New Family Pictures

Last weekend we went to get some family pictures. Here are a few of the poses. The children did really well while having the pictures made. We had them done at JCPenny's. The lady that did them was great. These were the best pictures that I have ever had done.

Farewell to a dear friend

Yesterday I went to the Life Celebration of my best friend's step-dad. He had been battling leukemia for 3 years, COPD and emphysema. He had been in the hospital for a month when he came down with pneumonia. While there he got an infection that he just could not beat. He was a crazy wonderful Christian man that I loved like a father. It is sad that he is no longer with us but we know he is in Heaven singing his praises to God. His name was Travis Withers. If you think about it please say a prayer for his family during this time. He was married for 30 years. they were a very happy couple. Brenda will have a rough time right now.

Easter

We had a good Easter. We went to service on Saturday night. Then my family that lives in our area came over for lunch on Sunday. The kids always enjoy having their cousins, LaoLao, Aunt Sharon and Palpaw and his wife Mary over. Ethan cried when they left. Hannah asked me all day Saturday and Sunday when we were going to hunt eggs.

Finally, I get to hunt for eggs.


Look at all of my eggs.

Here they are in their Easter outfits. I made Hannah's dress for her. She really liked it. She helped me some with the sewing. I was pleased with how it came out. It was the best thing that I have ever sewn.
Here is little grasshopper's new glasses. We just got them this afternoon after work and school. You could tell from his reactions that he could actually see now. All the way home he continued to look out the window at everything that he could see. I think that he looks very cute. Now if I can just get him to stop touching the lenses all the time it would be great.
