Field Trips

We've taken a few field trips recently and wanted to share our memories with you. This first one was of a train ride we took with our local homeschool group. We had tons of fun, and will probably do it again. Here are the boys with some of their best friends, Jacob and Gunnar. We all rode together which made it all the more fun!

Here's waiting for the train to arrive...

And waiting for the train to start rolling...

We have also gotten to go to the beautiful Schermerhorn Symphony Center recently for a homeschool program, called "Brass Bash," where the boys (and a thousand other kids) got to learn all about the brass instruments and their unique job in the orchestra. It was a lot of fun! Here are Elijah and Isaac with their friend Jacob.

After the concert we walked across the pedestrian bridge right there beside the symphony center.

Elijah's Seven Already?!?!

Elijah turned 7 back in October. 7 years! It is really amazing how fast time goes. That is such a cliche to say that, but it is so true.

Here is Elijah getting ready to eat his birthday waffles (his request).
Clone wars! Thanks Grand K!

Here is Elijah's cake he requested, thanks to Publix. Maybe I need to practice making birthday cakes!

One of the few games we played. I'm not sure what this one was called, but while they were blindfolded, they took turns sticking funny faces onto pumpkins. It turned out very cute!

We had a great time at our party, even though we missed you, Jake, Addie, Jessica, Scott, and Nana and D-dah! Wasn't the same without you.

We are so thankful to the Lord for our precious Elijah. Our first born, one who is very tender and sweet, and an encourager. Our prayer every day is that he (along with his brothers) will know the grace of God in his heart, and turn to Christ as his Savior. We love you Elijah!
