What we do...

Elias FINALLY learned how to hold up just two fingers instead of all five when telling us his age!

Me cuddling in the car with my little "girl" NiNi.

Cutting fire wood became a family event today. We all came out to watch Daddy cut up some wood for our wood stove.

Then we went on an adventure and toured the farm. We got to see the river for the first time. It is beautiful. Looking forward to getting a closer look when the snow melts.

Then we came in and warmed up next to the wood stove.

Nice and toasty warm!

Birthday at the Farm

Blowing out the candles was fun when there is powder sugar sprinkled on top of brownies!

Reading stories all cuddled up with Grandma Cathy in her bed. Elias was fast asleep before the book was over. Elias and Grandpa Don going to put some mail in the mailbox.

Cheesy Kiddo!

Elias and Grandpa saying good bye.

Thanks for the great time! Love you much and miss you already!

Hugs and mushy kisses!

QSS Retreat at Inspiration Point

Christine and I got to get away for the weekend while our kids were well taken care of!

I took the mitten making class! They are so easy to make! Thank you Alison!

Then I worked on a baby girl quilt. I finished it...after some ripping of seams!

We listened to music...VERY quietly. (Some lady there was very anti-music.)

And the weekend was filled with the reminder of how Great our God is!

Isaiah 40:31

Hope

It was a WONDERFUL weekend!

being creative

On a cold morning in March, two little boys spending a few months in a farm house, decided to use their imaginations God gave them and do something creative and fun. The found out that if you collapse one side of the kid table it magically becomes a slide! And that is only the continuation of their imaginations....the adventures will forever continue!

Happy Birthday Dad!

We made a cake on Monday morning for Joel's birthday. The boys closed the door to the kitchen and told daddy "we aren't baking anything in here". And then when he saw the cake later on Corbin told him it was a window. :)
We had Grandpa George, Grandma Janice, Betty and Leonard over to celebrate!

Took a few fun family pictures!

And then blew out the candles!

Happy Birthday Joel!!!

Mud and (no) Mail

Who....

...stole the cookie from the cookie jar?

Eli stole the cookie from the cookie jar.

Who me?

Yes you!

Couldn't be!

Then who?

Our "New" (temporary) Home

We are still getting used to the place. Please pray that the boys start to sleep better. All the changes have really been messing with them. We look forward to relaxing and just spending time as a family and time with God. And we look forward to having visitors! :)

Our New Adventure

Some of you know, some don't. So I am going to share a little about what has been going on in the Davis home over the past few months.

Emily has been dealing with a lot of anxiety and depression. After many med changes we feel like we may have found the right combination to help, but do to the severity of it, we have decided to take a leave of absence from the church for 10 weeks. We are hoping this time will be a time for us to rejuvenate and for Emily to recover.

We are moving to the farm Joel grew up at. It will be an adventure for us...living in the country at the "farm". We are very excited and feel so blessed to have a wonderful church family and community that is embracing us in prayer and allowing us this time to heal.

We ask for your prayers as Emily continues meeting with her doctors and counselor on a regular basis. Pray for healing for Emily and for a refreshing of our souls over the next 10 weeks.

Thank you so much!

DONE!!!!

Finally, I got it quilted!!!

PLAYdough

I made a new batch of playdough for the boys....but I didn't have any cream of tarter....so they only got to play with it once and then it went in the garbage!

Cookies

Joel made cookies with the boys.
Let them frost and sprinkle them.

They licked them....

and licked some more!!!

Corbin the Magician!
