Twigs & Leaves: The Crib

So now that the cat is out of the bag I can share some of the new things we are experiencing while we wait on the arrival of Baby Boy.
I have been preparing a place for Baby here at our place, nesting if you will. Scott says I am gathering twigs and leaves (He's so cute)....and I just realized that the Tale of 2 Taylors will soon be 3!!!

It has become our little inside joke-> Anytime I'm fidgeting with home/baby stuff we just say, "twigs & leaves" - enuff said- we both understand and respect the insanity!

Sunday night we had some downtime and we decided that we would put the crib together, enjoy!!!

So excited!!

Friday was so fun with XYC

First Friday is our youth led Life Group we hold it on the First Friday of the month and since this is just the second meeting since we starting holding them again we held it at our place, we had an awesome turn out. We had 14 youth show up on a Friday night!!!
We are in a great season with XYC right now- the best we have ever had. We have a great group of supportive parents, respectful youth and teenagers who have a desire to learn about God but also as important, they are friendly to each other. They all talk and respect each other and you can see God moving in their lives.
We are really enjoying XYC right now...Scott and I are having the best time.
At First friday one of the youth shared her testimony and how God changed her life and all that she had gone through while she was away from God and it was sooooo powerful. That then started a discussion and youth from the youngest to the oldest got involved in the conversation.

I love moments like this when we see fruit in the lives of these youth and we see them spur each other on live for God.... I am just so honored that the Lord would call Scott and I to these amazing youth! I am excited to see all that this generation is going to do for God....
(Yay, and an old girl like me gets to be a part of it too :)

Have a wonderfully blessed day!
