Spring 2009

(These pictures are suppose to be in order but I don't know how to move them around so it's messed up. Sorry. You'll just have to use your imagination.)

Cheerleading has been apart of the big girls and my life for the past 5 years. Three years ago the girls and I started a Christian All Star squad called Galaxy All Stars. It has been such great fun and a tremendous experience for all of us. All the different squads have been such a blessing and I've enjoyed seeing my girls skills develop and improve. I guess we'll keep doing this until God says stop. I keep listening for that small voice to say it's time to quit but it never comes. Oh well.

EASTER:

Easter was beautiful and enjoyed by all. The children did an egg hunt at Aunt Mary Lynn's and Uncle Steve's house. The children had so many eggs to find that it averaged out to be about 27 each. Needless to say their baskets were full. It's so fun and a privilege to see the little ones learn so much about our Savior and Christianity. I see His mercy and grace every day with our family. We are truly blessed.

"They really are a splendid crew." That's a line from one of our favorite books called the Seven Silly Eaters. God placed that book on my heart years ago when Victoria was in Kindergarten. Little did I know that that is what we would really become.

Other Family Times

Here are a few pictures from our trip to Disney. We had planned to do this as our Adoption Celebration. That has not happened yet so we went ahead and did it anyway. We told the 4 little ones we were going to another Adoption family camp in Florida. As soon as we got to the Disney gate we said "Oh no, Daddy made a wrong turn. We're at Disney! Should we stay?" They all screamed YES!!! So they were thoroughly excited and surprised to say the least. We did Magic Kingdom, Epcot and Blizzard Beach water park. The weather was great and we couldnt have planned it better. What great memories were made.

The children all did fantastic. We went none stop to get our "monies worth". We must have slept a week after we got back.
