I came upstairs to "Mama I fixing Baybay's boo boo. I need a bandaid."
Check out the tools of choice (hammer, pliers and saw)
I have come to these conclusions:
1- I guess Bailey has a broke leg.
2- Maybe we have a career in Vet Medicine or Orthopedic Surgery.
3- I don't want Jackson to be my Doctor.
4- The gun in the background....let's hope the surgery works Bailey or you are a goner girl
5 -Notice Harley is nowhere to be found!

VBS
Jackson ready for VBS Day at church with the shirt he made! I actually co-taught his class! We had 14 kids his age (whew they wore me out!) But they were all lots of fun!
The girls and boys had a contest this week at VBS to see who could raise more money (the money is going toward buying bookbags and supplies in our school district for those that can't afford it). And what was better was if the boys won - Josie got a pie in the face and if the girls won - Brad got the pie! Well the girls pulled through and here is Brad getting his pie! But the great thing is that these kids raised over $500 for bookbags!
The other great thing about VBS is the we had 27 kids accept Jesus into their hearts and become saved! This is the largest group ever from what I am told! How wonderful for these kids!
We had this train and the Inflatables out again today after church.
The Train
Matthew - not quite sure about this VBS thing! :)

Who's your hero??
Ours is Daddy!
The base makes these sweet Daddy Hero Dolls for the kids, so when Daddy deploys it may not be AS hard! I think they are just the cutest things!
I love how Matthew is chewing on David's head here! Can we say teething baby!

Someone's been sleeping in my bed
and here he is!
Jackson crawls into my bed some mornings about 6 am before Matthew decides to wake at 6:15. Why do my kids not sleep in?? Jackson actually fell back asleep here which is rare!

I finally broke down & pulled out the ball pit!
Not that it isn't a great toy, but oh the balls I knew I would be picking up. Surprisingly though - Jackson is constantly picking them up....guess him being a little older helps!
Here is Jackson when he got it, from Uncie B and Aunt C, on his 1st Birthday. Oh yes - you too will one day have a baby and I will remember all of the gifts you have given! :)

David's mom, her sister, and 2 of her daughters came out for a visit this past weekend. I really enjoyed the company and the boys loved the extra attention!
