How About Deep Sea Fishing Today?

 

This morning dad went deep sea fishing.  When he got to the ship he called to tell us good morning.  I said, “It must be fun to go out to sea.” A couple of years ago Caleb and dad went deep sea fishing. Dad told us that this time was more fun than when he fished with Caleb because the waves were bigger and he caught more fish.  I thought that the pictures were awesome!

Joshua Is Hiding!

Joshua Is so cute.  Mom found Joshua in a gift bag.  It seemed like he was trying to hide, but instead he became stuck and started to cry.  The reason we think he got stuck is because he was attracted to the colors and went inside.  Then he trapped himself trying to get out the bag.    He loves bright colors  like red, blue, orange, pink, and  yellow.  Just take a look yourself!

Family Sports Day

This school semester we’ve been playing soccer.  My sister came up to me after the game, and told me a funny incident that happened on the field.  Joel asked Amy “How old are you?”  Amy said “I’m 10.”  Joel questioned “What’s your name?”  Amy responded  “I don’t know, we haven’t chosen one yet”  thinking that Joel meant the team name.  Joel exclaimed “Your name, your first name!”   Embarrassed, Amy responded, “Oh! Amy.”  I almost rolled over laughing. J

Joshua's Crawling!!

Is it not wonderful how a baby learns new things?   In the past Joshua has had to push against something hard which helps him go forward.  That isn’t really crawling but we just call it that J.  This week mom spotted Joshua crawling on his own. Mom was watching him and said “Look guys, Joshua’s crawling!”  We were so excited.

New play mobiles!

This week we celebrated a Biblical holiday called Rosh Hashanah, or The Feast of Trumpets.  We had a shofar contest to see who could play the best note or play the longest. Dad promised a surprise for the great job we did.  Later that week our family went shopping and all the kids kept asking about the surprise.  When dad bought the surprise, everyone was exited.  It was a box of play mobiles!  Guess what we played with the next day -  new play mobiles.

Caleb's got a cast?

Wow!  Caleb has a cast.  Caleb was playing baseball with Amy and Hannah.  Caleb ran  for the ball, slipped, and bent his thumb backwards on  his right hand.  A few days later mom took him to the Med-Stop.  The doctors said he would need  to see a bone specialist.  Mom dropped Caleb off dad’s office that afternoon.  The bone specialist decided he needed a cast.  So much for piano lessons.

Celebrating Sukkot

We celebrate a holiday called Sukkot.  It is a biblical holiday  that reminds us when God will come and dwell with us forever.

On this holiday we build our tent in the back yard and sleep there for a week.   This year our family made a Sukkah which is common to the holiday.   Look at our family inside our new Sukkah.   We love this holiday!J

The Unkown Nail

The other day Mom and Dad were looking at Lisah’s finger since her finger hurt.  Dad remarked that it might be an ingrown nail.   Caleb  heard what Dad said and replied,  “Dad my toe hurts; I might have an unknown nail.” Our brother was being very silly.J

Firemen to The Rescue!

This week Hannah found a cat stuck in the tree.  When she shared her concern with dad, he said “Have you ever seen a cat skeleton up in a tree?”  Hannah and the rest of us  kept watching the cat, and after two days of no movement, Daddy began to share our concern.  He tried to get the cat out of the tree by climbing the ladder.  He also tried to spray the cat out, which didn’t work either.  He decided to call the firemen. so they came.  First, they tried to shake the cat out of the tree by pushing a ladder up and down against the tree, but when they didn’t succeed, they sprayed it with their fire hose.  At first, they did a light spray, expecting the it to come down; but after it became obvious that that the cat was not going to budge, they decided to spray it with at 200 psi.  They succeeded!  You should’ve seen that cat! It tumbled out of the tree.  As soon as its paws hit the ground it took off like a bullet.

It was hilarious!

Joshua Having Fun!

We all love Joshua especially when he is curious.  This previous time his curiosity led him to the chicken bucket.  He was in the kitchen when he spied the big white bucket.  Then he peered inside and saw different delicacies.  One of the delicacies was oatmeal.  He smelled the warm custard milk, and then pushed the bucket and delightedly watched the milk flow in his direction.  He thought it was fun so he slapped the milk and took a slurp.  Boy did he enjoy his treat!
