AWANA Grand Prix

Benji didn't have a car, but he enjoyed watching and even getting his own ribbon!
Scott's car......or should we say army helicopter.  He won first place for novelty!

Joshua's bowling alley.....also won first place for novelty.

Marc's UFO........I think was the smallest car there.....fun!

Keith Michael's original idea......just having returned from Brazil......wanted to show his dual citizenship!

Enjoying SNOW with cousins


Many of you who came by our house last week wondered HOW we managed to make a snowman in our yard with last week's SMALL amount of snow.  But when you have boys who have been in Brazil all winter, and cousins from Brazil who have been in Texas all winter.....well, let's just say.....where there's a will there IS a way!

First Tooth Lost

Last Saturday, Scott lost his first baby tooth.  It was VERY ready to come out.....in fact, his permanent tooth was already half in! 

David in Cedarville's Hall of Fame



Last weekend, my brother, David, was inducted into Cedarville's Athletic Hall of Fame for soccer.  I was fortunate to be able to attend this special event.

A WONDERFUL Week at the Beach

Last week we had the privelege of spending a week at the beach. The boys and I went with Grandma and Grandpa. We also took 2 of my nephews. Here is a glimpse of our WONDERFUL time during which we created many great new memories!I am literally SURROUNDED by boys! What a life!While kids up north enjoyed snow ball fights, my kids down south enjoyed a "south-american" snow ball fight. This literally provided these boys with HOURS of entertainment!

Looking for shells.....


Fun in the sand.....



Water fun......

Grandpa tries to coax Benji into trying the surf board.This is how......
.......oops!.......


MORE sand fun......
Grandma snoozes in the sun, while all her grandsons have a blast digging in the sand.


Picnic at the beach......just before leaving for home.Just before heading home.......we haven't quite had enough water! This pool was at the house where we stayed, which was wonderful, as the boys had something to do while Benjamin took his naps......although, many times, they would still go to the beach anyway, and just play in the sand if one of the adults couldn't go right then to watch them swim.
