one more, JUST for you Aunty!!!

"WE ARE COMING AUNTY!!! CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU!!!
THIS POST IS JUST FOR YOU!!!! WE LOVE YOU! SMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCH!!!"

and then there was... an update!!!!

Well, this is our beginning of summer in a nut shell. We've seen a 2yr old turn 3, a 10month old start to walk, (he's 11months old now, and 1yr in about 2wks!) we road a mini Thomas the Tank Engine Train, ate strawberry's by the bucket, visited many friends, dug gardens, and we are enjoying our warm summer tan... I love summer, but love it even more if I don't have to turn on the air conditioning. I love the windows open with a warm breeze, and sitting by the kiddy pool watching my boys play. Levi is in love with adventure already... he has dove in head first into the little pool, and laughed about it. On the other hand, Miles dies a slow death if he gets splashed, haha... I have funny kids. Nana Joy would be proud, we are raising a mini-Bryce, the pastor side. The report i always get from Sunday school is: "He's a hugger! He is our nurturer, always comforting the other children." I LOVE to here that... makes momma proud. I hope you enjoyed the mini update, sorry for the months gap, but its hard with no Internet... love to all!

heres some photos for you Grammy!

OK, so this is the best i could do with a picture with us all in, i cant find ANY with ALL of us.... Hope these will do the trick! LOVE YA!

God's Promise...

Just a little video of this AMAZING rainbow we saw, it wasss a double, its hard to give it justice on a little video, BUT it was pretty awesome!
Just your friendly neighbourhood reminder of God's promises...

HE never falls through for you.

April and in the pool! WHOA!

Dont know if butts are allowed on blogger land, BUTT, it was too cute to resist.... So as you can see, yes it is still April, but here in VA, we opened our pool... haha, ok ok, it is only a kiddy pool, but still, it was colddddd.... Levi is SO different from Miles. Levi LOVESSS the water, and i mean like "throw me in there!!" kinda love. Bryce is still in NZ, and well i still have like a week without him, Miles is very sad, and every day asks me "where is Daddy?" Its hard of a 2 yr old to understand that Daddy is visiting his mommy half way around the world. All any of us can say is:

WE MISS YOU DADDY!!!

Easter and our Seder meal!

Yes, we are not Jewish, yes we had the Seder meal on Good Friday, BUT we celebrated it in celebration of JESUS our redemption and our provider! It was good, we recorded the whole thing.... boy it was long, not as longgg as tradition states it should be, i think it normally lasts 4 hrs, yeahh thats right a LONGGGG time, i was done like 10mins into it, but it was good, lots of payers and some songs. MIles kept on insisting he wanted to eat alll the motza bread, we had to hold him back!! He is a carb-a-voir.... Oh, any advice for a picky 9month old eater?? Yeahhh, Levi is taking a stance against ALLL food. How did this happen?? Ok, so here are the pictures to tell the story of our Seder....




Easter eggs are a tradition, i dont realllly know why, BUT none the less they are....
Now, the box of dye for the eggs said 5yrs and up, as i laughed at that recommendation, i began to see why a minuet into our "fun." OH, and it was... fun.
See those hulk hands??? He insited he was a dino or something.. haha, cute.


BUT, these are beautiful, arnt they??? The outcome, yesss some brown, but none the less beautiful, love em. Happppy Easter.......

George's Birthday

"This is George, he is a good little monkey, and always veryyy curious."

If, like me, your children are obsessed, or just mildly love Curious George, then you know this quote alll toooo wellll. Every story begins with this. I think this is how I will begin to introduce my children..

"This is Miles, he is a good little monkey, and always verrrry curious..."

So, anyways, we read a book the other night and it was about George's birthday. So naturally we NEEDED to give George a birthday. Miles LOVES birthdays, i mean LOVESsssss them. Every day its:

"G.G's birthday?? Miles birthday?? Miles birthday is COMING!"

hahaha, i love it. so cute.

Sooooo, Miles was NOT sleeping through the night for the last, i dunno, 3 yrs, so I said "if you sleep through the night, then we will have a b-day party for George!!" Well, you can imagine the excitement.

That night, we did not have a full sleep through, soo the next day I had to tell him no party, lets try again tomorrow night! AND finally we did it!

And had a spectacular party.. As you can see, "cake" and all.

The party was great, until Miles blew out the candles before George got a chance... poor George.
