2016 style

We started off 2016 in style with Josiah getting pink eye.  Boo.

1/9 - the kids and I decorated a gingerbread house, complete with Yoda and a dinosaur.


 1/23 - we went to Kansas City and got to visit Julie and her cute boys.  This picture was not staged - Josiah requested to hold Jeremiah!

That evening we went to Karen's 40th birthday party - it was really great to see everyone and catch up!  Happy birthday friend!
 The boys got to stay with Andrew & Charlotte at their grandparent's house - they loved it and had a blast!  Thank you JD & Alberta!
 1/26 - oh yes, I really did break out the karaoke machine.
 2/10 - my wonderful husband's birthday.  He was happy because he got good sushi.  Josiah was not impressed with raw fish.  Levi seemed to like it, but still liked the bread better.  :)
 2/11 - school Valentine's day parties!

 Levi had a fun time with his friend Brielle during Josiah's party.
 2/13 - cub scout pinewood derby race.  Josiah specifically worked with Jason to build his car not for speed, but to look like an army Humvee.  He told us he didn't care if it wasn't the fastest.  And then...it ended up being the fastest in his den!


 2/14 - Josiah preached at the church that sponsors his cub scout troupe!  We don't have any pics because we were busy videoing it!  One day I will get that uploaded (but not today).  He talked about love and the story of Ruth.  We practiced a lot and he did a great job!  I was more nervous than he was. So so proud of him.

His grandparents and his great-grandma came to hear him preach.  Then after church we all went out to lunch, and then spent some time at Granny's house.  It was a great Valentine's day.


 2/20 - Jason spent the day helping Grandpa Camp fix fences from all the damage from the flooding in December, and I took the boys to the zoo for the day.  It was a gorgeous day and the animals were really active.
 We even got to see them feeding the hippo which was pretty cool.
 2/21 - our favorite chicken Mrs Fluffy passed away.  She was from our very first batch of chickens and the only one that would let us pick her up.  She will be missed (and no, we didn't eat her).

 2/22 - I helped do some cleaning/organizing with some friends at our church, and Levi played with his best friend Ben in his "office" (which is now the associate pastor's office, much to their dismay).

 2/27 - we had fun celebrating Jason's dad's birthday (Levi "patiently" waiting for cake).
Next up...March and April!
