Who will Levi Be Today?

Levi likes to dress-up in different costumes moore than our other boys. Today, the dragon...

tomorrow the knight...










Sometimes we have to turn our heads when he comes out wearing his favorite Cinderalla dress.

Snow Day January, 2011

We had several snows in 2010-11, but one really big one stood out.

Donna helped all the children don their snow apparel in order to charge out to the "slopes" of our neighborhood for sled riding.

Levi enjoyed really playing in the snow for the first time.

Our Southpaw could throw a mean snowball.

Our snow bunny was mainly focused on just staying warm.

A Short time with Fluffy

Fluffy, our first warm-blooded pet, was Elizabeth's 9 year old present from family. She loved her dearly and held and cuddled with her throughout the day.

She was just as attached to Elizabeth, as Elizabeth was to her.

Unfortunately our time with her was very short. We all took her death very hard, and she was buried in our backyard.

Amidst the sadness, it did give us a chance to talk about the shortness of our lives, as well as the brokenness of this world. Our hope is in Christ, who has redeemed us, and will redeem all things.

Elizabeth's Turns 9

Rather than a 9 year old birthday party, Elizabeth's turning 9 featured a Valentine's tea for the theme. Decorating sugar cookies and cards for loved ones was the main craft, along with eating yummy treats. All the girls had a good time.

Elizabeth is our golden retriever, with a heart of compassion, especially for animals.
