Showered With Blessings!

This afternoon our family was blessed with a beautiful shower our church threw to honor Little Timothy! Pastor Steve and Mrs. Orman came up with some of the most creative games! The first game: It's Somebody's Name, was very challenging; as we were given 25 phrases which were "hints" of boy names (a beam of sunlight = "ray"), which we had to figure out and write down in a short period of time! Dad actually tied for 1st place (20 correct) with one of the older ladies!!!! Second, we younger girls were given a plastic bag with little sheets of paper on which were the names of the New Testament Books. We were also given a thread and needle, our Job......sew the books in the correct order! Cristin won that game! Post Office was next! We had alot of fun addressing the envelopes to different "biblical cities": depending on what the verse inside said, we would guess what book it was from!

Mama then sat down to open gifts. She was extremely surprised at the many beautiful gifts we were given and at how much time had been put into them!






These cute little trains were on every table. Mrs. Orman had ordered them but they were the wrong color! So she very cleverly turned them inside out and with the help of some ladies, they redecorated them!




The People at church all chipped in to buy Mamma a lovely Rocker Recliner .

Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. (KJV)
