It's about time!

Finally, another post. Here's the kids dancing with Forrest a few weeks ago.

Happy Birthday Noelle!

In five short years...

















my sweet girl is growing up! Noelle had her friends over yesterday to celebrate her birthday, and had a lot of fun and enjoyed her princess castle cake. Happy birthday Noelle!

Happy Birthday to David!

Seven years ago today David was born. Today we had a family movie time with pizza and pop in our newly-arranged TV area downstairs. It was fun! David's birthday plan. Soon we'll have a chocolate dragon-decorated cake and some ice cream. Happy birthday David!

Anastasia's surgery is to be rescheduled; the anesthesiologist listened to her lungs and wants to hold off. I'm glad I got a frank answer to this, since we had been unsure the whole time whether she was enough over her cold to undergo anesthesia. Thanks for your prayers!

Please be praying...

for this beautiful little girl as she has surgery on her eyes tomorrow!
It is a minor, outpatient procedure to adjust the muscles of her eyes so that they can track together; please pray also that she and the other children will get over the nasty colds they have had for the past two weeks.

Cute girls and snow pictures

Noelle asked me to put this ribbon in her hair...then she wanted a picture. :-) I love this first smile, it's one she does sometimes when trying to look cute.



































Here's some snow from the other week. This was BEFORE the blizzard...


























Here's AFTER the blizzard. If you compare, you can see the significant difference.












































































































Girlies sleeping. So sweet!

Happy Birthday Timothy!

Believe it or not he's 8 years old today!
