My birthday celebration!

We recently celebrated my birthday! My family made it very special for me. Several birthday parties, very thoughtful gifts, and lots of yummy deserts. John even made me my favorite meal (Thanksgiving)!

But these are the gifts I am most thankful for:

Precious smiles!

Chloe's Birthday Celebration!

We recently celebrated Chloe's 3rd birthday! We had some Hungry Howie's Pizza (yumm) and cake and ice cream! She is such a joy and a blessing and is always so pleasant and appreciative! Happy Birthday Chloe, mommy and daddy's sweet angel!

Chloe got some Poppy Dip dresses for her birthday! Check out the link to the left, these dresses are hand made and absolutely gorgeous! Chloe loved them and she loves to spin in her new skirt!

Homeschool Update

PRAISE GOD!! Homeschooling is going very well for Bethany. I know we just started recently, but the changes we’ve seen already are HUGE!! She is motivated, taking initiative, getting her work done (without begging – in fact, sometimes she even works ahead :-), excited about learning, and smiling, smiling, smiling. Although if asked, she may tell you she’s actually doing more work than she was at school and taking more subjects, she is not stressed and worn out like before. Her personality and character are blossoming right before our eyes! I am just so thankful for this process! What an answer to prayer!

Chloe's Birthday Week! - Celebration One (more to come:-)
