A reason to shop in a slow economy

Hi Ho, Hi Ho, it's off to shop I go...







We are praising the Lord for news of a healthy baby GIRL due October 1st. Just not too sure if the budget will be very happy about it. Of course Edward is already talking about his "baby sis, Eva Mae, (short for Evangeline - Good news; bearer of good news; like an angel)." She will be named after two of my Grandmothers.


1 Samuel 1:27-28a
"For this child I prayed...I now give this child to the Lord. For as long as she lives, she is given to the Lord."

YAY, a little girl! Congratulations! I love the name, that will be so neat for her to be named after both of our grandmothers. Wish they could be here to see their great-grandchildren grow up. So excited for you guys!
