Pictures of the kids

After a couple of political blogs I decided it was time for more kid pictures along with a thought for the week. We have been busy with life and not doing much fun and exciting but hopefully that will change this week as the kids are out of school for Spring Break. Lori has gotten the camera out and has taken some fun pictures of the kids so those are below. Lori took Ryan out to the back yard and she took pictures of him while he played with bubbles.

This one is Ryan playing on the trampoline.

Ryan showing a little bit of attitude.

Lori spent some time at Old Navy recently and got the kids some new clothes for Spring. They looked so good in their new clothes that we had to take a picture of them before going to church.

Yesterday Jared lost another tooth. He is happy to show-off his new hole in his mouth. He lost the tooth on the left side yesterday.

Brett showing us his great smile.

Now for a thought for the day.

LIFE IS ONE BIG MUDDLE. Sometimes you have to muddle more, sometimes you have to muddle less, but for all of us "muddling through" is the natural state of things. Luckily, while we muddle, we can surround ourselves with things we cherish. We can muddle nobly, happily and with a sense of purpose. We can choose to love and allow ourselves to be loved as we muddle. Ultimately, if you want it to be and let it be, it’s a beautiful muddle indeed. - Hugh Hewitt
