He Reigns

Samantha loves to sing along with the radio. Rob managed to catch her singing along with the Newsboys to "He Reigns." What's really amazing is that she allowed him to video tape her. Usually, she stops singing and throws a fit when she notices the camera. The sound is pretty low, but I think you'll get the idea.

Vacation

Our spring vacation to Southern California was busy and fun. The kids traveled so well. We enjoyed a day a Legoland, quizzing at Point Loma and three days in Disneyland. We spent time visiting old friends and catching up on the last year. Lots of fun memories. Enjoy the photos.

Happy Easter

This is the final product...




This is the test run...Mantha may not always want to do what we ask, but she rarely wants to share the spotlight!

He is Risen!

March

I can't believe that March is gone and April is here and we're getting ready to celebrate Easter. Wow.


Jeffrey turned 12 in March. A tougher day for me than 10 was. Not sure why. Maybe I'm realizing there's one year left before I'm the mom of a teenager. Waahhh! But, I'm proud of that boy and the man he's becoming.


The trailer is ready for camping and we're getting excited about heading out. Rob and the boys are working on widening the gate to the trailer access so it's easier to get in and out of. That will make coming home so much more enjoyable. Rob does a great job moving the trailer around, but it's a tight fit right now, to say the least.


Samantha is talking up a storm. She's persistant in making sure you understand her, as you can see in the video. Nathan is now in glasses, but just for reading. I'm sure it won't be long until he's wearing them all the time. He loves them and was very excited to get them.


Kayla and Jeffrey both qualified for the regional quiz-off in San Diego, so we'll be making our annual trip the end of the month. Looking forward to a day at Legoland, quizzing at Point Loma and several days at the Happiest Place on Earth.


Enjoy the pictures from the last month.

Bible Across America












We had the priviledge of being part of the Bible Across America tour. This being the 30th anniversary of the NIV Bible, Zondervan is taking a bus across America and having people handwrite the scriptures. Jeffrey had heard about it on KLOVE and asked if we could participate. Just days later, I got an email from my mom letting me know they were coming to our town and wondering if we wanted to go. So, after co-op, the kids and I headed down to meet Nana. It was truly an amazing and unique experience. The four of us, Mommy/Nathan, Kayla, Nana and Jeffrey, wrote Isaiah 3:22-25. One of those once-in-a-lifetime moments. If you get the chance, see if they're coming to a town near you...you don't want to miss it!
