Random Pictures

I am kind of behind in postings...mainly because our church is doing a 21 day fast and I really wanted to teach the kids about fasting.  We talked to them and explained why we give something up, and I asked them what they would like to give up.  Titus at first said chores and made me laugh!  :)  Then we talked about how it is important to do something that will be hard.  The kids amazed me.  They chose movies and video games (i.e. the TV) and all electronics have to be off after dinner.  And since that is normally when I blog, it has been hard finding the time.  But I have a few minutes this morning before church, so here are a couple random pictures..

A typical lazy Saturday...if we are actually home :)

Sledding on their new tubes!
(before we lost all our snow with the crazy 50/60 degree weather we had all this past week)

Asleep in the car

This is a 30 gallon tank...do you see how huge our oscar and plecostomus are!

Here is a better fiew of the oscar.  When we got him a couple years ago he was the size of those goldfish...which are his feeder fish :)

He's staring at me... :)

I LOVE that you are fasting as a family and that your kiddos were so sweet to think of TV and electronics on their own!
