A little bit of this and a little bit of that

This post is just going to be a jumble of things from the last several days. A few pictures from Josiah's t-ball game. I just can't help it...he's the cutest little t-ball player ever!

This past weekend we drove down to Dayton to see our special friends, the Geaslens. We only got 24 hours with them but it was worth the drive. It's amazing to see the strong bond that our children have formed with each other. Abigail and Eve have been playing together since they were 1 and the rest of the kids have known each other from birth. Our time with them is never long enough but was well enjoyed.

Today we were driving home from school and there was a man standing by the road wearing a chicken costume and holding a sign that said, "Haircut SALE $6.99". I had just been thinking that the boys needed haircuts so we went in. I asked out of curiosity what the connection between a chicken and haircuts is. They said that there was no connection, just trying to get attention. It worked! The girls decided they wanted cuts too and since it was just $6.99 I agreed. They ended up with short, angle cuts (as Abigail calls it). They are both happy and now I don't have to worry about doing Chloe's hair (which she hates) so it's all good.

Finally, I'm including pictures of our Michigan house so you can see where we live now.
It's small but we're making the best of it. It's in a nice neighborhood with lots of kids and fun hills for riding bikes. :)

Enjoy the pictures and Happy early Mother's Day!












I just had to throw this picture in at the last minute. This is what happens after spending the day with Grandma playing and taking long bike rides!

What lovely photos! I couldn't help but comment - we're back in Scotland now, but were in MI in Spring. Had a wonderful (understatement!) time, and hope we'll be able to get back sometime.
What a lovely family you have been blessed with. Praise be to Him - the Giver of all good gifts.
Love, Anne (in Scotland) x
