Time to catch up!

Yay!  I get to use Brent's laptop so I can do a few blog postings.   :)  So much has happened, so I will spare some of the details in the interest of your time...

We studied the letter "T" and went up to Saginaw to watch the trains.  Papa Jon told us just where to go to get the best chance to see some.  We had a great time!  We got some fried chicken and took it out for a tail gating party. We were there for a few hours and saw three trains.  The weather was beautiful!

 Peter turned 5!!  Wow!  Such a big boy, I can't believe it.  We had an extended family party, but unfortunately those pictures are on the hard drive that we cannot retrieve from at the moment...so here are just the pics from our little family party.  I made some homemade frosting for his cake...and one of the joys of childhood is liking the paddle to the mixer.

 Peter kept saying that he turned a "whole hand".  :)

 Lady turned 8 months on Peter's 5th.

 He had a Captain America birthday...the bigger party had a cake from Sam's and balloons and so forth.  But, like I said, this party was a little smaller.  But I did put Captain America riding a four-wheeler atop this cake.  And sprinkles, gotta have sprinkles.

We are so blessed to have our little, I mean, BIG Peter in our lives.  The Lord has given us such a mighty task in being parents and we pray that in the end we are found faithful.  We constantly lean on His grace and His wisdom to shepherd Peter's (and the others) heart and we give God all of the glory for having made it 5 years.  Here's to MANY MORE!
