Silas' Angry Birds Birthday Party!

This day may be on the Top 10 of my favorite days ever! Actually yes, it definitely is. This was the first birthday where Silas was in tune with what was going on, and it was awesome!


Dad made an angry birds cupcake stand for the b-day boy.





















Jack and Silas hanging his angry bird piƱata. Silas' mind was blown when he realized it was filled with candy!


The birthday boy sneaking some food. :)


 

 

The kids enjoyed coloring some angry birds pictures.





Next the kids played a real live angry birds game!

New Home.

I just realized I'm going to have to change the title of my blog, because I am no longer a seminary wife. :) Jack and I were looking at old posts on here, and he gave me the nudge to keep blogging as a way for our family to remember things.

There have been a lot of changes happening in our family. Jack graduated in December, and by the end of March we had our moving van loaded up and we were headed to Winter Haven, FL. Jack spent the next 6 months working at The Rock of Winter Haven. By the end of September we were once again loaded up as God had opened doors for Jack to be the Associate Pastor at First Baptist of Franklin, NC. Needless to say, there has been lots of boxes and unpacking happening in our lives!

Here's a little bit of what we've been up to!


Franklin is the cutest little town! This is Silas and dad waiting to roll their pumpkin down a hill at the Fall Festival!

Lois the cabbage patch doll is ready for her first Trunk or Treat.

"I'm Silas Michael Jarrett, and I'm a mountain boy!"

Jonah and the Big Fish at Trunk or Treat at First Baptist!


Lois and dad hanging in the Walmart parking lot. One of the things I love about Franklin is how close we are to everything! Seriously, we are 5 minutes from everything! Amazing! This is Lois in her favorite spot, on top of dad's shoulders.


Silas & Lois have become quite at home in the nursery thanks to Ms. Pat, Emily, and the other nursery workers who pour out mountain heaps of love on these two!


Love in Christ,
Laura
