No Baby Yet!

We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Gary Edward Bevers. The last doctor estimated that he would come this weekend, but I went today, and she said maybe next week. Beau and I are still hoping that tonight or tomorrow will be the time of arrival. We are as ready as we will get, I suppose! James is excited to be a big brother and we are anxious to see how he does with a new little one around. We are anticipating lots of wonderful family coming into town. Many have not seen our new home or met the wonderful people who make up Providence Village Baptist Church.

Greetings From Florida

Hello Friends! We are so sorry it has been so long since we have updated this blog! We made the transition to Florida and are loving all that we have experienced so far. We do not have highspeed internet so it is difficult to add new and exciting pictures, but we will try and get them to you as soon as we can. Here are some to get started.

On our way to FL we stayed in Alabama.

James loved looking at the old ships and planes from WW2!

This it the front of Providence Village Baptist Church.

It is a beautiful church filled with precious, warm, and exciting people.

We have enjoyed getting to know each and every one of their sweet families.

Sign on the Beau's first Sunday to preach.

James and Beau happy to be in Daddy's new office!

Dalton is one of James' favorite new friends. He, as you can see, allows James to play rough with him and lets him wear his football helmet!!

James is Dalton's shadow and he lights up when Dalton is around!

Sweet new friend Destiny!

James and good buddy Aidan!

Petting the new colt! James is learning to love the country!

James shows off his muscles!

It's Official!!

As of this morning, Beau is the pastor of Providence Village Baptist Church! We are thrilled to be part of this warm and loving family of believers! Beau, James, and I flew to Florida on Thursday and have been enjoying meeting the members and exploring the area. We took James to see The Florida Gator Swamp as they proudly call it (James calls it the football house). He and Daddy walked down next to the field. His eyes were so big and excited. We have also been shaking hands and hugging necks. They have all welcomed us with such loving arms and have shown real excitement for what the Lord has in store for the future of the church! Thank you for your prayers and please continue to pray for our little family as we make the BIG move to Northern Florida!!

Beach Fun!

This past weekend James and I went with Aunt Jenny, Oma, and Pops to visit Granny and the Hammond side of the family @ Crystal Beach. We had a great time. James still wasn't sure about the ocean, but he liked building sand castles with his Aunt and cousin Madeline. He also experienced the slip-n-slide for the first time.

For those of you who have been praying for Granny, she is doing great. I am so proud of all of her hard work and effort. She is a strong woman and anxious to be feeling like her old self again. James and I loved getting to see her!

Big News

As many of you know, we went to Florida about a month ago to meet with a church. We had a great time and really connected with the committee that we met. The position is for Pastor of Providence Village Baptist Church.
They called on Wednesday to let us know that Beau has been called as Senior Pastor. We will be going in view of a call on July 26th. We are excited to see the people again and to meet more of the congregation. Please be praying for us that we will follow the Lord's will in every area of our lives.

James' Announcement

James wants everyone to know that he his going to have a baby BROTHER. We are so excited to see him show this new little one the ropes. He can't wait to teach this little one how to throw a ball. We know he will be fantastic.
