Disney!!!!

We just came back from Disney. This is the first time we have been there as a family. I went as a kid and also when I was a teenager. Ludie went to Epcot for a Horticulture trip in college, and now we are back with kids. I think I was the biggest kid of all. It was wonderful to go to the Peter Pan ride and the Small World ride. It brought back so many memories. I was so excited I think I may have had more fun that Griffin!!!!
Griffin's favorite ride was Space Mountain. He also road Everest at Animal Kingdom. He won't admit he was scared, he just says calmly, "I'll ride that again when I turn 18". I was scarred-I'll be the first to admit it. And I loved it!!!! Ludie liked the safari at Animal Kingdom and the Buzz Lightyear ride at Disney the best. Ruth Anne slept through a lot of the rides. She did GREAT!!!! I was excited to see Sully and Mike Kryzowski and go on the laugh floor.
We all took a test to see which Disney character we were most like. Griffin was Buzz Lightyear. I was Belle and Ludie was Tarzan. OH YEAH baby! :)
We met up with Ludie's sister and family which was wonderful. We did the kid swap on rides so that we could actually ride rides as a couple.

Ruth Anne Dedication

We dedicated Ruth Anne at the beginning of May. It was such a blessing for a moment that we had prayed for the opportunity to have another child for so long. What a blessing it was for big brother to walk across with us to dedicate his little sister. She is such a long awaited blessing as both of our children are. Thank you to those who stood with us and will be a part of her life in teaching her about the love of Jesus and praying for her. For praying that she accept Christ at young age as her Lord and Savior and have a life of unabandoned passion for Jesus. Praise to God alone!

5 Love Languages

It has been a great week but a very busy one. One of the highlights of my week is meeting iwth a couple ladies from my neighborhood. We get together weekly and are going over the book 5 Love Languages of Children by Gary Chapman. It is so wonderful to learn from other mothers and is also amazing to get to know the women that live so close. I often take my neighbors for granted because we are always there. Oh, we'll get togehter when .... and when never happens. We'll after living here 6 years we are finally getting together and I am sorry that it has not been sooner. God has given me a gem in the ladies that surround me and I am so blessed. Can't wait to see ya'll this week!
BTW my love language is Quality Time. It was amazing, we took the test this week and I was very surprised to find out that my husband's is Words of Affirmation. I thought it was a different one. Well, shows how observant I am! As our friend Jason Joyce would say...just a little bit sloooowwww. :) Email me if you have taken this test and are familiar with this book and what is your love language

We're Back from the Emerald Isle

We just got back from our trip to Ireland. It was wonderful!!!! It is amazing to see how God is working mightily in Ireland!!!! God has been dealing greatly in our lives regarding Ireland. We stayed at the newly purchased location, Lacken House. Our entire family went this time.

While there, we got to meet other people from all over the world that God is calling to partner in some way with OM (Operation Mobilisation) Ireland. To see the pieces of the puzzle come together is much what I imagine what it will be like in heaven when we get to see the "bigger picture". We would love to talk to you about all this in person as there is not enough time or space to record all that God is doing.

Some highlights of the trip: (Ludie probably has a much different highlight list, as we had a lot of different experiences based on our schedules).My favorite part of the trip was having breakfast with an older gentleman named Bill. He was born and raised in Ireland and I got to just listen to his story everymorning and learn about his Irish heritage and how he came to know the Lord. While there I also met two other homeschool moms that were American and had children around Griffin's age (only God could do that!). We toured a nearby city that is growing tremendously and offers great potential for work and God is really opening doors here. We met with several pastors of different churches that are working together to share the love that comes from Christ alone. Ludie met with political figures that God is working in their lives as an answer to prayers. Having a family day in town together (Ludie did a great job driving on the left side of the road-we make a good team in navigation as there are no road names-at least not posted, and lots of sheep pastures!). Last but not least, taking the kids to a playground and low and behold there is a castle from the 1400's behind it!

God answered our prayers in so many ways and beyond. He has given a vision for involvement in Ireland. If you are interested in more details about our trip we would love to talk to you. Just contact us.

With much love and Praise to our Father God in Heaven,

Happy New Year!

Welcome to Creech Corner! There is so much going on in our lives that we wanted a place to share all the wonderful and exciting ways in which God is blessing us with our dearest friends and family. I cannot believe that it is already February! It seems that it was just a week ago that I was walking the neighborhood with my best girlfriend Jenny trying to get the baby to come soon and now our beautiful baby girl is 7 weeks old as of tomorrow!



I guess to recap this past year (2007) would be to let you know what Ludie and I started the year praying. We prayed that God would use our lives in anyway fit. Our other prayer together was that we would stop seeing God in the review mirror and the He would open our eyes and heart to what is going on now. Wow has he answered those prayers in such amazing and exciting ways!



It is always amazing to me that when I pray I have no idea what I am really asking. It is true that we have no idea what God has in store for us. If I did, I would not originally had prayed the prayer but in the end the blessings are wonderful and beyond my comprehension and imagination!



As an answer to prayer, God has given us a beautiful baby girl that is adored by her big brother
More info in upcoming posts. I have to run right now.
