A Little Surprise



Today we went to the grand opening of A Little Surprise what a fun place. It's a mini replica of the city and they even chose a mayor of Litte Surprise. All of the kids had so much fun today.

Never a dull moment

OK, Lauren this one is posted for you. This is his latest.

36 Years old in Christ

Today is my spiritual birthday I was saved June 25, 1972 36 years ago. WOW! I am so grateful that my dad & grandfather shared Christ with me when I was young. It's been an amazing road to travel with many ups and some downs but worth every trial. I am also so grateful that God listened to the heart of a 9 year old child. How far I have come over the years but oh how much further I need to go. So Lord as I strive daily to become a Proverbs 31 woman forgive me when I fail and please pick me back up and help me to never give up. Even after 36 years your grace still amazes me.

How many stuffed toys can you get in bed with you?

Another Josh moment

Yes the boy fell asleep on the couch while watching Camp Rock tonight and this is how I found him. I wonder what's going through his mind? Is he thinking or planning his next move. He's funny even when he is asleep.

First Day of Summer

Whats a family to do on the first day of Summer when you live in Arizona and its 115 degrees outside? You find water and get refreshed right? Well kind of first mom gets a big bag of ice throws it in the pool then you get in and relax.
