Chocolate Temptation

Learning self-control is no fun!

Fun Danny tidbit: the child does not like chocolate chip cookies!  And if you him give a cake, brownie, or donut with frosting, he’ll eat the frosting and leave the rest untouched! 

On the Job

I’m so happy that the boys are big enough that they are actually disposing of rodents for me!  Yet another perk of having kids – delegating the chores I don’t want to do!!

Just the Right Note

I was so happy I got to attend the girls’ recorder concerts at school.  They each did an awesome job!

Kindergarten Party

Last week, I got to attend Jimmy’s end-of-the-year Kindergarten party.  It was surreal to think that this awesome year was already coming to a close.  I’m so thankful that his wonderful teacher fostered Jimmy’s excitement for learning.  Look out, First Grade, Jimmy’s coming for ya!

Wedding Day

We were delighted to celebrate the wedding of our friends Beth and Matt a few weeks ago.  The day was picture-perfect from beginning to end.  We’re so excited for this young couple and all the Lord has in store for them!  photo 20170527_211351390_iOS.jpg  photo 20170527_195040663_iOS.jpg photo 20170527_233533465_iOS.jpg  photo 20170527_233737419_iOS.jpg  photo 20170528_000007859_iOS.jpg photo bb6c48ca-248c-4d76-8e80-604cf2ea4583.jpg   photo 20170528_000547799_iOS.jpg  photo 20170528_000601109_iOS.jpg  photo 20170528_000656138_iOS.jpg

History Lesson

As I’ve mentioned before, Jimmy is a HUGE history buff.  So he was over the moon when I offered to take him to our town’s historical society to see their new WWI display. He had me read him almost every sign and caption in the entire exhibit.  He especially loved learning about the trench warfare and seeing a mirror that they put on the end of a bayonet so they could view the enemy lines.  He was too cute! 

I’m just so tickled by his love of military history!  He’s a man after my own heart.
