Happy Thanksgiving!

I just wanted to wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving. Our Thanksgiving was great! We were able to spend the day with my family, eating wonderful food, and playing games. It was fun. Today we were able to have Dave's parents come and enjoy food and football! It doesn't get much better then that! It was the kind of game that put you on the edge of your seat, but we won in the end! Go Huskers!

When you spend time with the ones you love, you really get a feeling of true joy. To know that we are all so loved puts you in a really great place. To think that the greatest love is the love we have from God just blows my mind. Family for me is a great reminder that no matter how much we love our families, God is loving us even more! Seems impossible, I know!

I pray that this finds your family happy and healthy. I pray that you all have a great Thanksgiving!

Half Way There!

Well, I've made it to the 20 week mark! Praise God! This past weekend was a little interesting. I had been having mild contractions for the last 2 weeks that started to hit hard on Thursday. Friday I called the doctor and was told to sit on my rear with my feet up and drink plenty of water - the WHOLE weekend. Now, for those of you who know me, this was probably the hardest thing I've had to do in a long time. I'm in the middle of painting the kids' bedrooms, putting new furniture together and nesting like I've never nested before. So, thankfully Phil and Roma got the game on Saturday. (The game that I was supposed to be attending! It was too cold, but it still would have been fun! Dave still went - crazy!) The kids and I went over to their place for that and I did just as I was told - sat. It stinks! But I'm thankful, because the game was a nice distraction. It took until Sunday late afternoon before the contractions slowed down. Hopefully this was just a mild bump in the road in this pregnancy. It seems to have gotten a little better, so please continue to pray that they go away until delivery! Also pray that I learn to slow down. Easier said then done!

Halloween 2008

Fun at the Berean Fall Festival

Hunter, Abby & our cutie

Hunter, Abby & cutie Avery

My spiderman & Woodland Fairy

Halloween this year was alot of fun. Dave and I had decided rather then walking the neighborhood we would venture out to the Fall Festival at Berean. It was a blast! We were able to go with Dave, Courtney and their cutie - Avery. The kids had a great time and got plenty of candy to last the rest of the year. Our neighbor, Delaney was so awed by Hunter's costume, because with his mask on you couldn't tell that it was him, that I'm surprised I got a picture of her without her pointing and laughing at Hunter. It was really cute. If you ever need an idea for Halloween that is fun and safe - check out Berean's festival.

The Epp Family

Hello! I decided that since our family is growing that it would be only fair to change this to the Epp Family blog instead of Abby & Hunter adventures. I will still be posting all the adventures that those two bring us on, but so much more!

There is so much to be thankful for! We are expecting our 4th miracle at the end of March. We were told a few weeks ago that this little one is a boy! Hunter was thrilled and couldn't be settled down all day, but Abby on the other hand was a little bummed. She was hoping for another sister, one that she could grow old with, but God has bigger plans. Now she will enjoy the thrill of having two brothers that will antagonize her boyfriends and sneak up on her and her friends during sleepovers. Oh, the memories will be great! She has warmed up to the idea after having her things moved to the other room and completely made over. New wall colors, bedding and even a new bed that includes a trundle for those many sleepovers. It's not so bad being the only girl! It turned out really cute. A room that a girl can love!

Please keep our family in your prayers as God continues to have his hand on this new baby. We have faith that God is good and his plan is perfect, but there are those days when the devil tries so hard to bring that feeling of doubt and worry into our life. Your prayers are greatly appreciated!

Thanks for visiting!

With love,
