Sleeping Jaren

CAUTION: PLAYING TOO HARD WILL MAKE YOU SLEEPY!





Just thought these were so cute. He didn't fuss or give a warning. everything got quiet and I checked on him and found him sleeping.

Jaren update

Jaren is now 4 months old and doing so many things. He loves his rattles and now Great Grandma got him an exersaucer that has animals and toys for him to play with. He rolls over.
Here are a couple of pictures.

Camp photos

Here are some pictures from Camp. Thanking God for the wonderful services and the victories around the alter. God's presence was so real and close. Rev. England and Rev. David Mayley were the evangelists and Rev. Cary and Catrina Thornton were the Song and Youth envangelists.
We also had a change in leadership on the District. Rev Dan and Carole Brown on left was the D.S. and now Rev. Bryon and Annie Myers are the D.S. Praying for them as they make the adjustments on both sides.

Sweet little Jaren almost 4 months in this picture although he is 4 months now.

Todd Hanson and Jaren really enjoyed each other. They were so cute "talking" to one another.

Lilyan Bird is 1 year old and such a doll. Most always a smiling face

Sunday afternoon we were visiting with Brad and Katie and Lilyan climbed up on the bed and laid next to Jaren.

Update

Hi all, just an update on what has been going on in our busy life. Since I last posted we have been to Clinton Camp, Remus Camp in MI and are currently on vacation in MI. Jaren is now almost 15 weeks old and is so the joy of our lives. He laughs so cute now and smiles so much. He is of course growing by leaps and bounds. I will try to get pictures up in the next post. Hope all is well with you.

Caught in the act

At 12:30pm today Dan looked outside and saw a deer eating our neighbors apples. Usually this same deer comes in the evening but today she was just too hungry to wait.

Then this is what she did when I turned my camera to video
