Jeremy Camp: Overcome
Seated above, enthroned in the Father's love
Destined to die, poured out for all mankind
God's only Son, perfect and spotless one
He never sinned but suffered as if He did

All authority
Every victory is Yours
All authority
Every victory is Yours

Savior, worthy of honor and glory
Worthy of all our praise, You overcame
Jesus, awesome in power forever
Awesome and great is Your name, You overcame

Power in hand speaking the Father's plan
You're sending us out, light in this broken land

We will overcome by the blood of the Lamb
And the word of our testimony, everyone overcome

The Hostesses of the shower! 

My mom and I

This weekend was so wonderful!  On Friday I prepared the house for my out of town guests.  I was then surprised by my aunt and cousin who had driven down for the weekend.  Mikey and I went over to my parent's house for dinner with them.  On Saturday morning my friend Christie and her daughter Sophia flew in from Phoenix, Arizona for the shower.  We got ready at my apartment and then headed over.  The was amazing! Great food and great friends! I loved having most of all my friends there- from Bible Study, to church, to family, and friends from Westmont! (I will be posting more pictures soon)  Rachel came from Fresno and Kacie and Vanessa came from Santa Barbara! After the shower we brought all my gifts home and relaxed before dinner.  Then we headed out to Red Robin and saw the movie "What to Expect When Your Expecting," very fitting for the occasion.  On Sunday after everyone left, I was able to organize everything I got.  Now I just can't wait for the baby to come!

Congratulations Sarah!

 Almost the whole family (Hi Matthew!)

The Ladies

Not only did Sarah graduation but she graduated at the top of her class!! A 4.0!!! She defiantly takes after her older and wiser sister.....hahaha.  She has her masters and I do not! I guess I have some catching up to do.  

3 years down....one to go!

Its hard to believe that a year from this May, Mikey will be a doctor!  Even though my posts have recently been about our baby, there is a lot of other things going on as well!  Mikey is finishing his third year of medical school.  This summer he will apply for residences to be an Emergency Room doctor.  Most days we are both waking up before 6:00 and getting home exhausted from work.  The Browns keep busy! (I am patiently waiting for him to set the crib up.....if you read this Mikey you are welcome to do it anytime now)

Sister Sarah is graduating this weekend with her Masters in Social Work!!! We can't wait to watch her graduate again.

Baby Boy is Growing!

My dear sister insisted that I take regular pregnancy pictures.  I can now feel my baby moving, which is good because he really is real!  I have been working on sewing curtains and will soon start on his quilt.  My goal is to have everything done early.....just in case!  I am also planning my maternity leave from school, I am just a tad bit excited to do that as well.  We do have a name but it will be a secret until we hold him!

Nothing like a beautiful Santa Barbara day.....

A Shower for Layne
