Josiah's 4th Birthday

"Now Josiah also took away all the shrines of the high places that [were] in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke the LORD to anger; and he did to them according to all the deeds he had done in Bethel."

2 Kings 23:19

We celebrated Josiah's 4th birthday Thursday night with Paw-paw and Na-naw.  Josiah's dinner request was "tacos and cornbread" but we had enchiladas and salsa too!

Paw-paw reading to Seth and Josiah.

They love having books read to them and whenever Paw-paw comes over you'll find him on the couch reading to someone! :)

After dinner and clean up we opened Josiah's gifts (let's just say he was impatient and wanted to open them as soon as he saw them! :).

A candy cane!!!  (He had eaten all the candy around his plate before dinner)

After all of our individual presents he went to the one from Aunt Stacey, Uncle Mike, Kaitlyn, Sarah, and Rachel that arrived...

...via mail!

This was his adorable present from them!

(And it is true!)

Na-naw and Paw-paw bought him a gun that shot out foam discs.  The boys were entertained for the rest of the night!

Lexi reading his card.

(Lexi has started her own card-making with a program called Print Shop and is doing really well - she does so good with all her catchy phrases and designs!)

Smilin' for the camera!

Daddy trying to shoot me with one of the discs.

He was actually trying to get me to be able to catch the flying objects on the camera but I couldn't.  I do love how all their faces turned out in the picture...they're all so focused and their eyes are huge!

Josiah put the sprinkles on his funfetti cake.  Anyone want to guess what corner was his?

4 candles for the birthday boy!

The birthday boy and his cake!

Blowing out his candles.  I love everyone's face! :)

(Thanks, Paw-paw for taking the picture of all 8 of us!)

Anyways, happy birthday, Josiah!  He turned four the Friday we were at Disney World.  Speaking of Disney World...I'm not done posting yet!!  The next post will be on Tuesday at Disney World and I have 4-5 days left!  Hopefully I'll finish before Thanksgiving.

Just to update you a little bit about what's been happening here:  Today we had our Bread Becker Pick-Up at our house for the first time in the morning (10-12).  (We normally have it in the evening) We had the biggest order for our entire history of being a Bread Becker Coordinator totalling around $2,600 altogether!  We met a few new people, which is always fun, and also got to see some friends from church and from previous pick-ups.  Our power went out around 11:30 during the pick-up and didn't turn on until 2 P.M because of the torrential rains that we've had continously the past 2 days.

We all have colds among us, so we had to cancel some plans with some friends that were going to come over tonight.  :-(  Thankfully, we are so much better than we were yesterday!

So, there's an update for you all on how we are!

All for Jesus,

Kimber :)
