These are some of Cassidy's first girlfriends..........Ava and Jenna. We know them from church and this photo is from the last night of AWANA. Awana is a wonderful program for kids that teaches them about Jesus and the Bible in a girlscout/boyscout kinda way. Cassidy loved it! We went for about 8 months and this was taken at their awards ceremony.

Auntie Bea........this one's for YOU!!!!! God bless your soul!...........(Don asked me to take this photo for you........haha)

We had a picnic at Crescent Lake and Cassidy so freely shed her clothes..........It made my heart so glad to see her freedom, joy and abandon!!! How I don't want her to lose that! I thought of all my wonderful girlfriends as I pondered the difficulty of being a woman........I pray you are all "naked and unembarrassed" and I love you all!

Little Bean already has the outstretched-thankful hands to her Creator for His amazing creation!!!

We took a little hike today on the Railroad Trail of Crescent Lake.............This is our view of gorgeous Crescent Lodge. What a beautiful day!

My friend, Joanne, from Kol Simcha Farm. I met her at Care Net. I LOVE hearing this woman pray and talk about Jesus! What a true lover of God!!!! We loved visiting her farm; feeding the lambs and meeting her very cool hubby!!!

Lamb of God........You take away the sins of the world............have mercy on us............

Cassidy, Nonny and I went to a friend's farm and fed her lambs...........(Kol Simcha Farm, which is Hebrew for the sound of JOY) It was wonderful and really made us feel as if spring is REALLY here!!! And there is just that cool connection you feel to the earth when you visit a farm! It was also wonderful for Cassidy to see where food really comes from.........that information is unknown to our young for the most part. It was also fun to find that they use my cousins seeds from Territorialseed.com.........the most amazing pacific-northwest connection company!

Almost too cute to eat!

Nonny and Cassidy bake a super cute bunny cake for Easter.

You are all invited to Cassidy's party.........what a spread she lays out!!!

Happy Easter to everyone! We got up SUPER early on Easter morning to attend a sunrise service at the beach..........It was a very wonderful experience but Cassidy froze her little booty off!

We had our first ever garage sale Easter weekend.........Cassidy sold brownies, cookies and pink lemonaide and made $16.47........Wow!! It was fun & we did well and had nothing but sweet people but I'm thinking it's just way TOO much work!!!!
