Zeke has been changing and growing so much over these past few weeks. Last Saturday his first 2 teeth came in on the bottom. And since we got to Grammie and pop pops he's been reading books, dancing and singing. I'm serious. He's say "buh...buh" (book) and points to the pages in the book while babbling the whole time. And last night while faith was playing the piano he was on his knees and started...
Everyone playing together so well this morning with play-doh. So thankful for times like this when they are all enjoying each other. Eli has been watching storm chasers so this is his tornado.

Eli keeps doing these little experiments in the house. This one was hot water with salt and red food coloring that he called "blood water". And the snake in the tub...well if you stare at it long enough it looks real and totally freaks me out. Eli keeps doing these little experiments in the house.

We did pumpkins last night. Super fun as always and lots of creativity. Eli did his own cutting this year. Super proud of him. We did pumpkins last night. Super fun as always and lots of creativity. Eli did his own cutting this year. Super proud of him. ...
Here's to the last few days we have on the northwest. Fort building is so fun and I'm sure it will continue when we get to Hawaii. Love it when they play like this :) Here's to the last few days we have on the northwest. Fort building is so fun and I'm sure it will continue when we get to Hawaii.

I thought I would send an update on some news we got over the weekend. Last Monday we had an offer on our house and even though that offer would mean we would walk away with $0 money, we gladly accepted it. Later that week we had the inspection for that offer. The next morning we received the report from the inspection and it was not good. We learned that the foundation of our house...

I worked on the yard today and I pretended like it was gonna be mine for a long time. If I was doing it like it was only mine for 6 more months I might not have worked as hard. And I guess that's what I have to keep doing. Silas is now doing some physical and speech therapy. He has some minor delays in both areas but it's nothing that can't be fixed with...
Jeff asked me to write. So here it goes.... I've been thinking lots about what it's gonna mean to move to Kauai. Jeff asked me to write whats been going on from the perspective of the mom/wife. Really its all very surreal. Most days it's still something I can't even imagine actually happening, even though Jeff keeps telling me it will. Recently though I find myself looking more closely at the things around me that...

Here is Eli's entry for the Fair & Stampede this year. (All his words) Support Garbage Boat What does it do?: "It supports our world and helps our world stay alive and not get filled up with garbage." How does it work?: "It works by cleaning up garbage. The big pushers make big waves behind it so the garbage can go into the big box in the back. Then it drops off the garbage at...
So baby Zeke is 3 weeks today and he's really a sweet boy. The boys love to run up and say hi to him, Eli loves to kiss his head and says "Hi sneaky, I love you". Silas loves to say "He's still so cute!" and then slip his finger in his little hand. Moses wants to hold him and then he just giggles. I hold him and look at him in complete awe and...
It doesn't get any better than this. This is his favorite outfit these days. But it was raining today so I told him he had to wear socks and a long sleeve shirt. After having a tantrum about that he finally put them on. I still gave him a choice of which shirt to wear underneath and I wasn't gonna push wearing a sweatshirt. Hat was his pick! But he still had a fit when...
Seaside Kauai!!! So we posted the initial story last month and then this month we wrote out the whole story and made it into a book. Kind of a "out of the box" support letter. Only it's not a letter, it's a book, and we're not asking for supporters but rather partners. It's always humbling to tell your story and then in the end have to trust Jesus for all the provision to be met. ...
