Preparing For and The Arrival of HUDSON ROBERT TUNNEY!!

Back in February 2008 at work a pharmacy student who was there doing her clinicals asked me a questions about my shoes. I thank God daily for my Dansko Shoes!!! What a small world it was, that day we learned she and her husband were from around Jackson (really close to my home town), we knew many of the same people, decided to exchanged numbers so maybe we could become "work out" buddies at the gym, and one of the most important things I learned even in our first conversation was how important her church was to her and the desire she had to be in God's will. There was something about that conversation that I thought God might have answered a prayer. I have met some amazing people since we have lived here, it just hasn't seemed to be someone who we have clicked immediately, been in the same phase of life and around the same age, our husbands have things in common, both were in the medical field, and our desire to know God more always increases when you have someone with the same desire. I had been praying for most of these things over those past 2 years. Well one year later I consider this precious girl to be one of my closest and dearest friends, Lauren Tunney. Well so much for the workout partner 2 months from our meeting she finds out her and Jeff are expecting their first child, but that didn't stop us from creating a relationship and being there for one another. Over the last 10months we bought a house in there neighborhood and have shared many hours talking, walking, eating, crying, laughing, praying for the trials we have stumbled upon etc. As we all got anxious for the arrival of this precious baby boy the Lord had created, some girls in the neighborhood gave a baby shower. Thought I would share some picture below.
