Baptism Sunday

Dalton got up with BIG smiles. We had 2 presents for this special occasion. We got him a new Bible and Dylan picked out a Bibleman mask and cape for him. He loved both of his gifts. We are so proud of him.







Dalton had to stand on 2 cement blocks. Then they both had to be moved for the next young lady to be baptized.
Dalton was floating away once he went under. Poppa had to catch him I think he wanted to go for a swim. These pics are blurry because the camera was focusing on the pulpit that was right in front of me but at least we have the memories.
And the afterparty at Grammys. All of Dalton's aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents were present on both sides of the family. We are thankful that they were all there to witness the event. They stopped everything in their own worlds to let Dalton know how huge this was!! We are all so proud.






And the guys did the clean up. I've already said it to each of you before, but thank you so much for sharing in this special day with Dalton. He still talks about it and loves that Jesus now lives in his heart.

Cabinet fun

I found this when I walked in the kitchen the other day.
I heard voices in the cabinet.

And then I found the children. Now I've moved all the dishes to he bottom shelf. They can get in the cabinet and play all the time. Their favorite time to do this is on Sunday mornings.

When they sit under the drawers they call it their carport.











Update

Well...we're still here it's been a long time since Sept 8th. So sorry for the delay, posting pictures on here just takes so so so long. I have to give it up for Christy, she posts almost daily and posts lots of pics. I just don't have the patience. Sorry.

Anyway, we've been busy. Dyl obviously by now has gotten his cast off. He now runs around saying, "I've got two hands" When we tried to open things for him, he would say "No, I dood it I got two hands now" Very independant.

Dalton accepted Jesus as his Saviour. VERY PROUD PARENTS HERE!! We're absolutley elated to know that huge decision has been made so early. We know that he will still sin, but it's great to know that as a Christian Jesus blood still covers our sins. I'm just so glad that he's my brother in Christ and will be with me in eternity.

Dylan plays dress up ALL the time, he's either Woody, Buzz, a football player (with a baseball helmet that he calls a football helmet) or Darth Vader. He uses his imagination constantly. There is never a dull moment.

Dalt is now a yellow belt in Tae Kwon Do. He goes almost every night. We usually don't go on Friday's due to football games. It was neat seeing him test. He's so little and yet he can yell so big. He's really quite shy when he has to do things on his own.

They still both love school. We've been out for fall break this week, so Monday will be a tough morning. They've been sleeping til 7...it's really been nice.

As for me and my spouse, we're great. Michael is now working 4 ten hour days AND every Friday. He was told he'd have Fridays off, but maintenance CAN'T be off when machines still run, so he's there. It's okay we get at least 10 hours of overtime each week. I am just still loving teaching girls PE. Makes me all the more sure that I want no more children in case one is a girl:)

Now for the pics.
