We Love Oma
We had a lovely Easter Sunday again this year, and celebrated the end of our Passion Week studies with our traditional brunch at Nana’s. Oma, (Grandpapa’s mother) doesn’t always get to join us at our family events, but it seems that Easter is one that she makes a special point Continue Reading
Our Ninja Warrior
Aidan and Alexander are both back in gymnastics this year, and recently completed the first Ninja Warrior Challenge at their gym. Aidan loves gymnastics, and had a blast doing these little obstacle courses. We put together a fun collage for him, and thought we’d share. Bravo Aidan, Mission Accomplished!
What to do on a summer day… what to do, what to do?…

Teehee– Aidan is learning some very cute tricks. and is completely excited about participating more and more in our world. In Sabbath School we’ve been doing the memory verse, “Everything God made was good!” with hand symbols… big arms (everything), pointing up (God made), and lots of happy clapping (was Continue Reading
We’ve got a crawler!
This week, Aidan decided that he’d had enough of this sittin’ stuff and ventured out on hands and knees. Much to his delight, he discovered that he could indeed move forward in the direction of his choice instead of just backwards! David found this neat little program on the computer Continue Reading

We did a few round of cookies this year- though mostly stuck to sugar cookies and decorating. Grammy came down one Wednesday and we did some punch-outs with our good friends the Mills. Later we got together to let the kids do some decorating together. Alex and Muma punched out Continue Reading
