We went to watch fireworks last night. It was a big show, lots of beautiful fireworks. The kids enjoyed some funnel cake. Well, who am I kidding, I enjoyed some funnel cake. And then I let the kids have what I couldn’t eat. Isabelle had a great time getting all sugared up and running around, but when the fireworks started… Read More
Fun (or not so fun) in the sun
We set the sprinkler up in the yard the other day thinking it would be a sure fire hit with the girls. Well, it wasn’t. At first. The boys loved it from the get go and the girls warmed up to it after a while. Even while they were unimpressed with the sprinkler, they sure looked cute in their swimsuits…. Read More
The end of an era
Terri and I have been meeting at McDonald’s weekly for Bible study for four years. With this move, our meetings will have to come to an end.

Bubbles make it all better
We spent the majority of our long weekend at home, working on the upstairs bathroom. Well, actually it was me on ‘kid duty’ and Chris upstairs, working away. I must admit, I was a bit jealous as the days wore on and the kids got punchy. The reason my better half has to do the work himself is that we… Read More
