Father's Day!!

We always give Dad breakfast in bed...but when we went up to give it to him, he was gone!! It took us a couple of minutes to figure out that he had slipped down stairs, and was waiting for his breakfast:)

Thanks Dad for loving Victoria; a girl who the world would look at and say she will never amount to anything...but our little treasure!


Everybody get Daddy!!( Thanks for putting up with us over all these years:)
A normal picture...except Victoria and mom(doesn't our family look smaller?)

This is a Father's day picture from last year.(we sure do miss our two older brothers.)

Thanks Daddy for they way that you love Mom.
It's not easy to be a godly dad in this ungodly world that we live in. Thank you Dad for giving up your own life, so that you could pour it into ours. We love you SOOO much!! The word father is mentioned 997 times in the Bible. Obviously fathers are pretty important. Here are some verses that I really like that have the word father in them.
1John 3:1 "Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God.." I John 3:1 Ephesians 6:2" Honour thy father and mother;(which is the first commandment with promise;) Ephesians 6:2 and Romans 8:15" For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father." Romans 8:15
Thanks to all Dads out there who take their job as being a father seriously, and who try and copy the perfect example of  a Father...God!!
Philippians 4:13" I can do all things through Christ who strengtheneth me." Philippians 4:13

JoAnna's 7th Birthday

I cannot believe that our little JoAnna is7!! Blowing out the candles of our pretty flower cake( Some of the decorations were tootsie rolls from VBS:)


Opening gifts..her favorite gift that she got were three chickens from Grandma and Grandpa Krahn. JoAnna loves to run and check to see if there are any eggs from the chickens!!


JoAnna likes to talk to Victoria, climb trees with her sisters, make cookies with her older sisters, play games with her older brothers, and snuggle with mom and dad.



Our prayer for you, JoAnna, is that you would honor God in all that you do...
That you would grow to be more like Jesus, and that your goal in life would be to "Know Christ and  make him Known"

We love you JoAnna!! May God grant that you would live many more birthdays for Him.
