Spring Pics

Spring pics of the kids. My friend Meagan got a new camera & we were testing it out. I think they turned out really cute.

Carter's many faces... continued

I've posted about this before. He's at it again. It's really self explanatory.

Clouds

We've had a lot of clouds around the past few days. Mostly full of rain & gray skies to go with it. But today, I went to pick up the kids after school and I saw something different. On our way home, I wished I had my camera. The skies were remarkable! They were Carolina blue with these gigantic pillowy clouds everywhere along the horizon. The sun came out & it was absolutely beautiful! As soon as we got home I snapped some pictures from our house.







Then as the evening progressed, the storm clouds filled the sky once again & the rained poured down for another couple hours. As I was getting Kensley in the tub & closing the blinds in the bathroom I looked out again & saw more beautiful clouds.


It's almost as if God were telling me.... "look at the magnificent things that I can create. If I can create something so beautiful in the sky, I can create even more in you." It's like God is showing his promise of love as the sun shines through these magnificent clouds. Yeah, sometimes our lives are clouded by all that is going on around us, but when you get a peak of the "SON" through those clouds it's an amazing & spectacular sight to gaze upon. Just like the Lord.

Happy Birthday Chandler!

Today my firstborn turned 9. 9! Wow, that's almost double digits and I'm having a little trouble soaking that in. He's getting so tall (at my chin now) and that means in the next few years he'll be passing on over my head. I'm having the boys official birthay party in June, but we like to celebrate for each kid on their day. We started a little early last night. We had some friends over for supper, so I whipped out a cookie cake. Today was church of course, but we went to eat lunch at McD's (his pick) and came home & he opened his present...FireStation Lego City...loved it & they've been working on building all afternoon & still working at the present. This afternoon we went to see Night At the Museum 2...cute movie, probably not as good as the first one, but that could be because we had a 2 year old that wouldn't sit still for most of it and there was a little distraction involved. We are just hanging out this evening at the house & looking forward to a day off tomorrow.

Chandler you are growing up so fast. You are such a good kid with a good heart & we love you so much!
