I LOVE these people!!! Our Life Group is made up of so many different personalities, ages and family dynamics, but it totally works for us. Each member has so much to bring to our discussions...serious or fun :) We laugh, we cry and we are there for each other through the highs and lows of life.

We had a fabulous dinner at the Vicker's home. We all had babysitters for the kids at our own homes so we could really concentrate on each other. (Did I mention we have A LOT of kids???) I took couple pictures that evening, but being the good hostess' they were I never did get the Vickers! And the Westerman's and Daniel's ended up not being able to make it:(


Josh and Kara

Kevin and Kim

Philip and Heidi

These boys are crazy

Chris and Amy

Chad and Laura

Table 1

Table 2

A fun time was had by all. If you look at the table pics, you can see our super cool elder team Ken and Marilyn Switzer that come to our group a lot. We enjoy there perspective on things and insight into the history of OC.

Pajamas and Popicles

Our super cool, always wanting to be fun life group had a pajama party!!! Heidi made an INCREDIBLE breakfast (for dinner) and we just had fun hanging out

Look at all those sweet girls

Lexi even had a lovey that matched her pj's

All the girls and boys...they humor us

Rain once again spoiled our outdoor plans...B's Popsicle party had to be moved inside:( The kids still had fun and recited ALL their bible verses from the whole year

You can barely see the bottom, but we did this apron for Dele's present. One super talented mom put a watering can applique and embroidered the kids names as stems. I helped get their hand prints as flowers and the top said Mrs. Dele's garden. SHE LOVED IT

I could not have asked for a better year for my sweet girl. Dele is such a special person to our family. She has helped Baylor in so many ways

We had a Life Group Thanksgiving meal the week before at the Houston's house. Heidi made everything look so pretty and made the kids the cutest turkey utensil holders:) Everyone brought something to the meal and it was ALL fabulous. We had so much fun and can't wait to do it next year...Jeff and Christian had to miss out since C was so sick:(




Fenley and Nathan tackle the drumstick






Our great hosts...Thanks guys













The group minus Jeff and Christian.
This has been an amazing year and I can't wait to see where this next one takes our group. We know it will involve increasing our # by two more girls when Gracie and baby Houston make their way into the world.
