July 4th, 2020 AAR

July 4th this year was AMAZING and I am ever so thankful for that.  

My sweet family was able to be together all day. Keith and Kyndal and Jaxon came up, Peyton and Carson brought 2 sweet little guys with them, and Larry, Sami, Grandma (Larry’s mom), and I hosted them.  

It was a day unlike any other and for that I am extremely thankful. 

I knew that there was a high probability that the day was going to get overwhelming for me.  

I was anticipating high emotions for me. I haven’t done well with crowds for the last few years due to anxiety so I was worried that I would do well with that. I knew that we were going to have 3 kids under the age of 3 here as well and we all know how that could go.  

But God! 

God was faithful and answered prayers for the day. 

No tears were shed. The babies all got along amazingly well. My kids were all in good moods. I remained calm throughout the day and was able to enjoy everyone. Conversations were good. 

We shot fireworks and the babies all did great with them.  

We had a fire to roast marshmallows and have some smores.  

I could not have planned it any better had I tried.  

Thank God that He planned it and He executed His plan and we didn’t get in His way. 

My heart went into the day dreading and it came out of the day overflowing with a joy that can only be explained as God. 

I love when God does His thing.  

I love being able to share with others the testimonies that we have of how God has answered prayers, watched over us, allowed us to experience Him in a way that we can share with others.  

The best part is when others see it too.  

So today, July 5th, 2020, I am praising God for His faithfulness, His mercy and grace, and His love for us. am praising Him for everything!
