Random thoughts..

Well, Gavin's surgery went well yesterday. He was a trooper! He did'nt walk yesterday much, but has got around a bit today. He is still on pain meds so as we slow them down, hopefully he will continue to improve. Thanks for all your prayers! On a sad note, we learned this week a dear friend of ours went home to be with the Lord. A Mid-40s year old man who loved the Lord died instantly from a massive heart attack leaving behind a wife and 4 kids. It has made us think how life is so short and we truely have no idea when God will call us home. It has made me want to always make sure my loved ones know how much I love them! We know the Lord gives and the Lord takes away, but through it all he is with us. I learned today Alvins' skin, corneas and bones are all going to be used to help other people- what an amazing gift! We will miss him dearly, but find rest in knowing we will be see him on the other side. We'll attend his Memorial Service on Saturday to celebrate his life. They are an amazing family whose lives will never be the same again, but God has a plan for them.

We spent Sunday afternoon outside and here are a few pics from our afternoon.

Daddy working w/ Brayden on the Tee.. his opening day is next Saturday.

Heres Morgan at the farm... poor little thing!

Watching TV.... deep in thought...

Love this little guy! He will have hernia surgery next Tuesday.... AND... we just found out he can't bend his right thumb- there are no creases on it! CRAZY... even CRAZIER is my brother can't either... genetics? coincidence? who knows!!!!

My cutie...I seriously have WAYYYYYYYYYYY to many pics of this kid... but can you really have "too many" pics of your kids? Nah...

I love this little face.. she just woke up, so she looks kind of sleepy, and her hairs a mess, but she likes to sit in the bay window and wait for daddy...so cute!

Here and there....

We have been keeping busy willing spring to come. We went to the Please Touch Museum with friends on Monday- I was a bit nervous- 2 adults and 5 kids, but we great! The kids had fun and no one got lost! Today we went to Terhune Orchards and just hung out, ran, and attempted to tire everyone out. We found out Morgan is deathly afraid of the geese, and turkeys that trot around, unlike her brothers who were chasing the poor things! Here are some random shots from the museum and here and there....


The crew... 2 Gavins, Owen, Brayden and Morgan
