Beautiful Mothers day flowers from our church!

More Mothers day flowers!

Complete with Lilacs which have always been my Mommy's favorite flowers

Chloe and Colton were super excited about the gifts they got me for Mothers day. I couldn't figure out what they might have found that had them both in such a dither...


...but it made sense as soon as i opened it...

...They gave me two shirts... A batman one, and a superman one.
In celebration of Mothers day, we did something we've never done before...

...we took a family trip to Coldstones! Chloe was stoked!

Ummm... it's pretty much the best ice cream in the WORLD!! There's the superman shirt :D

My most precious blessings!

Chloe took this pic

then she wanted a whole family pic, so we set up the camera :)



Brian was reading to chloe one day. I peeked around the corner snapped the pic and right at the perfect time she whirled her head around and stuck her tongue out. The little squirt!

He's starting to not fit on her lap!

One Saturday Brian went to the ordination of our assistent Pastor and the kids and i stayed home. We decided to build a tent...

It turned out pretty amazing! It had 6 rooms!



So we got a flashlight and read stories.

Drew even got in on the fun!

I love this silly girl!

On Memorial day we took our family to the war memorial at a beautiful cemetary in town. It was a sobering way to focus on the sacrifiice that so many paid to serve our country. And even a wonderful reminder of the ultimate sacrifice that our LORD paid as he hung perfect on the cross taking the punishment for our sins. Ican't help but hope that many of these knew Him.








Tree hugging... get it!?
We have baby birds!!

They grow so stinkin' fast!


Me... attempting to put one back that i accidently scared out of the nest... I don't think that's a good place for a nest.


This is a new sign i got to hang in my kitchen. It's kinda long so hopefully you can get the idea from the three pics below. I love the reminders that are always before me! It's Eucharisteo! A beautiful blend of Grace, Thanks and Joy!!
