Happy Anniversary To Us!

This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118:24

Today, May 17, is our 8 year wedding anniversary. The picture was taken on the plaza at the fountain where Erik proposed. Oh sweet memories of the last 8 years and many more memories to come! We had a great day. We got to see the girls, the weather was beautiful, and we had a fabulous celebration dinner. I only get out once or twice a week, so today was a real treat!

I am now 26 weeks into pregnancy and everything is looking great. We had a complete ultrasound of the girls today. They checked all vital organs and, arms, legs, stomach, heads, etc. They are doing so amazing. They are both weighing in at 2lbs. and all their measurements are putting them a week ahead of schedule. Praise the Lord! We got some great pictures of their sweet faces and even their cute little feet. After seeing the girls and how amazing they are doing I had to ask myself...now why am I not fully trusting God? He continues to answer my prayers and keep my babies safe in His hands. He is in control....as He continually reminds me. We did get a brief look at Ephraim. He's really tiny and although it's just his shell that lay in my womb...it warmed my heart to see his sweet face.

The following bible verse is one that I am meditating on and praying each time I find myself struggling to trust the Lord with my pregnancy and my babies.
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9

So, to celebrate our anniversary we celebrated with dinner at The Melting Pot. YUM!






Here we are in our private booth.













A look at our delicious entree. Shrimp, Steak, Chicken, and Ravioli.












A view of the pot of broth to cook our meats and all the delicious dipping sauces to choose from. A feast!











Trust me, it's delicious!


















My silly Erik agrees, it's yummy!













Dark Chocolate with Dulce De Leche.













Our desserts to dip in the chocolate. Cheesecake, brownies, marshmallows, pound cake, strawberries, and bananas. Am I making you hungry yet? Jealous? Ha ha!








Love you all!
Jamie
