New Deck

God provided the funds to be able to build a deck in our backyard.

Michael designed and built it, including the cool bench.  Jenny holds a screw in her mouth too.

We celebrated by having all of Jonathan's family out, a first for us.

 Fajitas seemed like a good idea.

Sarah and David

We managed to seat 25 people comfortably plus had several tables out.

Nathan and Janna

Grandma and Grandpa have the shades going :)

Anna and Stephen

Jenny-isms:

Jenny likes her newly forward-facing car seat.  I reached my hands back to hold hers while I was driving and she asked to "bay" (pray).
Whenever I do pray, she always say "Mama, shhh!"

She is learning her colors.  Her favorite to say is "lellow"
For drink she says "nose", which sounds more like "no?"
Horses says "mee-mee"
Rhino is "rhi-rhi"
Blankie is "may-may"
She also said "mo wa-wa pees" which definitely got her a drink!
