A birthday

E with bday ice cream

E is another year older. My sweet baby boy just keeps growing up. We are so proud of him. His current favs are Mario & Luigi Legos, playing with friends, Super Mario on the Wii, Star Wars, memorizing scripture, hanging with his siblings and cuddling with mom and dad.

Brothers

Strike a pose

J is George Washington, E is a random soldier and Joy is Winn, a spy in the American Revolution. I am so happy when the kids take school and apply it to play. Oma school for the win!

A boy and his guitar

J is starting group guitar classes at Branches this semester. We were very excited and took his guitar to get new strings, because it wouldn’t stay in tune. At the store, we found out that nylon strings for the beginning of their life stretch a lot. We saved money and instead got picks. J is excited to tune his guitar regularly.
