Happy Halloween!

My little pumpkins dressed up for trick-or-treating and had a fun time gathering lots of candy. Lindsey is a Queen at a masquerade party, Rachel is the princess Ariel, of course, Brady is a kangaroo...

and Zachary...a lion. (And when told "say trick-or-treat", he roared....it was cute actually!)

I think this is the best picture I took all night of the 4 of them. This is with our sweet neighbors, the Worleys, notice Brady is right with the man that gives all the tractor rides.


And Polamalu, a.k.a Bruce, pulled the boys around our old neighborhood in a wagon.


Lindsey posing with the completed carved pumpkins, these are Rachel's and Zach's...


and Lindsey's and Brady's. (She was proud. She carved her own all by herself.)


And these are a few pictures of the kids opening their Halloween package from Grandma Marsha...they loved all the great treats.

Thanks Grandma Marsha! Happy Halloween everyone!

Zachary's Dedication

We were given 4 sweet children to love and take care of. On Sunday, it was Zachary's turn to be officially dedicated back to the One that had given him to us. Zachary is full of laughter and fun and loves to do whatever his older siblings are doing, like horsey rides on Daddy...

being outside...

and his blankie and paci (a.k.a "pappy or pa-pa").

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. " (Deut. 6: 5-7)

We are so thankful for Zachary and all of our gifts from God. We want to leave a legacy for our children and raise them in a way that brings glory to Him.
