Apple Pickin'

We had a blast at the apple orchard! We go every year around this time to pick apples off the tree. This year Princess received a special surprise. She got ride on a horse and carriage and she got to hold the reigns! She was just beside herself. Those of you who know her can see how this would just make her just ecstatic! It was hot outside but it was the tradition that we loved the most. Dh does so well with the kids. He is so patient and loving. I really appreciate him being a wonderful dad! Buzz and Ariel just enjoyed the day as they enjoy everything outside.

Kid say the oddest things....

My kiddos were in the car going to school the other morning and started having various conversion with each other. Princess likes to carry around her bible now a days. She told her brother that the bible was good and that it says in John 4:16 that "God so loved the world that he sent his son". I was stunned. She was not totally correct but she was very close. Wow! I thought to myself to have a daughter who has Jesus on her mind first thing in the morning. You never know what will come out of their mouths!

Can it be?

Here is our friend Ryan who dressed for his sons 4th birthday party. It was the best party I have ever been to. Can you see the similarity? Wow! Maybe he has another brother out there.

A Shout Out to the SAHM's

Today was a crazy day. My kiddos were off the hook today! I don't know if it was Unca Dave or what but when we got home from a friends house we could not even say our prayers because they were so wound up! One was crying, one was talking non-stop, and the other decided that we was just going to bed no matter what. Dh was out of town so they are usually out of sorts when he is gone. Whew. This is what I want and I will have one for all the moms out there who are wondering why they do this day after day. We love our families but sometimes.....

First Day of Preschool

Princess started preschool. She was so happy and excited! She walked right in and did not even shed a tear. It was a bittersweet moment. It is weird being home with no noise at all. I am enjoying it but I love to pick her up from school.
