Melanie's Senior Voice Recital and Bridal Shower

John David is 4!

John David and his mom made this snake cake, complete with a forked (chewing gum) tongue! He wanted to invite some of his friends to play/eat pizza at KIDS KINGDOM (you can see in background) tonight for his party!

We enjoyed celebrating with David's family John David's fourth birthday at lunch yesterday. The big boys wanted to teach Graham how to lick the candles! Happy Birthday, to our precious gift - John David Paul Gossett.

Graham's walking....well...almost!

Yesterday after Sunday lunch we all were watching as Graham was "walking". David said by next Sunday, he will be walking on his own - those sweet little hands looking for mommy! (Nat, I found his little walking toy at the thrift store for $1.00!)

A Special Day at Botanical Garden

As you can see, we had a ball! John David, Hudson and Gigi spent 4 hours at the garden yesterday. It had rained that morning and we had the garden to ourselves. We just played and played. The boys enjoyed feeding the fish our picnic lunch. JDP got a rough skinned up knee (look for it in the pics) right after we arrived, but he was tough! We played in sand, climbed treehouses, watched turtles, threw rocks in the creek, saw beautiful flowers.......!

Last time we went, JDP kept talking about looking for a panda. He knew pandas ate bamboo!

"Bow the Knee" - Church Easter Program

John David helped Gigi. He was part of the program and did well (notice my basket - it had goodies!) Some of the pics were dress rehearsal, but you can see things. Mama Ward helped out alot with sewing the costumes.

Jesus performing miracles!

John was a disciple and David was the angel that rolled the stone away!

Hallelujah, We serve a RISEN Savior!

Getting Ready for Easter at Gigi's

This is Graham's new spring crawl. Those knees take a beating so let's try something different.

I love the intense look of JDP and Hud's grin!

Ready to hide them!

Seth's First Career Home Run

It was yesterday against Madison County. The neat thing about it, one of his best buddies, Riley, was pitching!!!

Proud Dad!

And grandparents!

Seth hit that homerun his first at bat. You can see the scoreboard and John as first base coach. This is Seth's single after his second at bat. For the homerun, the ball went about 350 ft. - between the scoreboard and the foul pole. We beat Madison County 4-2. We are proud of our Seth! (Look for more pictures, I was at the concession stand and realized the game had started - Seth is the second batter - so I walked to the fence and I saw all of it, just didn't get any good pictures. I looked beside me and there was a professional photographer taking pictures, so we will check his website!)

Thank you, Lord, for our policemen!

Graduation Day!

Sean B. graduated from the Huntsville Police Academy last week. We are so proud of him.

May God protect this very special young man! This is today, Thursday, he stopped by after work at the ballfield. He is a blessing to our family.
