Outside time and a new video...

Little buddies

Yes! I found some hair bows for Ella that will stay in her fine baby hair! I found one in every color so you'll be seeing these a lot! One of the joys of having a girl!


Bubble blowing buddy

He insisted on wearing his spider man slippers outside in 90 degree weather!

I love days like this! Nowhere to go... nothing that has to get done... (Well, except for the bookkeeping, the laundry, the dishes, and 100 other things on my list! :o) Just some time to go outside and blow bubbles and run around chasing them. Naptime is my time to get a few things done and as you can tell, I am writing on the blog instead! OK back to work. Thanks for checking in on us! Have a great day!
I had to add this tonight...
Anson and I were reading his Bible before bed and He started to "read" all by himself. He knows many of the stories by heart, and this is one about David and Goliath. Here are the words that he says (almost word for word from his Bible!) :
Goliath wants to hurt God's people with his spear and sword. David is using a slingshot to throw a stone at Goliath. David knows God will help him! The stone hit Goliath on his face and Goliath fall down dead. And God's people be safe!


"Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Teach them to your children, talking about them as you sit at home, when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates so that your days and the days of your children may be many in the land that the Lord swore to give your forefathers, as many as the days that the heavens are above the earth." Deuteronomy 11:18-21

Arin,
What a blessing and encouragement it is to watch as you "train" your children in the way they should go. Thank you for such a strong testimony as a godly mom! Looking forward to seeing you Saturday! Tell Anson I have his surprise all ready! :-)

You are doing such a great job of laying a foundation of scripture for Anson to build his life upon!

How sweet it is to hear him "read" the Word of God!

Where did you find those bows? I'll have to get some for Charlotte!
