Happy Birthday Golfing


Christian wanted to go golfing for his birthday so Steve, Nick, Christian and I went. Nick tried to help Christian but he didn't really want any advice. He just wanted to tee it up and swing like crazy. We gave him some freedom here but the real lessons will be starting soon :)

Happy 6th Birthday Christian

We got Christian new golf clubs and a new yellow golf bag. He also got yellow balls because his favorite color is yellow.

Opening Nick's gift... Nick always takes time to pick out something special and package it. In this case he just knew he was giving Chistian what he REALLY wanted.
YEAH! HOT SAUCE PACKETS!!! Christian really did want these and he was super happy about them. He thanked Nick more than once for these packets of hot sauch.

It is good to support the small business owner


Christian brought me a piece of paper on Thursday and wanted me to write "Pencil Sharpening Business 1 cent". I didn't think much of it because I figured he wanted to charge us to sharpen pencils and he happily went on his way. A while later I walked by the front door and found his new business set up out front and he was patiently waiting for customers. He was lucky that our friend Cara came by to help him out. It encouraged him to head back out the next day :)

Me

My auntie Lorene asked me to post a picture of myself - I took this one last week. I am always the one taking pictures so I don't often end up in front of the camera.

THE CREATION MUSEUM - july


The Answers In Genesis Creation Museum opened in May so I was really excited to have the opportunity to visit with the kids on our through the area on our Tennessee trip to visit with Missy's parents. The Dalton's moved to TN a few years ago and we have really missed them. My kids, particularly Nicolas, have grown up calling them Grandma & Grandpa. For 7 years we spent holidays with them and many other special times. We were very excited to go see them. Our trip was incredible and we had the opportunity to do so many interesting things.


The Creation Museum was fantastic and we really enjoyed it.

TN Trip - July - World's Fair Park

View from inside the ball - I'm scared of heights and that was creepy!!!
We took the boys to play in this waterpark after the zoo. We didn't have bathing suits with us but the boys really didn't seem to care. World's Fair Park was swarming with kids playing in the fountains.

Gabey wonders, where did the water go?Christian just loving this playtime
Grandma and 3 of my 4 boys

I love this picture because they Grandma and Gabey were just having so much fun together.
