Announcing...

I mailed Colson's announcements Friday and could not WAIT to share them with you! He was eight days old in these pics, and he already looks so different. Lisa did an amazing job as always. Thanks, Lisa!
Colson in a basket on the red trunk. Ha! I'm SO glad we went with red. ; )
I am thrilled with how they turned out!

From the day Colson was born the song "Great Are You Lord" has been playing in my head over and over. I love it. It sums up just how I feel about our new little man.


The LORD has given, and the LORD has taken away! May the name of the LORD be praised.

Job 1:21

    WOW! Katie, they are beautiful! I LOVE the verse from Psalm you used. And also the one from Job is so perfect. The verses you use in your posts are always so fitting and your words along with HIS words always touch my heart. Thank you. Your strength is amazing.

    I love it, but I'm having a hard time viewing your page. Your background is not coming through and the photobucket message makes it very hard to read.
