Prayer Request

This post brings sad news from our family and a great need for prayer. On Saturday, Tim, Addison, and I spent the day in Evansville with Alex and Tera enjoying the Parade of Homes. (Our girls spent the day with their grandparents camping.) Once we were all back home and getting ready for bed, we received a very sad phone call that Tim's cousin Andre' (Alex's brother) and his family were in a very serious car accident. In an instant, everything that happened that day and the plans we had been making for Father's Day seemed so insignificant. The world just seemed to stop and you couldn't and still can't begin to imagine what Andre's family is going through right now. Tera has been keeping her blog September Sweeties updated with all of the information regarding the accident and recovery process. We are so thankful for God's hand in this situation and ask for anyone to lift the family up in prayer.

Because Alex and Tera are spending time with Andre', Mandi, and Gabe, we offered to keep Braylee until they returned. Sydney and Braylee are the best of friends and were so excited they would be spending the night together. The girls have had so much fun together!! On Sunday, after church, we went to Grammy's to eat and swim. Then today, the girls went to tennis camp, played with play dough, enjoyed a picnic lunch, made cards for Gabe, and played in the pool/sprinkler. Though I know Braylee had lots of fun with Sydney, she greatly misses her mommy and daddy. Please also remember the little ones going through this difficult time.

My goodness that is some bad luck. Promise me that you and Tim and the girls won't drive for awhile! I hope everyone is/will be okay. My prayers are with your family!
