Three Weeks

Sydney & Ethan enjoy feeding Jake a bottle last Saturday morning.



Ethan tilling the land to plant wildflowers

Jake in his Sweet Peace swing from Gran

One of the best things about this swing is that the seat comes out and Jake's carseat can snap in!
Reid was in the army today in his raincoat!
3 weeks old today!

Ethan's & Reid's bunk bed was a Christmas gift from Grammy & Papa. They just got new comforters and Curious George sheets with birthday money. Thanks Grandma, Gran, and Grandpa & Grandma Z!
Ethan just started wrestling with a local team. It's been awesome to watch Jeff practice with him. Here he is with his new wrestling shoes. He was so concerned with keeping his eyes open for the photo that he couldn't smile!

Sydney poses in a new dress. Yesterday, she celebrated her 3/4 birthday at school since she has a summer birthday. More importantly, it was also a spiritual birthday for her, as she was born again 4 years ago yesterday. She shared the story with her class about how at age 3 3/4 while we were waiting in the service station for our oil in the van to be changed, she prayed to ask Jesus into her heart. One thing I love about her story is that her desire to be born again was unprompted by me, it was only the work of the Holy Spirit. Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!

I'm most impressed with how neat the kids room is. Seriously, even after a long day of cleaning our kids room never looks that clean. Sweet pics of kids/baby, you need to jump in one sometime.
