Fourth of July

Here's a family pic from Fourth of July!

Luke's 4th Birthday

Luke turned four on June 28th! It was a wonderful birthday. He had a "tractor" birthday party, which really consisted of construction-type themes and trucks. It was fun. He had a few friends over to celebrate with him. They decorated construction hats, dug in the "sand" (dirt) for treasures, completed an obstacle course, and enjoyed yummy cupcakes and ice cream. Mimi and Pawpaw and Grandma were able to join us and help with the party, too. It was a fantastic time!

VBS - The Big Apple

The kiddos had so much fun at VBS at our church this year. The theme was The Big Apple, and obviously I'm so thrilled that they learned more and more about Jesus, but with the theme they also learned about "sight-seeing spots" in New York, such as the Statue of Liberty (which Ruth Ann is modeling). I had an amazing time teaching 3rd graders and I'm so thankful that Luke and Ruth Ann had a blast, too!

Swimming

Summer FUN!!!

A very sweet morning...

Luke has been getting up all by himself and coming downstairs each morning. Well, one morning a few weeks ago, I woke up to our kitchen table looking like this: I had to take a picture. He said, "Mama, let's read our bibles." It was such a sweet moment for me. I had to document it. I pray each day that he and Ruth Ann come to know Jesus at an early age and serve Him all the days of their life.

Church Pics

Here's a couple of new pics before we went to church the last couple of weeks. The one with all of us is from Father's Day.

Memorial Weekend

We went to Grandma and Grandpa's House for Memorial Weekend and really enjoyed a nice, relaxing weekend. The kids had so much fun swimming in the "pool", and Luke got to ride in a kayak on the lake! You could barely see him because the life jacket was so big, and his hat is so big that he was all covered up! We all enjoyed yummy food and the great company. Thanks for a fantastic weekend.
