~In the fall of 1992 I met a young lady named Kelly on the campus of God's Bible School. When we met neither Kelly nor I had any way of knowing that we would end up being best friends for the next 3 years, and room mates for 2 of those years. (At the end of those 3 years, we both got married and so our husbands became our "best friends" and our "roommates". =). A few weeks ago I was standing and chatting with Kelly and one of her boys came by with a cute hat on. I asked Kelly where I could get one of those hats and she told me that she had made that hat. You see I was fixin' to take our children to JCPenny's and I wanted a hat like that for Elijah. Well, much to my delight Kelly told me that she would loan Noah and Elijah the matching outfits that she had made for her boys so that they could wear them for their pictures. Thank you, Kelly, for loaning me these precious outfits! I'm THRILLED with how these pictures turned out, and I Thank the Lord for His help!~
~This was an un-posed picture that I saw and asked the photographer to snap. It was supposed to be a picture of Sarah and her violin and Elijah walked up and was watching her. I love it that one of Elijah's socks is falling down.~
~Elijah reading a 'tory~
~Kimberly and Sarah and their violins~
~Sisters~
~Brothers~
~We took in these 2 old suitcases to JCP to use with the boys pictures. Elijah had been sitting on the stool but after the photographer had repeatedly said "Boo" to Elijah...Elijah got off of the stool and walked up and said "boo" to the photographer then backed up to sit down on the stool and totally missed it and landed on the floor and that is when the photographer snapped this picture.~
~All packed up with no where to go.~
~Quite the "case" sitting on a suitcase. =)~
~Kimberly who will turn 12 this month. Happy Birthday!~
~Sarah who turned 9 in December. Happy Belated Birthday.~
~Noah and Kimberly share a birthday so he will soon turn 6. Happy Birthday!~
~A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E!~

Those are sweet pictures of some adorable children. I'm glad you were able to get them done and that they turned out. Only Momma's know what kind of a chore it is sometimes.
What wonderful pictures of you and your family! Love the outfits/hats the boys are wearing!! :)
Heather,
Those pictures are adorable as are the correlating stories! Thank you for such an interesting, cute and often inspiring blog! We are praying for you in Columbia. It was so nice to see you and Phil and the kids this summer. I pray that God will bless you as you return to the mission field.
Love and Prayers,

Wow Heather those are incredible!!!! I loved all of them! Susanna Pilmore
These pictures are absolutely adorable! I was missing your children so badly today. I should have called and talked to them on the phone.
I can't believe it is almost Kimberly and Noah's birthday, and I can't believe it's almost time for you guys to go back to Colombia! Sob! Sob!
I'm so happy we got to have you at our house, and in the United States for awhile! The Lord has been good to us.
Love, Mom D

Dearest Heather, Grandmother, Aunt Carole and I are at Aunt Linda's admiring "my" grandchildren. We are having a fun time looking at all the cousins's little ones with whom you used to play baby dolls. Looking forward seeing you all on Monday but not the "farewell." Love, Moma
