and  to be in my "home". Once out of the car we walk inside where I found my grandparents and my sister with her children. So then my dad says, "Kellie, let me help you take your luggage upstairs." In my mind I am thinking "that is so nice becuase it's almost 50 pounds and i am tired of that suitcase..pleasle!!" I walk to my room and look behind me I found my entire family follow..I was "thinking what the heck is in my room...." I open the door and this is what i find........

~These are my lamps on my night stands!~

Let it RAIN!

Who knew prayer walking could be so powerful? Today we split up into two different teams and did two different things: one groups went door to door and the other group(my group) prayer walked. A few days ago during team time my eyes were opened to the things that go on in the barrios where we visit. So, today as I went around and prayer walked, I feel like I can honestly say for the first time my heart was in the right place so I could truly pray for these people and truly listen to what God had and has to say for my life and the people of the barrio’s.  My eyes are opened in a new way only because I feel that God allowed my heart to be completely his and allowed me to pray and declare truth over these people.

When we headed back we just all felt compelled to just stand and pray over the whole entire barrios.
I come to you, asking that you will join my team to pray over the barrios and that the love of God will just out pour and the can feel convictions when they need it and they can feel the love of God.

~Don't dance in the street~

So we FINALLY made it!! My first week in Nicaraua has been probably been the best week of my entire life! That night we land in Managua i was thinking what in the world have I gotten myself into, but now i am loving life!! the next day we went into the barrios and the kids were so much fun!! My team and I swung them around and just enjoyed every minute of it. As we walked around the barrios we just prayed over the house and asked that God would bring healing over them! I know that this is a short blog but just to let you know i am alive and i am loving every minute of it!



Busy, Busy, Busy!!!
