My Little Boy is 4
Autry turned 4 on December 29. It was a really fun day. Him and I woke up early in the morning and made pancakes. When the pancakes were ready he got to go wake everybody up so he could open his presents. He got a Caspian book, a bible (it is the best children's bible I have ever seen), a pirate ship he could make, and this little dinosaur thingy. Autry and I went on a date and read almost the entirety of his new bible. Grammy and Grampy came over after nap and he got a few more presents, including his present that was "his best part of the day", His Prince Caspian, Peter, and Edmond figurines.
It started to snow so Grammy and Grampy had to leave. Autry and Randy played outside for a few hours, making a snow many and making a huge snowman. Then we had birthday dinner (hot dogs) and his Susan's Magical Horn Birthday cake.
It was such a fun day, I cannot believe that my little boy is 4. He is such a kind boy. Whenever his sisters wants something, he almost always gives it to them. He loves his sisters and his mommy an daddy so much. His favorite things to do is to have books read to him. When he knows how to read I don't think he will ever stop reading. He is full of information about everything and loves to learn. For his birthday we were able to go to the seaside aquarium and he was able to feed the seals. He thought this was the coolest thing ever. He gets so excited about everything. Autry loves people, and always wants to be around people. He loves his friends and all of our friends. We are so thankful to have such a kind sweet boy.
Christmas at the Beach
We had a wonderful Christmas at the beach this year. Instead of doing Christmas presents this year we decided to have Christmas in a small cabin in Cannon beach. It was a perfect Christmas. We had the beach and town basically to ourselves on Christmas Day. On Christmas day it was almost 60 degrees and we were able to play on the beach almost all day. It was a lot of fun. Throughout the course of the day we also read through the entire gospel of Mark. We had so much fun together as a family. Christmas Eve we had our traditional gumbo, gingerbread for breakfast, and a huge turkey dinner. We had a lot of fun and Randy and I were even able to sneak in naps in the afternoon. In Randy's words, "This was the best Christmas ever".

Addie turns 1
This is Addie on her 1st birthday. So cute. She is such a big girl, and such an easy baby. She loves playing with her brother and sister (except when they hurt her). She is such a happy and content baby, I can't hardly believe that she is one. Grammie, Grandpi, Nana, Papa, and Auntie Mollie were all came over to celebrate our birthday girl.
Pumpkin Patch and Pumpkins
We went to the pumpkin patch and it started downpouring about 10 minutes after we got there. The kids played under the covered area for a little while, while the parents talked and hung out. It stopped raining so we decided to go outside to get our pumpkin. Then it started raining again, we got our pumpkins at New Seasons this year.

Since I didn't post for months and months here are a few summer pictures
Autry's swimming lessons.
The first couple weeks of September Autry took swimming lessons. He loved it so much. He can now put his head in the water and blow bubbles for 5 seconds. His teacher's name was Allison and he asks to pray for her every night at dinner.
