~God of Wonders~

Today's post is several fold...for starters let me post some pics of my new niece, Logan Grace Holmes who was born July 21st and I have neglected to put up here. I encouraged Jessica her whole pregnancy and we both prayed that she would have a quick and easy delivery in spite of what everyone said to her and all of the natural anxiety and of course the fear others try to instill in you when you are about to pop from being pregnant. Everyone likes to share horror stories. Anyway, God totally answered out prayers in a big way. From the time she STARTED her contractions to the time Logan was OUT was probably not even 3 hours!!! She barely made it to the hospital in time. We got out of bed to get there thinking we would be there with her while she was in labor and she had dang already had the baby :) Anyway, we are elated to have finally met the cute little girl that Averi is going to grow up with and be so close to!! Here are some pics of the happy family and me and Averi with the new mommy and baby after we drug ourselves out of bed :D

Youth conference was last Wednesday thru Friday nights and it was UNBELIEVABLE!!  God moved in such a mighty way!  I was amazed at how thirsty our youth are for a living God and experiencing him in a real way.  I know many lives were changed.  

Speaking of the youth conference....Braylin designed a "cut" for Tavner and he actually went through with it.  Here is a picture of Tavner's new hair.

I know you can't believe he would do something like this, but he's always a shocker ;)  I love you honey!  Way to sport "REVOLUTION!"
