Jason has been talking about building a pond in our backyard for awhile. He came up with a plan and finally started it! we are all so excited to see it finished!

Peyton and Jayden had a great time digging in the dirt and finding worms.


and then took time out for four wheeling!

Peyton’s homework was to make a Valentine box for his upcoming party at school. when I went to the store to buy stickers and get ideas for his box I found out you can buy premade boxes for kids to decorate. I was SO CLOSE to buying one that looked like a car or a dinosaur but when it came down to it I really wanted Peyton to make it the way HE wanted to. I mean how many more years is he going to do this?? so I went to the $ store and bought red wrapping paper and lots of Valentine stickers….
the boys had such a good time decorating their boxes! I let Jayden make one too…. it’s only fair!



they decided they wanted it to look like a mailbox, so we put flags them. You can’t really see Jayden’s flag but he insisted his have Halloween paper on it!

‘I had a dream about Jesus. Me and Daddy went to the park and I saw the cross Jesus died on and I looked in there, where Jesus died, and he was still alive when I looked in there. It was a very happy dream.’
Peyton, age 6
‘Thank you God, for Jesus, our family, our friends, and all of the different people’
Jayden, age 4

Peyton has been wiggling his top tooth for what seems like forever, but FINALLY he pulled it out and when he did it went down his throat…. but somehow he saved it! the whole thing was so funny! good job Peyton!

a few days later he pulled the other front tooth! I love his toothless grin!

even though they have a playroom,
their new place to drag their toys
is into Jayden’s big boy room.
today it was dinner for their stuffed animals
and ‘work’ for Peyton.
