Some fun things we did while in IN

Dakotah and Gavin running around with cousin Mariah
Playing with the fountain!
Skylar testing the waters!
blowing bubbles at Grandpa and Grandma Ceci's cabin (she did this while the other 2 slept!)
Tuckered out after a fun day in the water!

While in IN, we went up to Curt's parent camp. They had the younger kids camp going on! The day we went up, they had an outing to a Water Park! The kids had a BLAST!!!!!!! Then on Wednesday, my mom and I took the kids to the zoo, Curt had a lunch meeting with his dad. That was also a TON of fun (I mean the zoo, not the meeting!) Then that nite, we had a water war going on! Well, basically the kids and my mom had the water war! Let's just say that by the time they were all done, they were SOAKED!!!!! I should've taken out the shampoo and soap and given them a shower outside!!! :O) Then Thursday we spent the morning with Grandma, then back up to the camp grounds for more fun! On Friday we went to a couple of stores and then just chilled the rest of the nite! Then back on the road again Saturday! It was a good trip, fast, but good! The kids were ok in the car, I mean, as good as can be for 10 hours or so, WITHOUT a dvd player!!!! And to think we are doing this trip again on the 27th!!!! Help me!!!!!! Only I will be going in the van with the kids while Curt takes his work car out. He has a DM Conference in Grand Rapids, MI Aug 13th to the 16th or 17th, and he has to drive out there for it. We are leaving July 27th to go to MI to visit some old friends, then on to PA (Aug 3rd to the 5th) for my side of the family reunion, then back home to IN for a week of vacation (Aug 5th to the 12th), then Curt goes to Grand Rapids and then the kids and I are coming home. I don't think we can all make is 3 weeks from being away from home! We shall see!!!!! ;o)

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Judah's Wife Book Review

I received this book from Bethany House for free if I agreed to read and then blog about it. Judah's Wife is by Angela Hunt. I've read a few of her books and absolutely enjoyed and loved them!  I was very excited to be picked to read this book! I've honestly not read anything from the books of Maccabees.  This story is the "silent years' between Malachi and Matthew. I really would like find Maccabees now to read it since I've read this book. This book was amazing! Love being able to read stories that really capture what it was like.  Angela Hunt has done this in this book. I really enjoyed how she told it from Judah's side and Leahs side.  It would go back and forth, but it wasn't confusing at all. Talks about Leahs up-bringing and how she struggled. Her father wasn't a real father figure and in time she realizes how much her mother protected her from her father and his blows. She struggles to truly love Judah at first who was somewhat fo...

written 4-7-18 Wow! It's been a while since I"ve blogged...  Crazy fun times around here!  :) We had a BIG EVENT for our church Friday night.  It was awesome!!!  All about where we are and what we need to finance our new church building we are building!  We were to take a card and pray about a number and donate for the building fund.  It was a FANTASTIC awesome night to say the least!!! Curt and I have been praying about a number that God wants us to give.  We both feel a number, we can't afford.  haha...  We really can't afford anything because we still have 2 adoption credit card bills we are paying off.  God has blessed us and given us what we need each month.  But we want to give, and adding it up and looking at our budget and writing it all out, it's not there.  Nothing is there!  But that's the way it was with adoption!  We took that step of faith! So that was Friday...  Saturday morning went to ke...
