Fire Station

Our small group took a meal to a local Fire Department last Sunday. We are doing the Fireproof study in our small group so we thought it would be appropriate to serve them a meal. ***Side Note - If you have not seen the movie Fireproof, you must see it! It is an awesome movie about marriage and the covenant we make with God and our spouse when saying "I do." Put those kiddos to bed, grab your hubby and turn the movie on....you won't regret it!!!*** Anyway, we took the kids with us to the Fire Station and they let them try on their gear and climb around on the Fire Truck. Here are some pictures of the fun we had!

Is this not the cutest Fire Fighter you've ever seen???

Just wanting to be one of the kids!

Popsicle Time!!

We gave Chapman a popsicle last night for the first time. He didn't understand what to do at first. He kept trying to bite off really big pieces. When he bit them off, he immediately spit them out and made a face like, "That was too cold for me!" Once he got the hang of it he loved it!

At first we had him sit at his table to eat it because he was making a huge mess with it dripping all over.

Then Mitch decided to put him behind the gate in the kitchen because he kept getting up and walking around the house. Which meant that popsicle juice was dripping everywhere!

This is him examining the gate.

And here is his enjoying his first popsicle in the "penalty box" as Mitch called it! : )

Easter Fun!

We had such a fun Easter Break! Prior to Easter, Chapman attended a few Easter egg hunts. He had so much fun finding eggs. I hid them for him & Ally I think 3 different times one day. They had such a good time! For Easter, we went to Murray, KY to watch my dad's baseball games and then Mitch met us in Memphis on Saturday night. We spent the night in Memphis with my parents and on Sunday we went to The Peabody Hotel to show Chapman the ducks (which he loved!) and walked around downtown. We had such a good Easter!

On another note, we are so thankful to have Easter to celebrate! Praise the Lord for our Risen Savior! For some reason around Easter, I always have these lyrics in my head & heart, "I'll never know how much it cost, to see my sin upon that cross....." How true those words are. Thank you Lord for giving your Son for Me!!!
