We just got word last night from the Coopers that they and the kids will be coming home due to the flu epidemic in Mexico. Remember they are our best friends who are missionaries at a University along with their children Carter (5) and Emerson(3). They are located in Puebla, Mexico . . . way down south. Clay's sister and her husband are also there along with several friends from the states. CMF (their parent organization) has ordered all their staff in Mexico back to the states. Amanda and the kids are the first to leave this Sunday along with a pregnant staff member. Then Clay and the others will follow in the next days to weeks. Please pray for their safety and health as they prepare for the trip. Also pray that the local students understand and don't feel deserted by their new colleagues. Thirdly pray that the US doesn't close its borders before everyone that needs to get home is home.
Blogging and Praying that I never forget these days . . . .
Wonderful Weekend

Jack's FIRST Birthday
April 20, 2009
Jack's first birthday party was loads of fun. Max gave him a Lightning McQueen ride on that Jack went nut-so over. He loved pushing the buttons and dancing. Watch him dance to his singing card in the video below.
Max found a new friend in Laney. They ran and giggled during the party. They even got to help open the gifts because Jack was too interested in the crowd watching him.
Abby and Nick couldn't get him to get messy with his cake. He just looked and licked and smiled that gorgeous smile. He is such a fun little ONE year old! Thanks for letting us enjoy your party with you!
What Goes In . . .

MUST COME OUT!! Max really enjoyed his bright blue snowcone from Pawpaw at the soccer fields. He didn't enjoy Mommy scrubbing it off later before Brittany's Wedding!! The first cul de sac wedding went off without any problems. Our neighbor, Chuck, married off his oldest daughter this weekend. It was a beautiful wedding with great spring weather.

Swimming Day 14
5 Tons
April 18, 2009
Friday Jay, Max, and I shoveled five tons of pea gravel under our deck. We were tired of the mud and filth since it doesn't get any sun. Jay spent time a few weeks ago placing a landscape border and fabric down. Then on Friday we tackled the big project of the gravel. During one of the off loads, we caught Max imitating his unk JP. Check out this photo and you will see what I mean . . . He had his shirt off and was posing in the reflection of the windows flexing his muscles. That pic's for you P! The deck looks great with the gravel underneath. It looks finished and landscaped. Now I just have to get my flowers out and some shrubs for the edges of the deck.
