Celebrating Sophie!

I cannot believe that Sophie is now 5 years old. I know that we all say this, but it really does seem like she was born yesterday.

Blessed!!!

Family, Food, Warmth, Shelter, Love, New life, First smiles, Peace, Joy! I am so thankful for this past year and for this coming year. I pray that this year will be full of hope and strength for all of you. Thankyou for reading our blog!

Happy New Year!

Jam time with Daddy!

Ethan's 6th birthday party

Ethan turned 6 on september 17. He LOVES dinosaurs, so we had a dinosaur theme. Auntie Laura made the wonderful cake, which Ethan was thrilled about!

Ethan wanted a dinosaur theme for his party, so we had a fossil dig in the back yard. It was alot of fun. The fossils were made out of coffee grounds, salt, flour, and water.

Our Little Paleontologist!

An Ethanism

Today it was Ethan's turn for show and tell in kindergarten. He wanted to bring a picture of him as a baby and one of Granny and Grandpa. I asked him how it went. He said "Mom, I felt really good about myself today, and I was really loving God"!

Ethan's first day of kindergarten! (sniff sniff)

Dress Up Brides

Ethan, Sophie, and Levi LOVE to dress up! The big problem with this though, is that it is always at the same time. I caught the three of them sharing one bridle outfit, very graciously I might add. Levi only wanted the shoes.
