Lots of Pictures

Here are many pictures from our day. I narrowed them down quite a bit, but do not mind putting alot of pictures here because I know that Grandmas love pictures. ;)

And, Marisa, there is a note for you at the end...

First of all, there is a new lawn mower! My men are grateful! We love having a nice yard and my husband takes a lot of pride in keeping our lawn kept up nicely. It has been a bit of a challenge to do that the last few weeks. The lawn mower came last night and he was on it first thing this morning. It has several great new features, but our personal favorite is the cup holder. (So high tech!)

I enjoyed watching my handsome husband on the new machine.



My very thoughtful Mother sent the children a kite a few weeks ago. We had been wanting one, but had not invested in one. Only God knew of our want...and sent it through my Mom. I love how God provides needs AND many wants. The weather and wind were perfect today and the kids had a great time with their new toy. Thanks, Mom, for the fun package! I love you!








Did you want my help??

Are you sure? I am pretty handy with this stuff...

Jonathan spent most of the "kite time" oblivious to the rest of us. He was lost in his own four year old world. He sang and talked, ran and crawled, stared at things that only he saw. He was content and happy. I found such joy as I watched him just soaking in the world around him.





Our turkeys stayed away all morning because of all the action around our yard. I missed them. They made an appearance tonight and fed about four feet from the house. They saw me in the window taking their picture, but did not let that bother them too much. I know I post a lot of these...but I saw that "bad" picture on Michelle's blog and had to try to remedy that! Just kidding! I am married to a hunter. I need to enjoy my turkeys in pictures now and in the oven later. (Sorry, Mom!)

To end my day my kitchen table became a battle zone. With all these boys in the house, this is a common occurrence.


With Daddy and five sons, Rachel and I are very protected. :D


Bramma, your comment came through! I was excited to find it this morning. I am glad you were able to figure it out. I love you!

Marisa, I was thrilled to hear from you! You are on my "all time favorite people list". (Did you know I had one?) I am excited you have a blog and I looked at it today. I would have left you a comment, but it would not let me. I do not know if you have enabled commenting on your blog? Post lots of pics...I will be checking your blog often! ;) I love you!

And to all of you who looked at this very long picture post-
Thanks for stopping by,
