Summer 2013!

Well, I know it's been a long while since we updated and I appreciate so many asking about us and Caleb's status. The last time I posted in May we had reached a decision to not treat Caleb with chemo and to wait. It felt so good to finally reach a decision and feel confident that God had confirmed this decision as we sought His guidance in this for about 6 months. We appreciate all of the fervent prayers that were lifted up asking God for wisdom and peace. What a blessing!
We rested this summer from the weight of all of the decision making and from doctor appointments and from research and etc...it was a lovely break. Below I've written about some of the wonderful things we enjoyed together this summer; however, I do want to fill you in a bit on where we are at this moment in time.
Caleb had a great Endocrinologist (hormone specialist) appointment  last month- so we were super thrilled with that news! We are considering getting a non-sedated MRI for the 1st time for Caleb before the year is up. So we would love prayers for wisdom, yet again, on this new course of action.

So, here's what's been going on!!

1st off--Will T and Kayla's wedding at the end of May!!!!

These two shots are action shots Austin took at the actual wedding. They aren't great quality but I had to put them in!! Look at that grin on Will T's face. They've just been pronounced "Man and Wife!"

And here is Caleb, Annelise and Grayson walking down the aisle. What a special moment. I grew up at Harpeth Hills, got married there, and now my babies are walking down the same aisle. What precious memories I have of this church, and what a gift from the Lord!

 

Annelise getting a squeeze from her big brother. This dress she's wearing was a dress I wore when I was her age.

Mom looked just beautiful in this dress. And I loved her hair up!!!

Grayson is all about the hugs-he gives the best ones! He just turned 2 this June.

silly faces are so fun- Grayson is making his alligator face ;)

Their baby is getting married!

Here's the happy couple at the reception! Kayla changed from a veil to this fascinator and added red lipstick- love it! The reception was lovely and such fun! They had a DJ and lots danced. 

Mom even got out on the dance floor!

Hunter was Will T's best man.

having some fun to the beat!

Alexandria out lasted us all on the dance floor- she literally never took a break! She danced the entire time until the DJ packed up- hilarious!! ;)

Here I am with my two 1st cousins- it was a really sweet weekend with our entire family. Everyone came together to put on the rehearsal dinner and help with all the decorations. Joanna was the florist and made the place look beautiful. 

What a lovely day, Will T. and Kayla! We love you both and pray God's richest blessing!
