When in situations of stress we wonder if there is anymore to give. We can be comforted to know that God, who knows our capacity perfectly, placed us here to succeed. No one was foreordained to fail. Let us remember that we were measured before and were found equal to our tasks. When we feel overwhelmed, let us recall the assurance that God will not over-program us; he will not press upon us more than we can bear.

Relay for Life and Family Reunion

We had a great weekend last weekend. We started it off being part of a relay for life team with Todd's cousins. They are amazing and we love their family! This is Kiana and Nish, two beautiful sisters! They are a very strong family who have shown me how to be so strong! I hope one day I'm half as strong as they are!
Todd doing his laps! We were there for about three hours friday night and we each walked about 4.5 miles! By the end of the night, the team walked WAY over 300 miles! Isn't that CRAZY?!
Saturday morning we drove to Wayne County for the Fordham Family reunion. It was such a fun and relaxing day for us! This was the very intense game of volleyball that was going on! hehe
Lily with some of her favorite cousins! They love her too!
Lily spent most of the day in the swing... and all of her cousins kept pushing her so she was in heaven! It really was a lot of fun!
Lily with her grandma! She just loves her grandma, and I'm pretty sure that her grandma loves her back! They are really good friends! It's fun to watch them together! :) Overall, it was a lot of fun! I wish we had weekends like this every weekend!
