Our little one is crashed out after her gymnastics meet. She placed 9th out of 87 on Bars. Her over all score was 35,6. Very good season for the first year of competing. #gymnastics #gymmeets #love #levelthree #chinaadoption #family #daughter #blessed #growinguptofast #instagram #memories #sevenyearsold

God has given me an amazing husband and friend! David is my rock. There are so many things that I love about him....his unconditional love for me and our children, how he leads our family in the Word of God, fights for what is right for our family, is an amazing father. I have to say I am in love with my best friend. Love you!!!!!! #husband #father #friend #love #life #marriage

Happy 18th Birthday Shirley

Tomorrow is Shirley's eighteenth birthday! With every ones work and school schedules we celebrated tonight. Hope you have a wonderful day! Happy Birthday to you!!

Our little reader

I am so thankful that this little one LOVES to read! She started first grade yesterday. Jacob introduced her to the Magic Tree House series yesterday. I think she has read three books in the last 24 hours. This picture was snapped on the way to gymnastics. We have to drive about 45 minutes three times a week to gymnastics. The car ride gives her lots of reading time. I have to say Hannah loving to read makes it much easier for teaching her. 

Dinner Time

With a house full this year I have been planning and researching cheap, but GOOD dinners. Perogies, Beef Sausage, and bell pepper. I deep fried the perogies first, sauteed the sausage and bell pepper. Baked at 350 until hot about 30 minutes. Yummy and CHEAP!!
