My monkeys.
Daddy trying to steal Emy's peaches.
We had the BEST time! Luke's first zoo visit. There aren't many pictures of him b/c he got so tired--and a little bit irritable. It was a LONG walk (I think there are 5 miles of walking trails at the zoo). We rented a stroller for Luke & Emy (thank goodness).
If you are ever near Asheboro, NC--please visit our zoo--it is GREAT!! I would recommend it.

I LOVE THIS AND THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE.
BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN SISTER
by Maya Angelou
A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
that a man should have to seek Him first to find her.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean livin',
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.
When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

We've been busy around here. . .
Yep, we did it again!
BEFORE
AFTER
Miss Sassy LOVES her new do.
This was gymnastics yesterday (before the haircut)
She made it to "home"
Ta-da!
A bunch of little monkeys hanging on a bar. Guess which one is mine?!
In line for a drink of water.
Skating on the carport.
Luke got a haircut too.
Having fun
Don't worry--this thing doesn't go too fast--but we've got helmets they are going to wear EVERY time they sit on this thing.
Emy was very patient with Luke's driving skills, I wonder if it's because she ALWAYS had her hands on the handlebars....HA!!
