Birthday Extravaganza!!!

I think everyone we know is having a birthday over the past month! We had the privilege of going to two more this weekend. Friday after school, Mason and mama go to go to Grayson and Drew Gaddis' birthday party! He had a blast there. It was fire truck themed and he came home with a little fire truck and a fire extinguisher that actually is a squirt gun! He doesn't know that yet, so let's keep it on the down low!!!

Saturday afternoon, we got to go to Lauren Wade's 1st birthday party. She was actually one year and three days, but who's counting! The kids had a blast. As you can tell, this is the best picture my wife could get because they wouldn't stay still. I have several pictures, but most were blurry. I'm going to have to remember to put the camera on "sports" mode with the fast shutter to catch these kids in motion!

Parker T. was in the house also! He is getting really big! He is looking all suave in his big boy clothes. He better get his act together, he's going to be a big brother about the same time Mason will!!! We had lots of fun at Lauren's party...especially eating cake!


That was the bulk of our weekend. Church was good Sunday. Mason asked tonight how Jesus rose from the dead on the third day. He literally wanted to know HOW. We tried to explain that is why Jesus is so special...and he seemed to accept it. He is very technical these days with his line of questions, so I know this one will come up again. He asked Amber about cemeteries the other day, to which she explained that is were we bury bodies after people go to be with Jesus. The next day he wanted to know if there were any little boys or girls there. That is way too big an issue for him to be wrapping his brain around. Amber said, "No...mostly old people." What do you tell your 3yr. old? AND he also asked, "Is Goliath in heaven?" I know the answer, but if you tell him no, he's going to want to know where Goliath is! Amber didn't answer that one, she was just silent, and he said, "He probably is."


I pray for wisdom each day...I think I will start praying for LOTS of wisdom to be able to answer my little "question machine!"

Ahhhh, isn't it just FUN? =0)

Hang in there - before you know it, he'll know everything and you'll know nothing. Just ask our kids!
