Present from Grammy and Grandaddy

Heifer Ranch (Backtracking Again)

A few pictures from Chase's youth group trip.  He was gone on his 13th birthday.  The youth minister was nice enough to let him call me on his birthday.

They had a cake for him.

Backtracking a Little - VBS

Here are a few pictures from VBS that I took from the church VBS blog.

Cade wanted to wear his sandals because that is what they wore in ancient times.

Nate's Birthday Dinner

Nate's party was scheduled for later in the week, but we wanted to celebrate his birthday on his actual birthday.  We went to one of our favorite places, Jason's Deli.  Chase was there too, but he didn't get in any pictures for some reason.

Nate was way excited!

Nate had been begging for the Joker House, so he was thrilled with his present.

I didn't want to get a whole cake, so we improvised with a piece of cake with candles.  Jason's Deli doesn't have the best cake selection, but Nate wanted ice cream anyway.

I love how Cade is making the blowing motion also.

Happy birthday sweet, precious Nate.  I can't believe you are 5.

Nate's Birthday Fun Continues - Museum

After donuts, we headed to the children's museum.  They had a great time.

We watched the Shark movie.  The boys were not impressed.

Nate loved the babies.  I have a video of him working so hard to change a diaper.  It was precious.

Serious Dr. look

I was enjoying this light.  I might have been leaning over on a stool trying to get the right picture, and I might just have fallen hard on my bottom.  So very graceful.

Birthday phone call

I can't believe my baby is 5!
