Happy 7th Birthday....
Gabe had a small birthday party with just a couple friends.  I took them bowling, which was really fun to watch and then out to eat at Wendy's.  They had a great and silly time.  He told me that this was the perfect kind of birthday for him. 

He also open presents with Grandpa and Grandma.  I also made him Rice Pudding, which is his favorite.  It was a good day and he got a lot of Lego's in the end, which keeps him busy.

Desk Project.....

I found this desk a while ago at a garage sale for $5.  We used it for a computer desk for a while, but then I decided Anna needed a desk in her room.  So we went to work painting it and it turned out really good.  She had fun painting it and the boys even helped a bit.

When you come to God in prayer you come to your Father. He wants you to come as a child who is loved, who is accepted, who is cared for, and who is secure. He wants you to come in openness, in confidence, in truthfulness. He waits to hear your heart, and to share His heart with you.
Through prayer you can gather the riches of heaven and bring them down to earth...
You can delight in the beauty of heaven and carry it in your heart...
You can enjoy the fellowship of heaven and walk in it throughout the day.
- Devotional excerpt by Roy Lessin

Playing and Building.....

 The days have been nice and warm here in Nebraska.  The kids have been playing outside and even building with legos on the front porch.  Noah wanted me to take a picture of his creation.  He even has his little flower pot in the back of his truck.  He has marigolds growing in his pot

We also planted a bunch of other plants about a week and a half ago.  We are looking forward to seeing a few more seeds sprout.  I just love spring!
