he & she (april 2012)

:.. he and she ..:

She shot another wedding with Bayleigh M. Photography.

He stayed busy with baseball games. 

They spent a weekend in Atlanta.

She got a nice spring break from school.

They continued to watch their vegetables grow!

She was offered and accepted a new job for next year.

He has been the biggest encourager and supporter for her.

And she is grateful for how he continues to point her towards Christ.

And cannot wait to finally be able to eat some!

They welcomed a new niece into the world.

They celebrated the engagement of Drew and Ash this past weekend!

She is seeing a lot more "they's" in these "he and she" posts!  :) 

Great Is Thy Faithfulness

On Sunday at church we sang the hymn "Great Is Thy Faithfulness." I am constantly amazed at how faithful He is no matter what. I love that hymn. I love so many of the words.

"Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not. As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be." 
What a blessing to know that we serve a God who never changes. He is eternal. 

"Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness! Morning by morning, new mercies I see. All I have needed, Thy hand hath provided! Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord unto me!"
As I think back on the last months as a newlywed I can think of all of the "new mercies" I have seen and the blessings that the Lord has poured over our lives. Everything that we have needed, He has provided. This couldn't be more true. Mostly, I have seen it in the tangible and material things. 

However, I am seeing Christ refine me. Unfortunately, I don't always look at that as a good thing. I resist it. As we sang on Sunday, I couldn't stop thinking of how good He is and all that He has provided for Brett and I and how unfaithful I am so often to Him. He gently reminded me that, "He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus." (Philippians 1:6)

Thank you for this promise Lord. I long to be refined and not only refined, but actively changed.

The Weekend Our Lives Got A Little Fuller

Charlotte Elizabeth Blackman has made her entrance into this world. I said several times throughout Lindsey's pregnancy, "How are we going to love another one like we love Virginia?" haha. Well, one of the nurses told us on Friday, "Your heart just grows." I couldn't agree more. From the second I saw that tiny little girl I knew I was hooked........again. :) Here are many many pictures from our weekend.
Just checkin' things out! :) 
Finally, at 1:27 she made her grand entrance....and daddy was hooked. 
 
So in love....
 Time for LiLi, Pop, and Gigi to hold her!
Aunt Amy
This sweet girl is already the best big sister!
Yeah Linds, you totally look like you just went through labor and had a baby. No big deal. :) 
We didn't like our bath too much....
But sunbathing under that warmer sure is nice! :)
 
 
 
Everyone is hooked on this girl! We loved meeting her and are thankful for a safe arrival! 

While mom and dad were at the hospital we had lots of fun playing with this big girl! 
 
  
Her aunts totally love her!! 
 
Time for them to come home from the hospital!!

   
Sweet little toes and fingers....
Kisses from the big sister

 I feel so blessed to be an aunt to two beautiful little girls and our hearts really did grow this weekend! I am so thankful for these two angels!! Linds, you did awesome and Eric, you are an amazing husband and father! I am grateful for your sweet family!!! Love y'all!!

 Mmmm.....

Oh, and Mangs.....I know my heart will only continue to grow in August when Miss Lucy arrives!! EEK!! I am so excited!!

Weekend in ATL

This past weekend Brett and I went to Atlanta to shop, relax, and take in a Braves game. It was so nice to get away and a perfect way to kick off spring break! I did a little video editing from the game.......Again, I'm not the best at it but I'm learning.

Mr. and Mrs. Elmore

This was my second wedding to shoot with Bayleigh M. Photography and it did not disappoint! Jana was so sweet and she and Aaron were so happy that their day had finally arrived! It was one of the most beautiful days that Mobile had seen and a cooler day which made an outside wedding even better! 
I loved her "something blue"--How special!
They chose to have a "first look" and it could not have been sweeter! Aaron was so excited to see his bride!
 
Loved that all the girls wore boots! So fun!

 
 
They were just so happy to be married! 
 
 
Love her face here! :) 



Thank you Aaron and Jana for letting me help Bayleigh! I wish you the best as you begin your life as 
Mr. and Mrs.!
