LeTs CeLeBrAtE!!!


Friday afternoon the Genetics Counselor from Children's called with the blood work for Halle.  They retested a lot of things we have already gotten results for and AGAIN they came back perfect!
PRAISE JESUS!

They also got the blood work back for the genetic/chromosome testing.  Halle still tested positive for William Syndrome.  They amazing news is that ALL other chromosomes are perfect!  There aren't any duplicates, extras, deleted, etc.  They also determined that there is only 1.4 missing from the 7th chromosome.  There is a long arm and a short arm in every chromosome.  The short arm is PERFECT and the long arm is only missing 1.4.  They actually are calling this a micro deletion because there is such a small amount missing.  
All that science terminology to say...God is literally healing Halle in front of our eyes!  We are contending that that 7th chromosome will continue to fill in until it is PERFECT!

PRAISE JESUS!!

Megan and Chase's Wedding

The Ceremony
Amazing flowers to go with the sunset service...
I got to help Kinsley go down the isle and then let my kids entertain her. My kids were beyond please to play with this sweet girl. She did a great job getting down the isle and stealing the show!
Dancing and Desserts!
We are beyond excited for what God has planned for Megan, Chase and Kinsley. Thanks for letting us be apart of your wedding and marriage.

Sharks..first game!

First NYSA game...check out the matching coaches shirts!
So our team played the mini-pro team under 7! They literally scored over 10 points on us in the first half, were doing push-ups and jumping jacks while waiting to go on the field, and beyond amazing on the field! This is the half-time shot where Brian was giving them a pep talk:-)
Despite the score we were thrilled with our boys hard work! They did an amazing job, were super competitive, and had improved a ton from last season. Port said, "Why were you and aunt Kourtney jumping up and down when we scored!" Because we love you guys Port Robert! These are mighty men and we can't wait to see how you grow this fall!

Dragon-Sharks

Haynes team is still with the YMCA this fall. They unfortunately got the poop brown shirts. We considered dying them...but realized that wouldn't help much.
Our kids have improved so much in just a year! Haynes scored two goals and did great. We played Hayes Gladhill's team which was fun seeing all our friends.
Best Buddies
I just love how God has given each of my boys amazing friends. These two are super special buddies. Last week Beau was sick and didn't get to make it to school. His first response was, "But what about Haynes!"
Love them!!

Setting up

My cousin, Megan, got married at my parents house this weekend. We went and helped them set up on Friday afternoon. I wasn't sure how much help we would be since I brought 4 kids with me...they actually did a great job! Ella played in the sandbox and drank Lolli's icy. Port emptied all the coke cans for the get-away car...drank a few I'm sure. Haynes actually helped set up these chairs and grabbed a few drinks of the sodas too. They were great helpers and my mom did an AMAZING job!

Happy Birthday Dax!!

Friday was Dax's 6th birthday! Port got to join their family breakfast at Chick-fil-a. I had to miss Dax's cool party at the OU Baseball field, but my kids and husband rated it as the best ever. We love you Dax Man!

Love them

Halle had a few rough nights last week. Praise Jesus she is back to sleeping through the nights this week! I was up early and took this sweet picture of Brian with her. She is truly our best cuddler of all our kids. We don't complain too much about that:-)
Last week I told him that when I can't get her to fall asleep by herself, I will put my pillow I sleep with beside her and she falls asleep immediately. I said she just wants me near at all times! Brian thought I was nuts, but tried it this weekend...it worked:-)
