the merrick family: August 2013
http://themerrickfam.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come." Revelation 4:8. Sunday, August 11, 2013. I must admit it feels like quite a milestone to reach three with our sugar and spice filled middle child. We had an awesome day celebrating with lots of her favorite things. She requested Panera cinnamon crunch bagels for breakfast before church. A girl after my own heart. My girly girl got to go for her very first mani. She loved it! Some of the party goers. Happy birthday, sweet girl!

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come." Revelation 4:8. Thursday, October 2, 2014. A fun filled August and September. On our way back from Branson we stopped to visit our sweet friends, the Kiewiets. The kids hadn't seen each other in two years and they just picked up right where they left off. So sweet. I love this bunch of kids! A donut eating parade. A rousing game of freeze tag. The boys got to have a special sleepover night. Popcorn fun! Langley started ballet...

Thursday, February 21, 2013. Charlie sleeps in his crib for the first time.at 3 months! Good thing Madelyn doesn't remember that she only spent 2 nights in our bedroom! I lay him down awake. And he falls asleep on his own! He has done great sleeping in his room! First time in this contraption. I thought he was going to be too floppy still, but he loved it! Madelyn is such a great helper! I took pictures while she changed his diaper completely on her own. Aftervery proud of herself :). A few cute photos:.

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come." Revelation 4:8. Friday, July 26, 2013. We had an awesome reunion with my fam at the beginning of the month in Telluride. We sure packed a lot in 10 days so I'm giving fair warning, there is an abundance of pictures! Morale was high on the drive to Chicago. After 2 flights and hours of traveling this was our view on the way up the mountain. Bliss. The next day we headed to town for the 4th of July parade. I love them so much.

Tuesday, August 14, 2012. We went to Beavers Bend State Park in Oklahoma with the Obenhaus family. They have two little girls and Rachel is pregnant also so we had the same vacation constraints :) We decided on an outdoorsy trip, well in a nice cabin that is! When we first drove up. Bedtime books with Matt. Train ride through the forest. We saw some deer up close on our ride. Madelyn gave Gwyn her bday present.a ladybug tent, perfect for our vacation. Throwing sticks on to keep the fire burning. Clint ca...

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come." Revelation 4:8. Monday, September 15, 2014. At the end of June the kids and I headed to Telluride to celebrate the 4th and have some sweet family time. We loved every minute of time with our cousins. We went to the hot springs in Ouray one morning. This was the scene on the way home. We celebrated Mom's 60th! We are blessed beyond measure to have her for our mom! We headed to town for the 4th of July parade. Story time with Nana.

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come." Revelation 4:8. Tuesday, February 4, 2014. We headed to one of our favorite places in the world the day after Christmas. It was a wonderful trip but Lisa, Daniel, and Noah were missed terribly. They stayed back in Texas for good reason. Sweet Grayson came pretty soon after we all got home. Luke really took off on the skis this year. It was so fun to see him love it like we do. Mom and Dad still hitting the slopes together. After...

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come." Revelation 4:8. Thursday, April 24, 2014. Sorry for the lack of updates, it is certainly not for lack of activity or news. I'll get to some catch up posts at some point soon. Michael recently asked if I'm done blogging. I'm not, life just sure is busy. Today was Miles' due date. As hard as this day has been to get to and through, I can say with more certainty than ever before, the Lord is good. In a way only the Lord could orche...
