Cash Wembley...

Well folks, after two months of having little Cash in my home I've decided that I'm just not the best mom for him. I couldn't have asked for a sweeter little man. But, the truth is he's just not catching on to life with a Fairy Princess. After thoughtfully weighing my options, I have decided to send him to the one place I know he will be treated just as well as he would if I kept him as my own. Yep, he's now officially a Brown. Cash Wembley Brown. My best friend has welcomed him to her family with open arms. He now has a full house of folks to adore him and two big brothers to teach him the ropes. The best part is, I'll still get to be a part of his life. Everyone knows (with the exception of Ms Diva starbucks) I'm a better auntie anyhow! Thank you Kim for stepping in where I could not. I love you. Congrats on your new little boy!!! Too sweet....

Me and the little man....

This Weekend...

I had so much fun this weekend! I went to see Nightmare Before Christmas in 3D and have dinner with friends on Friday. WICKED on Saturday with Aunt Barb. Apple orchards and pumpkin carving with the girls on Sunday. What an incredible weekend! How lucky am I?

I hope everyone is enjoying this fall season like I am. As much as I truly HATE winter, there is something about this time of year that restores my hope. I love to see leaves change. It reminds me that we are here for a short time and we need to make the most of every opportunity...

I went to a pumpkin farm with the puppies this week. We had a blast and we took some cute photos. I love this time of year!

All of my "Baptism Buddies" at SoulFeast 2006

SoulFeast 2006

I can't describe how much my heart needed this getaway. What an awesome thing to be reminded of your true identity. I am a child of God. The creator of all things calls me "family". Such an amazing gift. I was reminded yet again, that He is all I'll ever need. I forget that sometimes, and become lost in my own longings. God spoke to me this weekend and he calmed an unsteady soul.
In celebration of my rejuvenated commitment to Christ, I was baptized on Saturday night. In true Fairy Princess Fashion, I was "dunked" in the hotel's hot tub! How great is that?!?
My beautiful sister cradled me as I went under the warm water. I was surrounded by loving friends. I died with Christ, and was raised to walk in new life with Him... I will forever be altered by this weekend with the ladies of Willow.
