Little Angels





How did we get so lucky to have three angels sent to us? We are so enjoying having Emma Jean with us. She has brought such a sweet and tender atmosphere to our rather rambunctious crew! The boys play this game where they run up to her and kiss her (as I am gaurding her head so they don't over estimate their stopping point)and then run away and then do it again and again. They get the biggest kick out of running as fast as they can towards her, but as soon as they stop to give her a kiss they pucker up and lay a soft and sweet kiss on her face. It is too cute! (Emma Jean in her 1st dress on her way to church at 7 weeks).

Noah started playing soccer for a little league team called the "Eagles" this year. He hasn't made any goals, but he does great pushing everyone out of the way!

Josh started building a cement patio out back. He dug out the area and then due to the torrential rain we have been having, it has turned into a big lake. Of course all of the threats we waged against the boys couldn't stop them from going out there and playing it. They some how managed to throw every toy in the back yard in the mud without us knowing. It was real fun digging out cars and balls and all kinds of toys once the lake drained.

For Mother's Day 2010, I made headbands for each mother in our family. It was so fun to do and I enjoyed using my creative side that hasn't been used in a while.

LOVE the look Eli-no pants and boots. You can only get away with it while you're young, so take advantage kid...it's freedom.
