We celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversay this past Friday (the 16th).  Van surprised me with beautiful flowers and balloons!  I can’t think of a more joyous way to spend our anniversary than at home with our daughter, and that is exactly what we did!

Our church brought over some things on Sunday.  They had a rose on the altar for Ashley and mentioned her in the bulletin.  As we weren’t able to make it to the service, a lady from the church brought over the rose and a copy of the bulletin.  She also brought Ashley a prayer blanket that was crocheted by ladies at the church and placed on the chancel rail so members of the congregation could pray for her.  Oh, and she brought her a Tiny Testament (the smallest bible I’ve ever seen!).  We are so blessed!
