Here are Caroline's mother, Charlsa, Caroline, and her sister, Annie, who studies opera in the John Hopkins graduate school in Baltimore (and who also makes a wonderful cake)...
The house - where the shower was - is so unique, and gorgeous. Caroline's brother, Chason, and his wife Cassie basically built this house themselves. I mean, they designed it... and have done most of the interior work themselves. You have to see it to believe it...
This next picture shows you the look out back (love the big window - looking out on the tall trees).... and, of course, this picture shows some of the shower attendees. Lots of precious little girls... all ages!...
I show this next picture to let you see the beautiful ceiling...
Well, it looks as if I was more interested in the house than the shower honoree.
No, no .....
Here we are...

Well, that shower was yesterday....
Here's what happened early-early this morning... the skiers left for Colorado!!
------
After they left, I went back to sleep... and then woke up at 10:30 to go to the second service at church...
At the end of that worship service, the group that is leaving for India Tuesday came to the front and shared a little bit about what they are doing...
Here John Gregory is saying a prayer for them...
And here's who I'm particularly praying for on the trip, wonderful Amanda...
After church, we had a meeting at our house of the music, drama, and tech team from church. We were meeting with our new worship leader, Roger Burk (WONDERFUL FELLA)...
Here's Roger with his wife Michelle, and my Sam . . .
Here Roger is sharing his thoughts with the group. (Exciting thoughts, by the way.)

Finally, ... on a sad note, this beautiful family (John, Elizabeth, Caroline and Andrew) was expecting another little one this summer... but this week they lost the baby.
There is definitely wonderfully comforting sweetness in that thought.

Thank you - it IS comforting. :)
Wonderful post - lots of wonderful things going on. That house is amazing! It looks like its in Colorado, not suburbia Texas!
I thought the same thing about that house!! Gorgeous and very unique!
As for roger, he IS awesome!! I am so glad God brought him to us!
Wow, so much going on... what kind of cake was the baby shower cake? It looks SO tasty!!
The house is beautiful - and I agree with Eliz, it looks like it should be in the mountains somewhere! How beautiful!
How long will the Indian team be gone? Will definitely pray for their well-being - especially Amanda!
You stay so busy - I think it's wonderful!
