not yet... More shower pics

We had been praying and hoping, maybe more hoping than praying, there would be an induction this week. Selfish, aren't we? We're tired of Josephine being the only one to cuddle our precious Oliver. Oh well, our time will come.





Josephine saw the dr today. Oliver is continuing to grow and do well. Dialation has started as well as effacment. The dr has decided to wait until next week and have another ultrasound. From there she will decide when and if necessary to perform the induction. In the meantime we wait and pray.... and pray and wait. Trusting in God's timing isn't easy but always best in the long-term.Now.... for more about the shower.



It truly was a shower of love and it's important to me, that I share it with you!





The shower was held at a ministry center in Clovis, Matt 25 Hope Center. As a teen, Josephine and Travers were heavily involved in the restoration.



This is a picture of Jo & Richard's shower cake. Not even close to what we ordered but the guest of honor didn't mind. In a few years, he can play with the plastic animals. Maybe have them forage in an imaginary desert or gather them around an oasis in his cereal bowl.
A quiet moment between Grandma Bonnie and Richard.








A few precious friends. Left to right: Donna Pharies with Little Kathryn, Doris Cogdill, our other photographer - Donna Borden and Brenda Melton.





Below is Terry Osborne. She went with Josephine and I when we were wedding dress shopping. Her own daughter, Meghan, is due Dec. 18th. So happy for Meghan, Kevin, and the whole family!


Future Great Grandma Bonnie. :-)



Our other shower hostess, Linda Teakell. At one time, she was Josephine's children's pastor. The impact she had on Josephine's life is constantly being revealed, like a plot unfolding in a good novel.




The happy couple.


They will be much happier when Oliver can be


handed off to dad for cuddling and loving.


God's timing.


I must be patient.


We must be patient.



OOPS! Almost forgot about Justin and Cati, from LBB.


They were married earlier this year.


Maybe Cati & Justin will be next?


In a wedding, you have to catch the bouquet to be the next bride.


For a baby you have to...??


Stay tuned for updates!

Great pics. Glad to hear Meagan is having a baby. Her mom has waited a long time for that
