Haircuts and other assorted stuff

Rebekah hasn't cut her hair except when I force her to trim it for the last 3 years.  People have been after her for the last month to donate her hair, so she decided to go for it yesterday, and our friend Audra stopped by to give her a new do.  It's really cute, and some little girl will be blessed to get Bekah's beautiful thick hair.  Bekah loves the new style.  It took her all of 30 seconds to brush her hair this morning.




 Lizzie turned six this month and had two little friends over.  This is Akata, who Lizzie just adores.  I went for simple things for the party and we made hamburgers on the grill and I bought a cake.  What a huge relief that was!  Our kitchen was mostly clean before everyone got there...that never happens!

Jacob and John did the cooking.  Can you tell Spring has arrived?! John is such a Papa's boy.  He has to do everything Jacob does.  It's pretty cute most of the time.  


We grilled sweet potatoes, and oh man were they ever good!  I had to put this up here so you all can appreciate your warm weather.  I set these on the table out back, and before Jacob could get them on the grill they were frozen over!  


Had to add some random baby pictures.  This little girl has a special place in all our hearts.  She is adored by everyone of her siblings.  She's standing on her own now a little.  She has Jacob wrapped around her little finger already.  He will do anything for Mary Rose :)



 Got these when I was home in February.  Those boys are just too cute!  They are darling Rachel.  Samuel reminds me so much of Simi.  They act a lot alike! Can't wait for them all to get together when we come home next time!
