Memorial Day Weekend!

Jaaf was able to get some time off, so we had a great 4 day weekend!!! We wanted to have lots of fun with the boys, so we started it off with some putt-putt! The boys were so cute carrying their big golf clubs! They were both very determined and wanted to finish every hole! Whenever it was my turn to putt, I would hit the ball, and every time one of my boys would grab the ball and hand it to me! It was so precious, even though they were picking up my ball and not allowing it to go into the hole, they thought they were helping me! I love how my boys take good care of me!There was one time when I was struggling and just couldn't get the ball in, Jaxson went and picked up my ball and put it one inch away from the hole and said, "There you go mom, you can do it!" The boys had a great time with their dad. Jaaf worked with Jaxson and how to hold the club, he was really getting the hang of it by the end. The next day we decided to go to this new play house. It has a huge indoor playground, and a large area to do fun arts and crafts! The boys both painted a snake, ( they are really into snakes right now!) and they painted a sea turtle! On Sunday we went to church, and then we went to a fun BBQ at our friends house! All of the kiddos had a great time running around chasing each other, playing on the slip-n-slide, and jumping on the trampoline! Jaxson just loves to do the slip-n-slide! Every time he would run and slide on it he would get this cute little giddy laugh while he was sliding! I just love that excitement! When we had to go, Missy told Jaxson that he could come back anytime to play. When we got in the car Jaxson said to me, "Mom, she said we could come back anytime!" He was already ready to go back! On Memorial day Honey and Pal took the boys to Bass Pro Shops and Jaaf and I went on a fun lunch date and did some shopping! After that we went back to Honey and Pals to cookout some burgers!! It was a great fun weekend! I love my sweet family and love every minute we get to spend together! We also love the sweet fellowship of our friends!

Sweet Brothers!
"For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom his whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen."
Gal 3:14-21
