Picture Perfect

This is Shoshannah first professional photo shoot. I think they turned out great.

No Girly Girl Here

Shoshannah has been so sick this week that yesterday I let her escape to the backyard to breathe fresh air and have some fun. Here is her idea of fun.

Having Fun with Big Sisters

These are some pictures of Shoshannah goofing around for the camera. Arielle is behind the camera and Danielle was getting Shoshannah to pose. By the time it was over we were rolling with laughter. Life is GOOD.

Creative Juices are Flowing

It is 6:15 am and Shoshannah is making a tent. What fun we are going to have today.

Girls and their rings.

Yesterday the youth of our church and many other churches made a pledge of purity. True Love Waits is a wonderful concept to get young people to make a pledge to remain sexually pure until God brings them into a Biblical Marriage. At our church we had 200 young people recommit to this pledge or take the pledge for the first time. Both our older girls participated this year, Arielle for recommitment and Danielle for the first time. While I believe it is the job of parents to teach and encourage Purity to all areas of our children's lives I appreciate our Church for their willingness to support our young people on this tough walk. The world is throwing so much garbage their way it is great that a a corporate body of believers we can come together and pray and love on these young people. We are proud of our children and their stand of faith.

Our BIG Snow Day

We awoke last Monday to snow! Yes, all my northern friends this is what we call snow. Living here you learn to be thankful for even the smallest of dustings. The girls were excited and out playing at 8am, which was very good as it was melted by 10.

Andrew Has A Golden Ticket

A Golden Ticket. well actually it is white, blue and made of plastic. But today marked another phase in this journey of life. Andrew obtained his driver's license. So watch out world! Especially those in Hampton Roads.

Great job Andrew!.
