A Baxter Update


Here's Baxter playing Scrabble! Ol' Bax thinks he's part-human. Truth is, Baxter just likes to be doing whatever we are doing. He is a cherished part of the family and a daily reminder of the power of the Word and prayer. (For the whole story, go to the old posts and read up!)

This is Baxter's other favorite activity - sleeping - especially with a buddy!

"Easterbread House"


We ran out of time to complete our gingerbread house this past Christmas. So, we saved it and gave it to the girls to decorate for Easter. It was neat to see what they came up with. I think they were pretty creative and it made good use of the kit.

Green Day! (March 17th)

OK! WE'RE BACK!! We have been running a bit behind lately in posting. (I am sure you have noticed.) I will try to catch you up. "Green Day" started several years ago in an effort to reinforce the colors for Leah. We decided that we would do it on March 17th and wear green and eat GREEN! A holiday was born! The girls get so excited thinking and planning for Green Day. (It is the small things in life that often create the best memories!) Here are some shots of this past Green Day.


The breakfast meal is always the most interesting. This year it was green eggs, homemade cinnamon rolls with green icing and green milk. It sure tasted better than it looks!
