Jeremey and his son

Jeremey loves all of his children. Would do anything for them. And he really loves being a daddy to 3 of the cutest girls you will ever lay your eyes on. BUT...he is very excited to be a daddy to the cutest boy you will every lay your eyes on too. Jeremey and Zachery BOTH love going to the farm. Zachery is all about tractors. Well on Monday while the big girls were at the lake with Nana and Papa, Zachery got to spend some time on the tractor. They were both thrilled. I think Jeremey has been anxiously awaiting some real father/son bonding time on the tractor. Zachery even got to go potty of the steps. He thought that was pretty cool.

Zachery buckled up. Jeremey was looking at getting another tractor this year. Want to know what the MUST HAVE was: a buddy seat for the kids!
I performed farm wife duties by moving tractors, hooking up plows, bringing food etc...well Jeremey was in road gear following us and I asked Zachery if he was going fast or slow. He smiled and said "Daddy's going bunny." There's a bunny picture on the throttle for fast, and there is a turtle for slow. Now that is one pretty smart 2 year old!

Let's play catch up

I promise I am still here....just been a bit busy doing nothing I think...I don't even remember! The kids are all healthy and growing well. Abbey likes 2nd grade, even if there aren't as many crafts. She has a really good teacher which I am very grateful for.

Emalie is following in her siblings footsteps, she loves apples too!

Papa is swinging Natalie. This is one of the kids' favorite thing to do with Papa.

Papa and Emalie chillin'

Emalie learning just how good cherry limeades are-she didn't want to put down the cup. See the green cup of milk? She didn't want anything to do with the milk!

Baby Cole came to visit us this month. I just love his cheeks!

And he brought big sister Joslyn and big brother Blay.

Zachery was so tired he fell asleep watching a movie.

Sue's school craft was donuts for D...the best part was the sprinkles!

More sprinkles!

I LOVE IT!!

Yes I am SHOUTING SINGING and DANCING! Did you happen to see the new header? IT WAS MADE WITH CREATIVE MEMORIES STORYBOOK PLUS!! Oh my gosh!!! I just love it. I have a new addiction! DIGITAL SCRAPBOOKING! Stefani gave me some pointers a couple of months ago, and then I started playing with my Storybook and wouldn't you know? A brand new header!!!!
Happy Sunday Night!

How have you helped today?

Have you seen the insurance commericial that shows a stranger helping another, then someone else sees it, and they go on to help someone else? It's a great commercial. Keep your eye out for it.
I have been given the chance to help 2 strangers in the last 5 days. I found a cell phone in the bathroom of the mall and recalled the last number dialed and the lady that answered help me find the owner of the phone. Then yesterday an older lady was having trouble getting her credit card to work to pump gas so I helped her get it started. IT FELT GREAT! I hope these to ladies will go on to help someone when needed.
So my question for you today is: How have you helped someone today? It just takes a few minutes out of your day but it is so fullfilling. Doing something for nothing in return. TRY IT!
Have a great day!

Pictures my kids take and my 100th post

These are the pictures you get when the kids get the camera. It is really cool to just see what is important to them in their world, and to see it at their level. Taken by Natalie

I see that this is my 100th blog post. I never would have thought. I am enjoying this so much! I still hope you are too. On Sunday Jeremey and I hit a weird milestone. (I have been waiting for 8/17 for a very long time) It is the day that we have been together longer than we have been apart! I know its weird! But that is just one of the MANY odd thoughts in my head!

Thanks

Uncle Dick called us Thursday evening to let us in on God's beauty. Thank you Uncle Dick for letting us know. We would have missed it without you!

When I gather the clouds over the earth and the bow appears in the clouds, I shall recall the covenant between myself and you and every living creature, in a word all living things, and never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all living things. ~Genesis 9:14-15
