The girls were born on November 16th, 2007, 16 weeks early. Mallory Kate – 1 lb 8 oz, Evan Reese – 1 lb 1 oz, and Kelby Grace – 1 lb 5 oz. Upon their delivery, Mallory and Kelby were transferred to St. David’s South and were doing fairly well considering the circumstances. Our little Evan Reese was a fighter, but she had a lot of problems and she was with us for about 5 hours. We love you Evan and we miss you everyday, but we know we’ll see you again one day. Mallory and Kelby both went through a lot in their 105 day stay in the hospital, from heart surgeries, to brain bleeds, to infections. Many prayers were answered and we thank God everyday for everything He has done for them. Today they are perfectly healthy and growing bigger and stronger everyday. We started this blog to keep everybody updated on their progress. You can scroll down to the bottom of the page for a slideshow from the NICU days.

Catch Up & Kerrie's Wedding

Once again this summer brought another family Wedding. Jeremy's cousin Kerrie got married at the end of July to Tyler DeHay. It was the most beautiful wedding and Kerrie looked gorgeous! It was great to see all of Jeremy's extended family and celebrate with Tyler and Kerrie on their special day. The girls loved dancing and playing with their cousins.

Catch Up & BYBC

Oh my goodness! Has it really been almost four months since our last post? WOW! so sorry to any fans we still have left out there in blog-ville. Sadly once the craziness of this summer slowed down I was totally out of the habit of blogging that it got pushed further and further down the to-do list. I am currently monitoring nap time, and after checking email, figured I would blog a bit.

Where to begin?

July:
We hosted a backyard bible club (BYBC) for out church this summer and had a BLAST!! BYBC is our church's version of vacation bible school with a twist, instead of meeting at church the meet in neighborhoods around the city. Kids from our high school youth group volunteer to come around to each house and teach the elementary kids about God. Going into it I knew it would be fun, but was not at all prepared to be blown away by how much these high school kids truly love Jesus and their ability to get the younger kids on fire for him every evening in the 100+ degree weather. It was absolutely amazing!!! We can't wait to host another BYBC next summer!
