Craft Time For Emma Grace

When I was little my mom use to do crafts with us all the time, and I have very fond memories of these times together.  So, I try my hardest to plan activities for the kids.  Sometimes Taylor does not get into them, but my Emma Grace loves them very much.  I found these little nested box set at Michales for only about $6.00, and she had a blast painting for hours.  I am going to use them to decorate our book shelves in the playroom. 



Sibling Love

These two have been playing so very well together since our move to Atlanta.  Probably a result of the lack of options!  I know they are very excited to be moving into our new house this weekend so they can start making neighborhood friends.  I am very grateful for this time they have had to bond together. 

Daddy's New Work

I thought this was the cutest picture of the kids on the mickey mouse at daddy's new work.  We had the best time at the IT picnic.  We are so proud of Ryan for finding a company he loves working for!

Helen, Georgia Park

We also found a park to have a picnic in, and let the kids run around.  It was only about 120 degrees but it really wore the kids out!  And us, we were ready for a nap after all that. 

VBS Done Up Right

These are some pictures from the VBS appreciation lunch that I attended last Friday for helping volunteer with teaching VBS. it was so nice of the staff to appreciate us like this. This wonderful church that we have found has the best children's ministries and I think it will be our new church home. It is bigger than I ever thought we would go to nut they dont mess around when it comes to anything. Praise is awesome, their small groups seem wonderful, their children's ministries are the best I have ever witnessed, the people are so friendly. We got invited to a play date today with a group of moms and kids and had the best time.

Helen, Georgia

On Saturday we packed up the kids and went on a good old fashion Coble Family adventure. We went to the strange little quaint town called Helen, GA. Apparently in the 1960 when the town determined that the gold had all been found, they decided they better do something to keep their town alive. So they planned it as a resort type town to reflect being in Germany. I really wish I know how that town hall meeting went. Someone would have laughed at me if I would have suggested such a thing.

It is at the foothills of The Great Smoky Mountains. It was kind of a surreal experience, because it was a very strange town out in the middle of nowhere. It was much like Branson, MO. We enjoyed out time there, and we got to spend some time driving around the national forest. While out and about a big black bear cub ran right out in front of our car.

10 Months Old

This time last year I had just been put on bed rest to wait the summer away. It was so very boring, and trying on our family. I watched every episode of The Cosby’s that was ever made. I learned how different Emma Grace was from her big brother Taylor. I learned how unfortunate kidney stones are. I learned to depend on friends and family, which I have never been good at. Had it not been for my sisters daily entertainment I know for certain I would not have made it through those long boring days.

But, only was it through lots of prayers and the grace of God that I did not deliver my precious babies 12 weeks early. I can’t believe that they are now 10 months old. I love them so much.
