Baby Isaac Stops In for a Visit....(and I added a video from the visit :)

Yes, we were ALL so excited about the YOUNG FAMILY passing through town for a wedding this weekend.....So, they stopped in Saturday night AFTER the wedding so we could visit for a bit.....My 5 little favorite people were anxiously waiting outside for them to arrive: Well..I thought it would be great to snap a few pics before they arrived...and well..I could show ya the pics where no one would cooperate and LL kept running away and Hal kept fussing:

BUT...WHY DO THAT?? I think I'll stick to the cute pics where we look like we really have it all together, LOL :


LL was very excited...and kept yelling "Yayyy Baby Isaac is coming!! " (yes, she's talking LOTS these days):
She truly NEVER quits talking from the time her eyes open in the morning until I place her in her bed at night...She is a little parrot copying ANYTHING we say:

Oh, they arrived and my kiddos run down to the driveway...LL gets left behind so Daddy helps her down to see Baby Isaac:
(and I must mention that I was gone all afternoon taking kids to bday parties..and Daddy was home cleaning up for the Youngs to come by...so I left him the ingredients out and recipes written out for him and HE made all our food for the evening...Thanks Hubby :)
***And, we of course headed right in and started snappin pics of LL and Isaac:


They were too funny together....For anyone new around here: Isaac and Lucy lane came from the same orphanage in Ethiopia called Hannah's Hope!! :)


And, of course, LL HAD to perform for Baby Isaac ALL NIGHT....With LL around, there is NEVER a dull moment:


My sweet 5 yr. old Hal LOVES babies and LOVED getting Isaac to crawl around:


And, of course, we attempted some "MOMMY" pics....and well...LL was SUCH A NUT that Isaac couldn't quit looking at her....He's thinkin: "Wow, this gal with the big green flower is a complete CRAZY HAM!!"


Oh, well...we could never get a good one with my camera...but I think Andrea got better ones..so I'll steal some of hers when she posts:


And, here is "Mr. Babe of my Heart"!!! :) Do ya like that title, Richard? LOL He told me he reads my blog daily for my music at work!! Don't worry Richard, a lot a folks just stop by for the music selection!! :)

And, since most of ya know that Andrea is PART of an amazing nonprofit called: www.wiphan.org and SINCE I posted their cookbook in my last post...and SINCE someone asked me to tell them a few GREAT recipes from the cookbook so they could know if they wanted to buy one or not....Well...here was our dessert tonight...straight from the Wiphan Cookbook:

It's called "Holy Cow Cake" And, it was just that!!!!! AMAZING!!! It will put a hurtin on ya it is SOOO good!!! Sorry, it was much prettier before we ate half of it, but I forgot to take a pic of it before!! :) But the cookbook at www.wiphan.org is amazing and it has TONS of amazing recipes!!! My all time favorite app from the book is Black-eyed Pea Spinach Dip!!! Oh, my...it might have been the GREATEST thing I've eaten lately!!! :)
***So, the YOUNGS stayed late...our kids were all up SUPER late...BUT it was SO worth it and SUPER fun!!! :) They are an amazing family and that baby Isaac is a little crawling miracle!! So blessed to know them all!! :) And, can't wait to see you guys again soon!! :)
Happy Sunday to you all, kj
