No new pictures of the kids today, so I thought that I would put this card I made instead.

Our week is going well. I need to take more pictures of the kids, and upload them.
They have all been enjoying VBS. The theme this year is a western one.
We have only had one accident, where Jacob came in dripping blood. I had visions of rushing him to the ER, before I got him cleaned up and realized that he had torn his fingernail, just a little further down than you would cut it. All of the blood made it seem worse than it was.
Hopefully, we will survive the rest of the week with no further mishaps.

trial run #3

here goes again. This was the third try for me to get this ppt embedded on our site. I will play around some more with it. THe info itself is esoteric but i am sure my mom (Doris) will find it interesting:) I am trying get this organized so I can post Congo info easier

Sunday Morning

Five children, and we made it to church early! Now that is impressive! Don't they look so cute all dressed up? Caleb loves having his picture taken. After we took the pictures of all five kids together, he kept wanting to take more.

Superheros and more

Friday we went to Whitefish for eye appointments. Then we met Emmy and her kids in the park for a picnic. I didn't get a picture of Simon, their 2 week old, but he is adorable. The kids had fun playing on the playground together. It was a beautiful day to be outside.

These pictures are from later in the evening. The kids all dressed up in different costumes. By the time we found "spiderman's" mask, Isabelle was tired of her costume and mask. We spent one night in Kalispell, and Keith and Jacob came back to Browning with us to spent the week.

Little Princess

On Friday, Isabelle received her birthday package from Sarah. She was so excited about her princess dress. She wore it constantly the rest of the day. (I made her take it off to eat and go outside.) She even wanted to wear it to church this morning, but I didn't let her.

Camping

Stephen and Ian went backpacking yesterday. They hiked five miles to Upper Two Medicine Lake, and camped at the campground there. They just spent one night, and came back. They were able to catch a ride on the boat on the way back, which cut down on their hiking. The highlights for Ian were seeing a bear, and seeing a snake. It doesn't get much better than that for a seven year old boy.

We are never at a loss for playmates at our house. The first picture is a group of kids who were playing in our yard all morning. We were babysitting Kathleen (the one in the light green shirt.) The rest were just over visiting. It worked out well, because everyone had someone around their size to play with.
Kathleen spent all day on Friday with us, and then went home with her dad for about 2 hrs, and came back to spend the weekend. Isabelle has been having a great time with her. Ian and Stephen were camping, so it was fun for Isabelle to have a friend over.
