Happy Birthday Peyton!

A+ Son in law

I just have to brag a bit about our son in law Chris. We are so proud of him. He is working in a church as a Worship Leader/Youth Pastor. Of course that is just the tip of the ice berg he does so much more. He is an awesome singer and guitar and piano player. He performs and is involved in many other parts of the service. He is also attending a Christian College where he makes straight A's. Did I mention that he makes my daughter very happy and he is an awesome Dad to Peyton? He helps Ashley out at home with laundry and house work and builds lincoln log houses and lego castles with Peyton. Oh and he is a great cook! We are very proud of you Chris!

Ashley and Ashley

You might get confused when I write about Ashley sometimes. My daughters name is Ashley and my daughter in laws name is Ashley. They are both the same age and both are beautiful!

My oldest sons name is Chris and my son in laws name is Chris also. Can you understand how happy we were when we found out Chris was marrying a girl named Dana?

No School

We went to school half a day on Monday. We were out today and will also be out tomorrow. Katy and I are already tired of being home. We want to go to town!

Head lights

One of Katy's teachers shared something that Katy had said at school shortly after she had been to get her hair cut. As Katy tossed her long hair over her shoulder she excitedly told the teacher that she had head lights. Her teacher was concerned as she understood Katy to say head lice. (Which was going around school) She asked Katy if she was sure and Katy answered by telling her that yes she was sure because the lady that cut her hair told her she had natural head lights. The teacher quickly realized that Katy meant high lights in her hair and breathed a sigh of relief.

Ridiculous

I couldn't resist posting this after I read Ashley's blog on Peyton's use of the word ridiculous. We were at Walmart and he wanted to walk instead of riding in the cart. I told him if he would stay with me and listen that he could walk but if he didn't he would have to ride in the cart so Nana could keep up with him. Well it didn't take long and Peyton along with his cousin Hayden (Hayden's Mom was there with him) were all over the place and not listening. I picked Peyton up and stuffed him in the front of the cart. I explained to him why he had to ride instead of walk. His bottom lipped dropped and he folded his little arms across his chest and said "This is ridiculous" So Nana quickly gave him another chance.

Our Grandchildren A Gift From God

I pray for you, Brooklynn, Peyton and Hayden, that you each make a decision someday for Jesus. I believe that you will. I am confident that you will be believer’s and carry on the heritage of faith and that the world will be a better place because of you!

Brown Bear Brown Bear What Do You See?

I couldn't resist snapping this picture! Peyton and Hayden brought the chairs up from the playroom and sat down to read. They were both reading their memorized books at the same time. They sounded so sweet reading Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See! Peyton spent a few days with us and Hayden was able to come one day too. They had so much fun together.
