What we've been up to

We've had some fun times lately and I have taken a few pictures.  In no particular order ~ here you go!

 There's something special about those grandparents!!!  (Vivian sharing Grandpa's ice cream.)  My mom and dad flew up to Richland to see Kim and Adam's new house and we met them there for the weekend.  We had a great time of hanging out in their beautiful backyard, grilling, visiting a local farm, celebrating with Reliance Fellowship and so much more.  Thank you, Mom and Dad for coming to see us!!!  We all love you so much!!!!

Movie time!

...and that's all the pictures I took of our time in Richland.  :)

here are the rest of the pictures: GGG in Richland

Jared still fits in a diaper box.  Those silly kiddos.

Handsome boy ready for church, with his hands in his (newly found) pockets.

Sometimes we call him Linus!

He loved this!

The girls are doing AWANA for the first time this year and they are loving it!  Well, Shelby loves it.  Vivian is a little scared of the "loud" game-time leader; but, she does enjoy the rest of the Cubbies.  Last week was Crazy Hat Night.  

Jared can swing a bit on his own swing, but he loves to spider-swing with Shelby!  We all get some good laughs in as he lets go with one hand often and scares us all.  He hasn't fallen off yet!

Kiddos sharing some oatmeal for breakfast.

Shelby is doing very well at reading and we decided it was time for her to have her very own Bible!  There were lots to choose from, but we settled on this one and had her name put on it.  She is very glad to have her own Bible.  She has read the story of David and Goliath, and she is underlining the Bible verses she has memorized.  {Makes our hearts so happy that she loves Jesus!}

Happy Fall y'all!
