Some people have asked us what it's like to travel so much with young kids. Some times it's fun....other times it's challenging.

For the most part Joseph and Faith travel well. I thought you might enjoy seeing a few pictures of these two traveling kids....

Sledding!

When we were in Colorado we went sledding! It was a fun time!!! Joseph and Faith had never been sledding before. They loved it!!!!

Every time Faith would go down, she would shout, "MORE!!!" as soon as the sled stopped! I loved watching (and taking pictures) of them with big smiles on their faces!!

What a great memory! Enjoy some more pictures and videos below.

Quiet Time

 Most days we have a quiet time. The kids are learning to sit quietly and look at books. It's a great time for me to read and pray too!

Joseph has done this a lot longer than Faith, so he's pretty good at it. Unless, that is, if his sweet little sister bats her eyes at him and cuddles up next to him. Then he thinks it's time to play! (so does she)

 Recently we've taken a few trips to the doctor for various reasons. The kids have been troopers putting up with things like getting their blood taken. They loved getting stickers when it was over and they walked out with smiles on their faces!

holding hands

Joseph and Faith have enjoyed holding hands lately! Sometimes they hold hands and walk around the house just for fun. I love it when we're getting ready to go and Joseph says, "Faith hold my hand because cars are dangerous!" Aww!! He's such a good brother.
