Birthday Weekend

Thank you for all the birthday wishes, cards and also gifts. I had a wonderful birthday that extended into the weekend. Davy and I went to dinner at my new favorite place, The Olive Garden, due to my recent pasta cravings. He also surprised me with this adorable little cake that had a train going over a mountain since we decorated the nursery in trains.

Of course he put trick candles on the cake =)

It was really good cake. You could even eat the rocks which were jelly beans.

I also dragged Davy shopping for my birthday which he was very patient and even faked that he was enjoying himself. Thanks to several gift cards for my birthday to Babies R' US I was able to get our travel system. It is a jogging stroller and car seat combination. So in between the football games I had Davy put the stroller together. (of course not during the UT game)

Grace Church

Last Sunday morning was the first worship service for Grace Presbyterian in our new church building. Here are few pictures of the inside being built out and also Davy building the stage for the church…

"Labor" Day Events

We had a productive Labor Day holiday getting ready for my "Labor Day" which is quickly approaching in 14 weeks. Davy worked hard on refinishing the dresser a few weeks ago so I could paint it white this past weekend to match the other furniture for the nursery. The dresser was a gift from Grandma Stephenson and we are so thankful to be able to use it.

Davy also installed a chair rail around the nursery wall so we could paint the bottom half of the room Navy Blue to match the train bedding. I am continually amazed at Davy's carpentry abilities and so thankful to be married to such a gifted man.
