HRS (Huffy Rocket Skills)

So I'm out in the garage, tip-toeing around on my bike that has been newly stripped of its training wheels, waiting patiently for the hour when Dad promised me he would take me to the long/straight bike trail to learn how to actually ride my stripped down ride; when a neighbor appears and I politely give a wave, only to realize I'm pointed down the driveway and gravity is still in effect. A quick shimmy and recovery, followed by my feet finding the pedals, I turn back up the driveway and start pumping. . . .the rest is history. Check it out. . .

Easter Celebrations

Great Easter celebration with time spent at church,
receiving a great message from Pastor Mike,
followed by a relaxing day of play
and fellowship at Noni and Papa's....

Notice I didn't say "cooperation"...
no family pictures were to be had!
(mommy gave up)

Hannah had the misfortune of having a icky ear ache....

requiring a little extra lovin....

and medication....

giving us bouts of smiles and energy.

I had no problems smiling and providing lots of
entertainment for the group.

Thank you Jesus for "being rose from the ground"
and saving us from our sins!
We love you!!!

excitement in this neighborhood!
