We had a youth event where the kids were to bring their instruments, wear their PJs and Jam in their Jammies. It was a ton of fun. Kevin and I were blown away by the response. We had 25 youth who were excited about jammin' show up. We discovered that we have a ton of gifted youth kids, now we have just got encourage them to use their gifts in serving the Lord!

Jammin in Jammies

Dancing
This was hilarious! Ellie and LJ were going at it, they looked like they were at a club having a good time!
Thanksgiving Day!
PB with no "J" Creation
Audrey was hungry the other day, so she made her own sandwich. It took her a while (only because everyother dip of the knife went in her mouth). She has never been more willing to finish her sandwich then the day she made her own! She sure is growing up! Oh, by the way, as Audrey would say, "I no like jam, I girl!"

Audrey's New Dresses
Hanging Out
Here is a typical momment at our house...plus, the messiness is just about right. LJ is running around with his "tail" on talking about a lion that's going to get him (it's his and Audrey's new game)and Audrey is doing her own thing, but checking in on Josiah like a little mom. And I just woke up and am thankful that I didn't come out in my PJs!!

The RC Car
One of our favorite things to do lately is go to the park and drive/chase Kevin's RC car around. He just got the needed piece for his battery operated one which came in perfect time since he just ran out of gas for the gas powered one (I think it's also need of repair right now as well). The kids really enjoy watching, driving and chasing it. LJ loves to retrieve it as well. It's about as big as him. All I do is sit and read a book and hold Josiah. It's a good time for all.
Our house - Living Space
This is the main, common area. It's kind of in an "L" shape. Kitchen and living room extend across the front of the house. Mom you would appreciate the low kitchen sink, designed for shorter Japanese women. Look at how high the cabinets are, though, no wonder they sell step-stools at almost any store. They are actually higher, because most people don't own and American style stove and they just cook stir fry over burners. So the high cabinets are to prevent fires...go figure! I'm thankful for the oven...that means we can still eat casseroles and cookies!! If you look down the hall like area, the first door on the right is the toilet room, the second one is the bathroom/laundry area, the room in the very back to the right is the "back room" where the TV is at and currently where Josiah sleeps. The first door on the left is Audrey and LJ's room (I would share pics but it's just a room with 3 beds-crib, toddler bed and bunk bed, nothing else) and the room in the back to the left is Kevin and my room.
