Happy Birthday, Dad!

Yesterday was Dad's birthday. We celebrated with Aunt Jean, Jeremy, Leona
and George, and Jennifer and the girls (Donald had to work). We surprised
Dad by inviting them over and making him one of his favorite cakes.
Actually, I think Dad thought they were coming over, but we just said
nothing. The cake was well hidden, thankfully!

Dad's favorite dish (besides BBQ): Chicken Parmesan

Annah asked God for some creativity for Dad's bag. She taped these photos

of Dad on the bag. I think it was a unique idea. Don't worry, she's planning

to take them off!

Mmm! Honey bun cake

George & Nora

Anyone for seconds?

Guess who has a birthday coming soon!

Dad mostly got treats for presents.

Happy birthday, Dad! We love you so much. We appreciate the things

you do for us, big and little, even if sometimes we don't

understand it right away.

"God...has begotten us again unto a living hope."

1 Peter 1:3

Little Notgrass

With mommy and daddy. Audra said that he can hold his
head up already!

She looks tired but very happy.

Safe in Daddy's  arms

New Notgrass

Here he is: Henry Samuel Notgrass!

Avery's little brother.

Pray

Audra Notgrass is getting induced today. Please pray for
guidance for the doctors, a speedy, safe delivery, and a
healthy, happy Henry and mommy.

Here are some other photos of Baby Avery Notgrass.
He was a joy and delight.

With Daddy

John and Audra, we're praying for you and love you!

Waiting

I believe Audra Notgrass is having contractions
which means Henry is on his way. The doctor
said if he doesn't arrive by tomorrow, she will
have to be induced. She doesn't want that.
Please be praying, and also that Henry will be
a healthy little boy.

Avery, you are no longer with us. But we miss you 

and treasure your memory!

Israel Wayne at Family Vision

Last Tuesday we were happy to hear Israel Wayne of
the Wisdom's Gate ministries speak at the Family
Vision Library.  We heard him speak there in
2009, and then he and his family came to John
and Audra's wedding. We were excited to
see him again, and this time he brought his
wife, Brooke and their children with him.

He talked about Biblical Worldview and did a great
job. He spoke on 4 different categories.

Certain subjects he did get people laughing.

Talking so does require a drink for your dry throat.
