Lil' Golfer

Golf has become one of Landon's new passions. Grandpa Kruse had one of his own putters cut down for him. Landon thought it was so neat to have a real golf club. He has been practicing at home everyday hitting the ball into small buckets. Yesterday we took him to the golf course to hit the ball, and he had a ball. :)

He makes a fish face when he is concentrating.

Hitting the ball...
Did it go in?
YES!

Minivan Mom

For those of you who don't know, we are now owners of a minivan! Yes, we have now officially taken on the mommy/daddy roll. It is funny because Tater had always said that he will Not own a minivan or have his child watch Barney. He has broken both rules. :) We both actually love our van, and we were so glad to have it last weekend for our getaway trip to Minnesota. Here is a picture from the Mall of America. Landon loved the rides there and of course I loved all the stores. :)
I really felt like a mom the other day when I took Landon to tumbling (open gym) in the minivan. We had a great time. My sister April and Jessica Beer invited us. Landon loved it. For those of you with kids, it is a great place to go to let them release their energy. Especially in the winter. Open gym is $5 for an hour. Landon loved jumping on the trampolines. They also have a foam pit, balls, balance beam and bars. Check out their website at http://www.risingstarsacademy.com/ for the open gym hours.
Anyway, I'm very thankful for our minivan, and I'm really enjoying our new ride. :)

This train got off track when Landon was on it. All the kids had to get off and couldn't ride it. Landon now prays for the broken choo choo train everytime we pray. :)
This was Landon's favorite ride. Driving the car!

Psalm 23

This was emailed to me and I thought it was adorable. It has inspired me to talk about God's Word more with Landon. :)
