Grammie-Goo Visit

 My mom was able to come for another visit this summer.  My dad was missed very much and we can't wait to see him in a couple weeks!!!  While my mom was here we went to the Boise Saturday market.  Papa sent the kids some fun money....like he always does.  So the kids brought their money to the market and the girls bought flowers.  They were so excited to show Papa what they bought.  Levi has his money in his piggy bank.  

 My mom got to go to church with us Sunday morning. 

 Sunday afternoon we took my mom for a drive around the area and showed her some of our favorite sites and places to go.  

Family Boat Ride

This past July my parents came for a visit.  One of the highlights of the trip was taking them out on our boat.  We went up to Lucky Peak reservoir.  It was HOT and the water was so refreshing. We spent the entire day on the lake.  

Kimmy and Lulu!

Kimmy, Levi, Grammie-goo and Lulu!

Papa jumped into rolled off the boat into the water.  

Lulu and Levi loved swimming with Papa.  They all spent a good amount of time in the water. 

Grammie-goo had an important job!!!

Silas Update

This first picture of Silas with the blue shirt in the swing is him on his first birthday (5/2/14) five days before open heart surgery.  The second picture of Silas in the swing is him at 15months (8/5/14) just 3 months after open heart surgery.  

 This first picture is Silas two weeks before open heart surgery weighing 12.6 lbs at almost 12 months old.  And the second one is of Silas today (8/15/14) at 15 months old weighing 18 lbs.  

 This first picture is of Silas two weeks before open heart surgery.  He was recovering from pneumonia and at his smallest.  His body was using all it's energy to pump blood and oxygen and the rest of his body was shutting down.  We praise God for sustaining Silas' little body during his first year of life.  It's truly a miracle!
