Pictures

So how long did I last at not posting pictures! Not very long. I did try to find some that weren't close up.

Jared is 4

Jared had his 4th birthday on the 7th. He thinks he is the biggest boy ever. We had 3 celebrations. He enjoyed having that. He asked on the 8th if it could still be his birthday. I told him no, but now he is all excited about Halloween and Christmas. As you can see he had the whole family wrapped up playing with his new toys.

new hobby

My sister and I have taken up a new hobby. We are trying to learn how to decorate cakes. My aunt has always done that for our family but she is retiring so we wanted our kids, cousins, and nieces and nephews to have the same fun birthday cakes. Here is a sample of the first ones.

Love to Blog!

I love to blog and tell you all the wonderful things we do as a family and all the cute things that Jared does throughout the days. But I watched a show last night (I know it was fiction) but it made me think. It was about pedophiles and the crazy things they do. I have decided to limit the pictures of us on my blog. I hate that for those of you who don't get to see us very often, but until this show gets out of my head I will try to stick by this. (As you know I am a very forgetful so pictures will probably start reappearing soon) .

Some fun and not so fun things that have happened:

Jared is very concerned about obeying God (not so much mom and dad). He jumped up on Nana's lap the other night and said I obey God and you don't. The weekend before he had stayed with them and they missed church. I guess that was what he was referring to.
He sings a new song about God and the words are something like this:
God will help us
God will help us
yes he will
yes he will
If we ask him to help us
He will be there to help us
yes he will
yes he will


On another note, Kolton had a bike wreck and had to have stitches and broke a tooth. I think he is really sore and beat up. It was the first accident at the emergency room for Kim and James.
