Teen girls over to make caramel apples.  

He made it longer than I expected before testing the treats!

Hey...you can only do so many apples, 

sooner or later the popcorn has to come out!  =)

Delish!!!!!!  Decided next girl's group needed to include exercise! 

Thank you ALL (you know who you are) for spoiling our son on his birthday!  

So much fun to see him transform into a super hero!

 Always enjoy new books to read over and over and over again!  =)

 A new table that Daddy and Caleb put together!  

 New luggage, that he wanted to use right away to go visit Ms. Phyllis with.  

(our sweet sweet neighbor)

 And a lantern to plan the next adventure in the dark.  

Blessed beyond imagine!!!!

 Caleb is 4!!!  So on his special day we asked him where he would like to get lunch?  Duh, McDonalds! Then we asked him where he wanted to eat?  At home, at the restaurant, in the car?  Without hesitation he answered, "The woods.".  =)  So off we went, into the woods!  Praising the Lord for these 4 years and all that He has taught us.  Please pray that we will be parents that hunger and thirst for righteousness, that we will have wisdom on training our son, and that the Lord will draw Caleb unto Himself.  

 Lots of hanging around! 

 If you are around boys in the woods for more than 2 seconds....

you realize that there are more than 842 uses for sticks.

Swords being one of the top 5.

 Was very special that Uncle Isaiah and Aunt Becca got to spend some time with us!  Spoiled us good =) with some much needed clothes for fall AND....

a puzzle as BIG as Caleb!!!!

This year mama earned that medal around her neck!!!  13.1 miles, oh yes, a half marathon.  Dad needs one too as not only did he help train....but made it possible to do it!  Finished just in time to see Isaiah and Becca as they came though town!  What a great day!  (2 hours 19 minutes...if your wondering!)  Woohoo!
