Zach in NYC...

Happy Easter!!!

Aren't they just the cutest family? You can almost see Misty's baby bump in this shot... If I had got one of her standing up, you would really be able to see it. So notice the shot of Jake... I had to snap this when he wasn't looking. He such a cutie, but he always makes faces when I try to get a picture of him. The bottom one of Gid, he has stuffed the entire thing of fruit chews in his mouth. What are we going to do with that boy? He looks pretty dang cute in his argyle tho'.

Wagon Ride Anyone?

Grandpa took Gideon out for his first official wagon ride on Saturday. As you can see, Bear was very excited to see him. I'm pretty sure she would have liked to climb in the wagon with him. We are still looking for a nice home for Bear. Takers anyone?

You can see Gideon was sporting his hat to combat the ferocious wind. He loved the ride so much. He was singing and rocking. It was so cute. Mommy, Grandpa Richardson and I had a great time also. Saturday ended up being a lovely day. While we were out for our walk, Jacob, Alexander and a couple of their friends went skate boarding. Alex attempted a nine stair and biffed it on the landing... didn't seem to care though, he is so ready to go again and reattempt it. Those boys have a great time together and I am so thankful.

Such a sweet face...

Grandma is missing her sweet boy. I had to result to looking at his pictures... lucky for me I have a bunch. I think this one is especially sweet. I guess I better get used to not having him around all the time. I have been both spoiled and blessed.

Yeah for Ravioli...

So Gideon seriously loves Ravioli

As you can see he takes his eating seriously too...

I'm not sure what this is all about...

say cheese....
How could you not smile when you see this???

Beautiful Words Which Inspire...

As most of you know I love music... I love the sound, I love how it makes me feel, I love how it makes me happy and takes me places, I love how it can inspire me to be a better me. I am so thankful for the gift of song in my life. Here are the words to a beautiful song my Young Women's Choir sang for New Beginnings. Maybe you've heard it, if not, I hope you love the words as much as I do.

I Will Stand
I'm here for a purpose with differences to make
In the final season, important steps to take
but I can not succeed here if my footsteps are not planned
I think it's time for me to take a stand.
I will stand for everything good
I will stand where prophets once stood
I will stand in my youth, a witness for truth
I have found, on holy ground, I will stand

I'm standing as a witness for all the truths I know
In all times and in all of the places that I go
Life has many choices and voices that divide
So I'll be standing on the Saviors side
I will stand where others may fall
I will stand and hold my head tall
I will stand in my youth, a witness for truth
I have found, on holy ground, I will stand

I will stand all of my days
I will stand and follow his ways
I will stand in my youth
A witness for truth
I have found, on holy ground, I will stand

I will have to find out who wrote this wonderful song for you and add it later. I wrote the words from memory. They seem to be stamped in my brain right now. I'm pretty sure it's because I need to work on them. I love you all and hope you have a lovely day!

ps... I am only up at this crazy hour because I passed out last night at 6 O'clock.

Alexander Rockin' Out...

I'll put up some new shots later. This was the best one I got last night. He has so much dang fun with his guitar tho'. He says, "All the chicks dig him". Yup, that's our boy!

Naughty Little Drummer Boy...

This is a progression...

Well shucks... I couldn't get the other two to load... pretty much more of the same only he was walking and drumming... pretty much my walls and anything else he could pound... made me laugh... makes it kinda difficult to discipline.

Crazy Winter Weather
