Birthday cake! :)

Mom made this cute cake for a little boy at church...



Paul Ryan Listening Session in Waterford

on April 27th, Nathan and I had the opportunity
to go with the academy to hear Paul Ryan promote his
Health Care Reform Plan (Path for Prosperity) in 
Waterford. It was my first time seeing/hearing
Paul Ryan in person....COOL! :) 

about 90% of the people there were senior citizens...
some were for Ryan's plan, others adamantly against it. :-/ 
 some of our group....
we were trying to spread out and look inconspicuous,
but we arrived a little later than we wanted to, so there 
wasn't much room to intersperse ourselves among the masses...
 a non-local reporter doing an interview....
CONGRESSMAN PAUL RYAN!!! :) 
 He did a great job presenting his plan....
 Congressman Ryan had a neat pie chart representing 
the percentages of how much of our debt is owned by other 
countries, China being in the lead, of course... :-/ 

 Q & A time....
some of the folks asking questions were not very nice...
they think that they won't get any of their retirement 
$ and healthcare, when in reality, Ryan's plan 
does not effect people 55 and older.
Ryan's plan is truly genius! :) 
 love this shot.... :) 
 "the 'Path to Prosperity' prevents spending and taxes 
from rising steadily to unprecedented levels, 
as they are currently projected to do." 
 taking notes for a rebuttal.... ;) 
 the press...

Resurrection Sunday!

On Resurrection Sunday, we went to my Uncle's house 
in Sullivan to celebrate with my Dad's family :) 
we got some four-wheeler rides! 





Hannah and Maggy
 Maggy got a French poodle hair cut. I think it is SO cute! 

 Daniel was excited that he finally learned how 
to hold Maggy the right way! 

Daniel and Jon had an egg hunt....
it was so cute to see them scurrying around the house
looking for eggs! :) 


 the view from the loft...I love their house! :) 

My cousin and her husband just got a puppy! 
Her name is Alberta. It was so cute to see her 
and Maggy playing outside together. Maggy is about 
as big as she is going to grow, but Albie is only a couple 
of months old....she is going to be a big dog... :) 





very tired after a long day... ;) 

More posts coming soon! :) 






Baptism

Hello all! Sorry it has been SO long since my last post.....
we have been insanely busy around here 
the last couple of weeks. 
Anyway, here are some posts dating back to 4 weeks ago! ;) 

Mr. and Mrs. Pie, D'Lacey and Britan were baptized last month! :) 
testimonies.....
They are always a blessing to hear! I love to hear how 
God has changed one's life, and to  
see people surrendered to HIS will! :)
