Sara's birthday # 3

This year Sara had a pajama party for her 3rd birthday. She was so excited about her birthday party coming up, that she couldn't wait this time. Now, that she is getting older, she realizes what a birhtday party means, and she can even tell her age, showing her 3 fingers. She got a Dora cake, and couldn't wait to eat it before her friends arrived for her party. It was hard to keep her and Ingrid off the table, they just love sweet stuff!!! We thank God for her life and for these 3 years of her life and we pray for many, many more. She had fun with her friends dressed in their pajamas. Frank set up a tent with a tube in it, and they had a blast playing, especially Ingrid. Sara a got a neat book from papa and nana, where Sara is one of the characters.

Sara's birthday # 3

First hotel stay as a family

Last weekend I had to speak at a youth event on the coast near the Virginia border, in a town called Moyock which is near Elizabeth City. The church put us up in a nice hotel and the girls enjoyed exploring the room, jumping on the bed, and standing on the heater/AC unit looking out the window from the 3rd floor. We had so much fun and played musical beds that night! Sara and Ingrid started out the night in one bed. Then after about 10 minutes they wanted daddy to come with them, then mommie, so we all were in the same bed! Then it got so hot from all that body heat in one bed and daddy got up and went to the other bed. Then Sara got up and got in bed with him and that is the way we ended up; Mommie with Ingrid and Daddy with Sara. They slept about the whole three hour trip home the next day so that was great. It was nice to get out of town and we thank Kevin, Susan, Eli, and all the wonderful people at Friendship Baptist for inviting us and taking such good care of us, we love you guys!!
