More Puppy Pictures

Our puppies are growing fast!  I feel like a new mom again taking pictures at every little knew developement of our puppies. (Of course the cutest poses or little antics they do that would be the greatest pictures...I never seem to have the camera with me.)  Here are a few more new pictures of our cuties.  They are now 4 weeks old and slowly weaning from Sadie.  They are starting to play with one another.  Grant, I, and the boys love to go out after dinner and spend time playing with them and simply watching them. It's going to be hard to let them all go in 4 more weeks.  :)

Puppies...

 
This is a fun season with PUPPIES!  We have eight cute little pups.  They are just beginning to walk. Needless to say our boys are having the time of their life with these little guys...(and so are we.) :)

August...2012...Where did it go?



 I let Michael know that his jacket was inside out AND upside down and his reply..."I like it this way sometimes."

Isaac turned 6 years old!

New BMX bike and helmet.
 
Beach trip
 
Isaac flying a kite.
 
Zech digging a big hole...we soon had a small pond.


Flying the kite...
 
 
Michael enjoying the sand!
Michael and I enjoying building sandcastles.
 
 
Tide pools!  The boys made a small aquarium with the dumptruck.  They collected all kinds of sea creatures! (We "dumped" it all back when we were done.)
 
 
Beautiful evening sun.
 
 
Zechariah, Isaac, Michael, and Grant.
 
 
When we arrived home from our trip our dog, Sadie had begun to have her puppies!! (This is them now at 2 weeks old.)






 
We are undecided if we will keep any of these...it's hard not too. The "father" is one of the neighborhood dogs. I believe he is a boxer and lab mix. :) Our original plan was to breed Sadie to another German Shepherd (that's what she is).  We'll see....
 
We are experiencing the Lord's faithfulness in many changes in this season of life...Grandpa Charlie's passing away, growing and maturing boys, and growing in the grace of what Jesus Christ has accomplished for us. 
 
Psalm 103:2-5
"Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget none of His benefits
Who pardons all your iniquities,
who heals all your diseases,
 who redeems your life from the pit,
who crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion
who satisfies your years with good things,
 so that your youth is renewed like the eagle."
