We have been busy as usual! The kids are doing well and are already enjoying summer! Tyler and Micah finished up school about 3 weeks ago. EG still has a week to go. Sophie had her 5K graduation last Thursday and I will do school with she and Jax off and on during the summer.    We are nigh on the one year mark of Jaxs' adoption. Wow, do we love this guy.  He has been such a blessing to our family and has fit in so well.  His English has improved leaps and bounds....still struggling with the pronouns..I think Bert will forever be a "yes mam".    He still loves to eat noodles and he has them at least once a day. A local chinese restaurant made him some chicken feet last week. They also gave me a big bag to freeze and the lady there promised to come teach me how to make them. (oh I wish you could hear my lack of excitement in typing that)...(they stink).  Anyways, Tyler got his permit back in April and is driving all over the place. He has been doing an excellent job!!    We have an exciting summer ahead of us with trips to the lake, camping, boys going to Tulsa for a youth conference, and hopefully a lot of time at home vegging out at the pool.

Easter 2011

We had a wonderful Easter Sunday.  It has been so awesome as Jax has learned how God came down from heaven, robed himself in flesh and died for our sins.  The hardest part for Jax is that he is not happy that Jesus died for "bad  guys" too!!
 He loved the Easter egg hunt and coloring the eggs, it was all a new and wonderful experience. We also had our annual Easter bash which includes wonderful friends, awesome food and a huge egg hunt!

Tyler turned 15 the end of March. He is going to get his permit tomorrow. This all seems so surreal, and of course can only mean one thing.. BERT must be getting older.
