UNITE Women's Conference!

This past weekend we headed to Georgia for my sister's first women's conference since she and her husband became senior pastors. Lisa Bevere spoke and my favorite worship leader, Rachel Campbell, led worship! It was an amazing weekend and I am so glad we got to be apart of it!! Here are some pictures from the weekend and check out http://www.trinitychapel.org/

Next time we see the Bolin's we will all be in DISNEY!!!!!!!

Father, Daughter, Granddaughter Trip

Ever since my sister and I were little my dad has always taken us on annual father-daughter trips. I remember going to an Orioles game, the zoo, the beach, and my all time favorite...a spur of the moment weekend trip to Disney World!! (My dad's the best, by the way!)

So last week we kept the tradition going and my dad took me and Ava to the mountains..to Tweetsie Railroad. It had been a long time since we had been and it is such a cute, clean place! Ava and Grandman waiting for the Daniel Boone Inn to open for lunch. It was well worth the wait. That was probably the best fried chicken I have ever had!!Ava read the map of Tweetsie during lunch so we would know how to get around! :)Sitting on the horsies at Tweetsie! And one of the many rides on the carousel! Ava waved the whole time!

Thank you Grandman for such a fun trip!! Ava has not stopped saying "Man-Man" all day!

Let the Countdown Begin...Again!

5 YEARS!!!

Last night David and I celebrated our 5th anniversary! 5 years??? I can honestly say I don't remember much about my life before I met David. I remember the first time I saw him. We were both with our friends at a resturant and as soon as I saw him I just knew, "that's him". It gives me chills now thinking about how that was one of the clearest moments of my life. I just knew!! 5 years later and I still have that feeling when I see him! He's a wonderful husband and daddy! Ava and I are the luckiest girls in the world!!

Busy Girl

Ava has been keeping us very busy lately! David and my uncle Dennis put together a swing set for Ava in our backyard. Here's David and Ava putting the finishing touches on her sandbox...

She has also recently discovered how much fun the ceiling fan can be! She thinks it is amazing when David turns the light on and off with the little cord.

And her most favorite hiding place...

My bathroom cabinet! She spends lots of time playing in there while I am getting ready in the morning. Yes, that is a pregnancy test she is playing with and yes, it is old! I do not plan on using that for a while!! One is enough for us right now!!

If you know anything about Wilson you will know that it is a miracle in itself that this made it into the paper! God is doing a "new thing" in this city and I'm so proud to be a member of New Beginnings!!

18 Months!!??!

So Ava is the big 18 months old today! That just sounds so grown up to me!!! Here she is in all her 18 month glory!

Gigi and Grandman took us out to lunch today to celebrate! I am so thankful that I am getting to enjoy these fun times at home with Ava. She is changing everyday!! She is at the point now where she will repeat everything you say! Her favorite words right now are "uh-oh" and "da-da". She has the dreamiest look in her eyes when she says "da-da". I guess she will always be a daddy's girl!!

Happy 1/2 birthday sweet girl!
