An Easter Craft

 

An Easter Craft

Above is a little craft I helped Anson make for Palm Sunday/Easter. It consists of a construction paper cross glued to a popsicle stick and some silk flowers/greenery stuck into a base of Homemade play dough, which was then allowed to harden. He had a great time making it. I didn't realize how much of a great time until yesterday after supper. Lance and I were in the kitchen and Anson was upstairs being rather quiet. I came up later to find little snips of construction paper everywhere (he loves his safety scissors), more silk flowers strewn everywhere, and his original craft sitting down for him to model as he tried to create his own!!! Kids are such fun!

Bradley Spitler

Lance's cousin, Bradley, went home to be with the Lord yesterday morning. Please pray for the family. Bradley left a wife and three young boys, from 12 down to 4.

Happy Birthday, Daddy!

 

Happy Birthday, Daddy!

I'm only a week late!!! It was last Thursday (2/28). Anyway, we had a little family get together and all enjoyed a meal and a home-made ice cream cake! Anson gets excited about either cake OR ice cream, but especially cake!!

A couple weeks ago, we were looking through a picture book and there was a picture of a cake in there with some candy flowers on it and he asked me if I would make him one. So I did while he was napping, and you should have seen how excited he was when he got up and saw it!! Doesn't take much to make little ones happy!!
