familiy fun



family fun is the best magazine/website!! it has super cute ideas! i found this little firehouse that you can make out of cereal boxes, egg cartons and bottle caps. the boys had so much fun with it, and i used it as part of school too. thanks to enchantedlearning.com i found some extra things we used to do math with a firefighting theme! thought i would share some pictures!

a few updates










first, i thought i would share the latest little find for my bathroom...target special!
secondly, i am sharing a few pictures of last weekend when mel was here for her birthday. the boys put a picture of them in a frame, and then wrote messages on the mat. they were very excited to give it to her!
thirdly, i am putting a few pics of aj's basketball game today. i am so proud of him! he got up this morning and did his devotions, which was on humility he told me. then we got ready, and headed off to basketball. his team won 30-2 and aj had 12 points, and 6 assists. he was so sweet - he could've easily shot and made a basket every time down, but he would just pass, then they would shoot and miss, so he would rebound and pass again, and the same thing happened over and over. the coach from the other team came up to him after the game, and said "you had a great game today. you are a great team player" i was glowing...what an amazing testimony he already is in the town, and i am just so proud of the godly young man he is turning into. adam said to me, "aren't we so lucky our kids are just so good?" haha...we get that a lot, people just act as if our kids just miraculously turned out good. yup...we just sat back and watched :) God really is good though!! we are blessed.

new bathroom

my sister melanie bought us new bathroom towels for christmas, and so she inspired me to re-do our bathroom! i am just about finished...a few more touches are needed, but i painted the walls (haven't done the trim yet) painted the cabinets, re-did the floors with "tiles" (ok, they're the peel and stick, but still!!) and got a new light. i LOVE what it looks like and thought i would share :)
