Wild Wednesdays!

Sneak Peek - David

I took David's 3-year photos last night. He did such a great job. Becky had him dressed up in his train gear. I even managed to get quite a few shots off before he would come running to see his picture on the back of the camera. Great Job David!

What I did today!

I'm putting myself out on a limb showing you this. You will either feel really good about yourself because you're house doesn't look like this, or you will feel good about yourself because you've been right where I was this morning and now you know you're not the only one. Either way...you win! Really, who are we kidding, I know you've all been here. Just admit it and we'll move forward together. However, please ignore Aaron's room in this video. There's not much of a difference, but at least the bed got made. So here it is for your viewing enjoyment!

Roller Skating

Tonight we had a Sunday school class fellowship and took the kids roller skating. It was the 1st time skating for both of the kids, and I'm sure it had been at least 15 years since I had been roller skating. We had a lot of fun. I fell once but didn't injure myself. And Rachel threw the mother of all fits when it was time to leave. Oh well, you can't always have it all. :)

Whoo Hoo!!!

If you heard a giant sigh of relief followed by cheering today around 12:15 PM...that was me. Dusty took the 1st of 3 tests for a Microsoft certification for work. It was a monster. It was the hardest test he said he's ever had. And he has worked hard. Dusty has been studying non-stop for this thing and has probably logged a couple hundred hours preparing for it. Even with all that he was uncertain about it. So he did all that he could do to prepare and scheduled it for today. I want to say thanks to everyone who was praying today. Especially all the great gals in the Mom's group!

I've made him promise to take a little time off before he starts studying for the 2nd test so we will be celebrating this weekend!

By the way...NO, the people in the above photo are not us...YES, I wish they were. Sun...sand...warmth!

Mwajuma

We received the information packet about our sponsored child last week. This is Mwajuma, and she lives in Tanzania. Rachel loves carrying around the photo and will say "That's 'Juma!" We also received a scrapbook from Compassion that we can keep our letters and photos in. I'm looking forward to getting to know this little girl from halfway around the world.

Happy Birthday Allison!

One of my favorite little girls turned one yesterday. Happy Birthday Allison! We have quite a few sweet little girls at our church and Allison is one who is just a ray of sunshine. She surprised us by making her grand entrance into the world 2 months early, but she has been lighting up our lives ever since. She's one very special girl with a very special family. Happy Birthday little one!
