Farewell Christie and Brett!!

As most of you know, my sister Chrisite and her husband Brett just left for Tanzania, Africa to be missionaries for the next 7-10 years...Boooohooo! We will miss them greatly, but look forward to "Skype"ing them often. We met them at the airport to say good-bye.
Kaleb loooves to be elevated 9 feet off the earth by uncle Brett! One last time at the airport. I doubt the next time we see them, he will be able to lift Kaleb up with one hand.

Ahh, how sweet! We miss you Uncle Brett and Aunt Christie!!!


CARS, ROCKS, DIRT AND DOGS...

"These are a few of my favorite things" I know its been quite a while since I've updated our blog but we've been quite busy since the weather has been nicer. We've also been lucky to be spending a lot of the last two months with family on both sides. Above Kaleb is diving into the lake near our house after throwing many rocks into it. Why not take a dip after a hard days work.
When we were in VA visiting my parents in February it was 60 degrees when we arrived. Two days later there was 8 inches of snow!! We improvised on our clothing since we did not expect the cold weather. Go ahead, laugh...I was wearing my sisters hat, my dads sweater, my pants and my mother's boots...Kaleb liked the snow as long as I was holding him...He had his first plane ride on this trip. He did well and I'm hoping he will do just as well on our trip to Greece in May.

Look at this man work! We have spent many unexpectedly warm days at the park lately.



So, this was a slab of ice from Kaleb's swimming pool. He spent a long time skating on it. He had a blast.


Kaleb has been on a shoe kick...He loves them so much that it is the first thing he thinks about when he wakes up in the morning. He will run to his closet and ask me to put on his shoes. Since he has on his footie pajamas, only a few will actually fit. His frog wellies work perfectly b/c they are a little big for his feet.
