We spent July 4th in Houston with Kevin's family. Here are some pictures. We got to spend time with a dear friend of Kevin's, Mr. Culpepper who has become a dear friend of mine as well. She also finally met my good friend and college roommate Laurie and her husband, Jeff. I brought my camera in and forgot to take a picture. We were having too much fun! Nora also hung out with her cousins Madelyn, Annabelle and Kyle. Maddie and Annabelle LOVED Nora and were big helpers. They also made her laugh harder than I've ever heard her laugh before. There's a picture of it on the bottom. It was hilarious. We are glad to be home and travel free for a LONG time. Whew.
4th of July....woo hoo. We had to forgoe the fireworks because they were WAY too loud, so she and I stayed inside while everyone else watch them outside...
Mr. Culpepper reading a book to Nora at lunch. He was trying to keep her from crying so I shoved a book in front of her. :)

I'm glad you all survived. I can't believe how big Madeline and Annabelle are. I love Nora's Fourth of July outfit.

I have loved reading over you and Tammy's blogs...Totally related to your motherhood post...I remember my sister telling me that after she had Tori she felt as if she had given birth to her heart...and once it was exposed it ached-a lot. There is something so vulnerable about having a child that exposes something difficult and raw in all of us...

Nora is beautiful...and she has incredible parents who love the Lord and each other and her. May His hand of blessing be over you and your family!

Looks like Nora is having some big fun with her big cousins--that's the biggest smile I've ever seen!

Glad y'all had fun in Houston for the fourth. Looks like my supposed trip to TN isn't going to work out for August....but, maybe Mark and I can both come in the fall? I'll keep you posted.

Oh, and I love NKC's red,white, and blue!!
