Happy Birthday Jason!













Happpy Birhday Jason!

I am so thankful for you! You are a blessing to us. Thank you for being a good friend, brother in law, uncle, husband to Eir, and dad! I have watched you change and grow in the blink of an eye! I always knew one day it would just click and you would be on fire! Watching you read, going to church faithfully and driving here to go to church with us is so provoking. It is so awesome to look down the row at church, and see you and Eir! I love all our chats and how you want to read all that you can get your hands on. I am so encouraged by your childlike faith! It is just like a dream that we were talking about Preaching the Gospel to yourself everyday and what that means! We were having biblical fellowship...how awesome is that?! I am inspired, and so thankful for God's goodness, and favor on us! I love you dear brother. Thank you for putting God first, taking care of your wife, and children and being a Spiritual leader! Have a great day......We Love You!

Happy Birthday!
















We had a birthday party last weekend for Blase and Harry. It was just family a a couple of friends. We had a great time. I was on crutches because on Friday night the base of an umbrella (for my umbrella table) fell on the top of my foot. I have a fracture and have been limping for a week. I still cannot get tennis shoes on. My point is that Doug, mom, Lisha, Eir and Jason did all the work! Thank you! So we all went to church and then scrambled to put up just a few decorations. Our boys are so blessed, and we were so thankful for everyone that came. A highlight for Blase and Harrison was Mitch and David coming! Thanks Grandpa Tractor! The sun was shining and it was a warm! Today is 45 degrees! Anyway so Blase turned 6 yesterday and he is such a great boy. He has a tender heart and gentle spirit. I am so thankful for Blase. The Lord has blessed me with two healthy boys. Thanks Dad and Grandma Tacia for the cards! We love you all.

More forgotten Easter pics!







More Easter

These pics go with the post below. I thought they were on and made a mistake. We colored eggs in our yard because it was 50 degress Sat and Sun. Blase and Halle ended the weekend with sunburns!It felt like summer and the kids lived outside. So much fun!














Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! Love to all of you and miss you so much. We had so much fun. We went to an Easter egg hunt at the resort which was great. Grandpa Tractor came and visited on Saturday night, and he brought goodies for a surprise egg hunt for easter. The kids think the Easter Bunny left them... thanks Gramps! We went to church on Saturday night, it was so good. Easter was low key, and we ended the day with a family/neighborhood kickball game! What a blast. Favorite qoute of the weekend was from Halle to me and Doug. She said,"I am so excited that Jesus is going to rise from the dead tomorrow... that makes me so happy!" She is precious. He is risen!

1st day of Beauty School

Well a new season in Alicia's life, she started school at Traverse City Beauty College. She is very excited and loving it. Yesterday was her first day, and she learned how to properly blow out hair, section it, and do barrel rolls (curling technique). She has a 500 word essay do on Friday and a State law exam on Monday! There are stools in the classroom, but they do not sit. It was very hard for her to walk around last night...she ain't no spring chicken! We may have to get her a hot tub for soaking, or some Dr. Scholls! We ran into a friend at the mall and the girl asked her where are you gong to School? Lish replied like a pro, "TCBC!" It was funny to hear her say that. So thankful for what God is doing in the Gapinski household. Enjoy the pics!

Silly Fun!

My boys got some glasses from La Senorita and just love them! They look so funny in them and even us adults tried them on. They think the glasses are the coolest thing, and even tried to wear them into church today! Aren't they sweet?
