Life in iPhone Pictures - Venice

Straight from Nate

Nate calls it like he sees it.  I picked him up in the carpool line one day, without makeup on.  He hops in the car and does not greet me.  Instead, I get, "Did you not put makeup on today?"  Nice.


‎"Nate, you really did a great job on your report card. There is only one area where you could improve." His


 reply, "I wasn't even trying my hardest!"




My sweet Nate LOVES my tuna casserole  He ate multiple helpings and then told me that it is so good that I 


should put up a stand and sell it. I love my boy.


My sweet Nate does not like Chick-fil-A. Crazy, I know. He explained to me, "I like the chicken, just not the 


aftertaste."






SOME of us in this family have been praying for a baby girl from China. Before prayers tonight, Nate wanted 


to know why she had to come from China. I told him that she didn't and asked him where he thinks she should 


come from. He thought Mexico. I told him that Mexico isn't an easy country to adopt from, so he thought we 


should adopt from here or from...where is Mrs. Logsdon from - Oklahoma.

Straight from Nate

Nate and Cade spent a couple of nights with Grammy and Granddad.  Grammy sent me a Nate quote.


Tonight before dinner Nate raised his shirt, pinched the skin around his belly button and asked, "Grammy, can I have one of those little donuts with the white stuff on top?  I only have one percent flab on my belly."

Life in iPhone Pictures - Italy

On our first flight to Italy. I had stayed up the entire night before finishing things up. I still couldn't sleep very much on the flights. I don't seem to have that ability.


Jenise watched the boys for us. She truly rocks. She sent this picture of Nate

My seat was broken. They couldn't fix it, but Brad was kind enough to switch seats with me
