Scott and I at the 3 day Evangelism Conference
held at the Algonquin Hotel in St Andrew's, NB- Scott's Mom and Dad took emily for 4 days so we could go- THANKS SOOO MUCH!!
We had a terrific time, we were refreshed and challenged!!
Worship Time with the Worship Team from Apohaqui, NB

Fancy Lobby:)
Really Fancy....
Meal time- here we are at a pretty empty table with Dale Mitchell who's eating the whole plate of butter:P, and Katie Jewitt- the meals were yummy and again...fancy:)
Our Speaker - John Stackhouse, Theology Proffessor from Regent College in Vancouver,
and Malcolm Bekkett, a senior staff member of the Atlantic Baptist Convention
Malcolm, coming to scold me for taking pictures of him
and I just kept taking them- it was really funny:)

My newest scrap pages- this one, "My" is all about my life right now- I thought it wise to take a snapshot of the present to remember in the future- a very different page for me- esp since most of my pages are about Emily!:)
(Again, I'm sorry about the orientation, I just cannot figure it out!)

1 Day in Halifax!

Scott and I came "home" for one day to catch the end of Matt Walsh's ordination, and have an early Thanksgiving with our families. I was able to spend the morning at Starbucks with some of my favorite girls and a new batch of babies I hadn't seen yet!! It was great to catch up with these sweet ladies and hold their new babies! I didn't bring Emily (toddler+chapters=potential disaster), BUT Scott was at Kent next door and so he brought her in to visit us- it was so nice that the girls got to see my precious girl as well- what a great day:), and what a blessing to all be in the same place at the same time to see each other (Thanks to Jordan Allen's wedding:).

The girls at Starbucks
Me, Steph, and Sarah's Benjamin- 6 weeks-ish

Leila Allen (who was here from Calgary- so nice to see her!)
and Steph's Caleb- about 3 months old

Emily yesterday on the couch sitting like a big girl "reading"- look at those lips!:)
She's really looking like a big girl- some pics like this are a reminder of that!

Emily Burned Her Hand:( and Some Belly Pics

If you click on the picture to make it bigger, you can see the burn on her hand across her knuckles- she touched a lightbulb by accident with the back of her hand- after cooling it with cold water, we took her to the local hospital to get the blister wrapped and prevent infection.
Our poor baby:(

All ready to go to the hospital past bedtime

"Where am I, out and about in my PJs?"
"Oooooo" (getting special burn ointment)


"What is this?"
Her little hand was wrapped up like a boxer's:)
(Above- Needing some cuddles from Daddy)


"Look at my special hand!"
My poor baby:(
Playing with her "boxer" hand:)


Straight hair for a day and my belly at 32 weeks- only 8 weeks to go!!
(Sorry that my shirt doesn't cover and my maternity pants are falling down- welcome to pregnancy-hehe:)

Happy Couple:)



On the way home Scott took this video of Emmy and her hand- and her animal sounds:)- which you should feel privileged to see and hear cuz she doesn't always do these things on command!:)
