Piston's Game and Valentine's with daddy!

We celebrated Valentine's day a little early this year. Aaron is out of town all week so we exchanged gifts and went out to dinner with the kids on Sunday. Aaron got Mea the movie Narnia and I got the kids all a disney cup. They loved everything. I got Aaron some R.S.V.P. by Kenneth Cole. He got me some valentine's mugs from Starbucks(I collect mugs) and a wedding band because I lost mine a few years ago. The kids loved going to Chili's.

Before...
After!! We actually had two and they both looked this way when we were done!!


Brian, Billie, Uncle Buzz and I all went to the Detroit Piston's game on Tuesday night! We had a blast! We were 13 rows from the court.(including the floor seats!) The food was yummy and the game was so much fun. We were yelling and cheering and jumping up and down. The piston's led the whole game but then in the 4th started losing. But in the last few minute's Chauncey Billups was on fire and the Piston's won!!








Final Score: Pistons 94-Hawks 90!!

WHO'S GOING TO A PISTON'S GAME...?

I AM!!

GO PISTON'S!

Picture's to come asap!!

I finally got my lefty!!!

I have been wanting one of the boys to be left handed. I tried with Charlie and Benny but they just refused and went right.(Who do I think I am!!) So, with James I just didn't do anything and HE'S a LEFTY!! I love to watch him throw the ball and shoot hoops. He looks like Aaron!!

My crazy kids!!

Jordy singin' over the holiday's....we miss you!

‘Twas I that shed the sacred blood;

I nailed him to the tree;

I crucified the Christ of God;

I joined the mockery.

Of all that shouting multitude

I feel that I am one;

And in that din of voices rude

I recognize my own.

Around the cross the throng I see,

Mocking the Sufferer’s groan;

Yet still my voice is seems to be,

As if I mocked alone.

New Blog

If you haven't heard yet, there is a new blog out today!! It's probably going to be mine and Aaron's favorite blog and one we visit quite often!! CJ has finally started a blog!! (CJ Mahaney for those of you who don't know who I'm talking about) Go to... www.sovereigngraceministries.com/blog
"CJ Mahaney's View from the Cheap Seats & Other Stuff"---I PROMISE YOU WON'T DISSATISFIED but will instead walk away by the grace of God with more passion for the savior who sent his only son to live in our place and to die a death that we deserved!! GO NOW AND GO OFTEN!!

New Computer

A friend of ours just gave me a computer so now I don't have to wait until Aaron gets home from work anymore to get on a computer. Hopefully I'll blog more now that I have my own and know how to use it!! Pictures and video's to come!! Love you all and so thankful for all of you!!

Sleep Over

We had Savanna spend the night tonight. The kids played and played and then all crashed within 5 minutes of putting them to bed! They were tired I guess!

The Holiday Season!!!

We started the Christmas Season decorating the house and getting a tree. To Jimmy's delight he now had fun little ornaments to break and see how many he could hide on me! He even pulled the tree over on himself an hour before our care group leaders Christmas party!

We are so thankful for the friendships God has given to us!
Mea had a Christmas Tea Party with some of her friends. They decorated cookies and played with their favorite friend...Rachy Bauers! Charlie was a little sad he couldn't be in the tea party so Mea dressed him up like a girl!

Then the fun began when all the family and friends arrived for Christmas! We had a blast and miss you all so much! Thanks for coming here to be with us, we are so grateful for everyone of you. Here we are doing one of our favorite family traditions--Singing all together while uncle Buzz and Uncle Lyle play the guitar.
The kids got SO many presents. They loved opening them and playing with them.

Christmas Day dinner at the Bauers

We celebrated the New Year with the Stewarts.
And finally the new year began with the flu and sinus infections!

Update coming soon...

We were so blessed to have lots of family and some friends join us for a week over the holidays. To say we had a blast and walked away more grateful to God would simply be an understatement. We LOVE you all and miss you so much and can't wait to see you at the wedding.

We are more aware of God's goodness in our lives and specifically we are overwhelmed by His goodness in the form our local church. We feel extremely undeserving for all of you and extremely grateful. Thanks for loving us, supporting us and for making this the dearest place on earth.

On a different note...Aaron and I are both sick and have been for a few days. I woke up today with not only a cold but also the FLU! So, updates with picture's will be coming when I get better. I love you all and count it a joy to serve the savior alongside you--whether near or far!

HAPPY 2008!!

Love, Sara
