Our Angel - Jeremiah

Our pondering Micah (in green)

me, Hannah, Mariah, Alayah, and Grandma Nina at the school Christmas musical

Micah was a shepherd who helped narrate the Sunday school Christmas program

Jeremiah was a "child" who had an acting and speaking part.

Hannah was a perfect angel who knew all the words and motions

Mariah and Alayah were angels as well; they knew alot of the words and motions. They chose to sing at home and simply enjoy watching the congregation and the other angels during the program:) At one point, Alayah did scratch her head, where the halo was, and promptly grabbed it and started to "fling" it across the church. Thanks to Mrs. Bigloo, her teacher, the halo was caught and put on Alayah's head quicker then the blink of an eye!

Micah's 8th Birthday!!

My baby boy is 8 years old....Happy Birthday Micah Bean!!! Here are some pictures of his "friends" party and also his family party.

Micah's Swamp Cafe

The "unplanned" activity - football

Obstacle Course

He's such a goofball. He blew out his candles once, but only 4 of them, so re-lit them and we had to sing all over again. I wish you could have seen him do it and most importantly heard him tell us to "start the song over". It was SO funny!

Micah and his buddies

The following are from the night of his birthday. Both Papa Tata and Grammie AND Papa Earle and Grandma Nina came. We had a great time and laughed alot....of course!

His school birthday treat

Micah and Mr. Red Throat (the frog)

Dear Samantha......

Micah's 2nd grade class has been practicing writing letters; the format, etc.. His teacher had a new niece that was born yesterday. Mrs. Picker asked the kids to write her niece, Samantha, a letter with advice for the following areas: having a solid Christian life, doing well in school, and getting along with family. Here is Micah's letter: (It was even on stationary)

Dear Samantha,
to grow stronger in your faith, tell people about God. One thing you can do to do well in school is do your best work. One piece of advice about family is they will always care for you.
from,
Micah

Precious for sure!!

School Fall Fest

Jeremiah ran his first 5K in 27:11!!! Rob was his running partner and was pleasantly surprised at Jeremiah's endurance - way to go!! The whole family had a great time; bouncy house, bouncy obstacle course, face painting, and the cake walk - lots of fun!
