The ROOM is DONE:)

YEAH:) The boys have officially moved into their new room!!! After a lot of HARD work this weekend from Chris and his dad, the boys have slept in their room for two nights now....and they are loving it!!! it is soooo awesome and looks better than I could ever have imagined...I do not have decorations up yet or their clothes moved, but I am going to work on that...I just am sooooooo excited that they are able to have their new room and adjust to it!!!!!! also Ashley is adjusting well to having her own room for NOW!!! I told her that I would be cleaning out the boys' stuff and putting the baby stuff in and she told me "NO"....sorry little girl, you have to share with the new baby!!!

Thank you to Chris and George for all of their HARD work over the past few months!! IT looks GREAT:)

Just wanted to share the exciting new pics with everyone:) Enjoy!!

Sweet, Sweet Jillian

We would like to introduce you to our newest neice....Jillian Grace Lansink was born last Tuesday, July 14th and sadly left our world to be with God on Wednesday July 15th...She is a sweet angel and we miss her terribly...Please pray for Adam, Jodi, Ellie and Malia as they go on through this journey that is so, so hard.... We love you and are praying and thinking about you!!

Here are the proud big sisters with little Jillian...we couldn't have asked for a cuter ANGEL!!!

working on the new room

Grandpa and Grandma Schrunk came this weekend, so Grandpa could help daddy get farther in the room for the boys:) They got A LOT done so, it is just a matter of time now:) Hopefully not much longer, cause I think the boys are getting antsy...well and me too, but hey I have a lot going to happen in the next couple months, I need to start getting stuff ready!!! But not much longer now thanks to Chris and George's hard work this weekend...the room is really looking awesome!!:)

We also meet up with some friends last week after supper for some Sonic treats...yummy yummy... so their are pictures of that too...

The next few days are going to be crazy and probably very emotional for our whole family...we are praying for Adam, Jodi, Ellie and Malia and of course little Jillian...we can't wait for her to make her arrival, but are nervous and anxious as well...we are just praying for the best outcome for everyone and know that God has everything planned...Please if you can keep them in your prayers!

Also Grandma Jane is having knee surgery on Thursday this week, so we are praying for a good surgery and speedy recovery for her...

So for now, that is all! Just lots of prayers.....thank you!

Happy 4th and some picnics!

We had a pretty low stress weekend, which was really nice after such a busy one last weekend!

We just got to hang out and do a lot of cleaning and catching up on some playing... Chris had to work, so he missed out on the relaxation:( but the rest of us enjoyed ourselves...

On Saturday morning, the kids did have their neighborhood 4th of July parade to be in...it was their 2nd year, and this year they all got to ride their bikes/tricycle in the parade...it was lots and lots of fun!!! then afterwards we got to have refreshments and play with some of the neighbor kids! glad the rain held off for that fun event!!

We didn't even stay up to see any fireworks this year...maybe next year:)

On Sunday, Grandpa and Grandma Lansink drove up on the motorcycle...we had some lunch and then played in the park for the afternoon!!! it was lots of fun:) the kids always love it when a Grandma or Grandpa comes to play with them...way more fun then mom and dad!!!

Also last week, we had such fabulous weather, that we took advantage and ate our lunch outside as a picnic EVERY DAY!! it was sooo nice and the kids loved it...they called it a "picnic Party" !!! too cute:) anyway...it was nice and easy clean up for me, so I thought why not...there are some pics of them enjoying their "picnic party" included with the 4th pics of the parade!

Hope everyone had a great and safe holiday, and we will post more soon!!!
