Davy and I hosted Thanksgiving in our home for the first time since I could not travel with my due date being just over a week away. We had Tim and Ashley, Davy's brother and sister join us which was so much fun. Everyone pitched in to help make our Thanksgiving dinner a success. I was little worried since none of us had ever cooked a turkey or sides from scratch. We did have a box of stove top and stouffers mac n' cheese just in case my new recipes did not come out well. Miraculously everything came out great and it was fun to learn how to cook it all.

Well after nine months and only three and a half more weeks before our little boy arrives he officially has a name. We are so excited to announce that his name will be Graham David Stephenson. I (Kelly) fell in love with the name Graham early on in our pregnancy but did not think that Davy liked the name as much as I did. We discussed many other names but they would only stick for a few days.

Davy and I were walking through Hobby Lobby yesterday and he surprised me by saying that he had a name that he would like to name our son. I was thrilled he had a name but a little nervous to know what it was. He took me to the wooden letter aisle and began pulling the letters that spelled Graham. I was shocked but so ecstatic that he also loved the name.

Here are a few pictures of our updated nursery that is now almost complete. All we need now is Graham!





After we had finished painting the letters for Graham's name, Davy decided he wanted to cut out a train with the extra plywood. I was amazed at how he sketched out a train from scratch (did not copy it) and then used his jigsaw tool to cut out the train. I stood in amazement at his carpentry abilities.

Last weekend we took a last minute trip to Atlanta for a little get away before I am grounded from travel. We enjoyed visiting and staying with Davy’s brother, Jason. We were also able to visit with Ashley for dinner one night. It was a short visit but packed with fun events that included hiking Stone Mountain, golf (Davy played with his brother and friends), and shopping (for me). Here are a few pictures from our trip.

Last Sunday morning was the first worship service for Grace Presbyterian in our new church building. Here are few pictures of the inside being built out and also Davy building the stage for the church…
