This is a very exciting post for me. I have so much news to share and don't know where to begin.....
I am thrilled to say that I am feeling so much better and am now seizure free. I have been taken off all of the meds and can not begin to say how much better I feel. A "new" person would describe it well :-) Thanks for all of your prayers and concern. God is truely moving and working miracles for us.
After many prayers, I have been blessed with a new job. The new job was an absolute blessing and I know that I am going to be very happy where God has placed me. I will miss those sweet little faces at Montessori but I really feel that this move is exactly right..
I am working for a fantastic ministry. It is called Child Evangelism Fellowship. You can go here or here to read more about it. My official job title is: Office Manager. But, you know me, that sounds a little formal. HA! I am excited that I will in some way being doing just a small part of God's work through this. I am thrilled to be working in a christian environment and also back in an office which is what I love and have always done.
I will also be volunteering at Frazer (my church) in a way that is quite personal to me, food pantry and clothing ministry. I remember quite well how those ministries so helped us when I was growing up.
Another new thing I am doing is working - actually volunteering - in the kitchen on Tuesday nights at my church for the singles event TNT or "Tuesday night Together". It has been a wonderful and fun experience for me.
One side note: this Tuesday, June 30th is Spirit Night at Chick-fil-a. Proceeds from the sales from 5-9pm (as long as you let them know who you are there for) will go towards this wonderful ministry.

Orange Beach
We took a much needed relaxing vacation to the beach last week. The weather was perfect and our moods were all great. We had a wonderful time enjoying the sand and the ocean (and doing a few other fun things). It was by far one of our best beach trips ever!
Where we stayed
I used a filter on a software program I have to create this sketch like picture of our condo!Tuesday, June 16, 2009
Gulf Shores
We took a break from the beach and took the kids to The Track in Gulf Shores. They had a blast. We rode bumper boats and did the go carts several times. The kids rode all the kid rides and Sean even got a chance to drive his own go cart. We drove to Foley another day for a little outlet mall shopping.

We were not late for THIS very important date!
The Mad Hatter's Tea Party
by The Party Palace
the Queen of Hearts
Lily with Alice and the Queen
Sean and Tyler: boys have fun too!
Sophia Grace

Sean and E.G.
Everyone had a blast!
thank you Party Palace!
We had so much fun on Saturday at the Mad Hatter's tea party! Alice was there to greet the children as they each took a seat around the table for a grand tea party. Later the children helped Alice find the white rabbit and even painted the white roses red. But this did not sit well with the Queen of Hearts as she came out screaming "off with their heads"! The kids were entertained by Alice and the Queen and each had an opportunity to take pictures with them. It was a day will not soon forget.

Double Trouble
Sean and Sophia
These two are absolutely inseparable. There is a wonderful story about our pregnancies with them which my sister and I love to share. Our due dates were two weeks apart so these two have been best pals since birth. I used to lay Sophie on my belly before Sean was born. She has always loved to "hug" her cousin. They truly have a special bond as do my sister and I.
Two sweet sisters visit the Murphys
Sean and Lily absolutely adore these two girls. They are my best friend's daughters and stayed two days with us. They are just the sweetest girls and are such a big help to me with the kids. I took all of the kids out for a fun photo shoot and snapped these and much more. We also went to the Art museum and out to lunch.
