The kids were outside playing yesterday when it started to rain a little, I looked out the door to check on them and Nichole proudly had a plant over her head to take the place of an umbrella! What else do you do when you can't find one?!?

One of the very few bonuses to being a mommy, it is the little things that brighten the day! I got a good laugh out of her imagenation! I think she gets her imagenation from her dad!  

 The boys were getting ready for school when they saw the sunrise, they loved it and took this picture! Courtney of course was a big fan of the pink/purple colors!  

 Excuse the puppy dog ears! :o)

I was in the kitchen baking when I heard the Veggie Tales cd start to play, I looked in the front room to find Courtney and Nichole standing as of they were in church and singing their little hearts out! 

How about a few more babies....

I woke up to find this, and there were a few more babies hidden in there too! Think they had enough? On another note, I love watching my kids sleep, there is something about it that makes them extra cute!

~Boots~

 This is our cat, Boots, he has grown alot in the first year. As you can tell, he is Nichole's buddy, and I think much to his dismay at times! :o)

I really have nothing important to say, besides the fact that even when we don't understand the circumstances that life brings and the confusion on top of that, that we have a God that has a plan and has it all under control. If we trust and follow Him! Like I heard Sis Becky Schenck say in Chapel today..."Lord, I wanna sit in your wheel barrel, I know that you'll steer it good!"

I don't have any up to date pictures but came across this one from a year ago~ I love my ornery kiddo's! I can't imagine life without them! 

~Dress up~

The girls played dress up New Year's Eve, they had fun! And were quite a sight!

Hold me while I cry lyrics and images

Daddy + 3 kids = Hunting

Daddy and his girls

 Such a good daddy, he took 3 kids hunting with him and I think he was wondering when he left how crazy he was?!! Apparently they were his good luck. He got his first doe this year! I was kinda thinking that maybe he needs to take 3 kids, or 4 all the time?!! :o) 

 Devon

 Courtney

 Nichole's 2nd time to go hunting, she went last night and must've thought it was ok, because she wanted to go again!!

 Poor Nichole, was so tired, ( I am guessing since it was so boring) she couldn't stay awake for nothing!

Courtney said she made a little house for the ants, I am assuming while they were sitting behind hay bales waiting for deer! :o)
