Celebrating St. Patrick's Day, Part 1

💚💚We started March 17th in worship and prayer with the McMurray Man Band 😂💪💥

(Their leading was very, VERY sweet!!! 🍀🍀🍀)

We took communion and celebrated a precious time with fellow believers! 

💚💚💚

And then...WE FEASTED!!! 

We had a beautiful meal of Corned Beef, Cabbage and many other delights!  

🍀🍀 What a special day!! 🍀🍀

 

Swing dancing fun!

Dressed up and ready to head out to a local swing dance competition!!

Getting ready...more birthdays and Grandpa is coming!!

Getting balloons for the upcoming birthday boy!!! 

Mmmmm...thinking about bunny butter...hmmmm...😏

And considering green cakes...hmmmm....🍀🍀🍀

Our tractor is getting very overloaded as we prepare for Grandpa to come 😂

We had to get Grandpa his dinner beer...

Andrew's response: "Can I get some in my sippy cup?!" 😂😂

The boys are excited for Grandpa's visit, they are busy helping get everything nice and clean!! 

😂😂😂😂

Math, pancakes, music & prayer!

Saturday morning math game fun!!  Jammies included...

(Well, boys = dueling markers, but we tried to keep the focus on math anyways 😂)

😍💞Sweet Natalie made the little boys special bunny pancakes!!😍💞 

Joshua held Andrew for a minute this past Sunday during worship and I thought he would hand him back when a song started...but he braved playing the drum with baby in tow...

W💥W! That's true manliness right there...praising God with the babes in hand!! 😍💪

😍😎😍

👆I L💗VE this!!👇

Teens and tots all praying over one another!! PRECIOUS!! 

The Body of Christ is so beautiful!! 

MEN, MEN, MEN!!! Building STRONG MEN!!

Andrew gets VERY EXCITED to work with Daddy on anything...cars especially!! 

They had to take the wheels off and part of what they were fixing was behind the seats, so they had to take the back seats out and here is Andrew, happily "helping" Daddy!! 

😂😂😎😎💪💪

💪💥 Joshua was all in on this job too!! 💪💥

Another part of their Manliness Training??

💪💪💥💥GYM TIME WITH DADDY!!!💪💪💥💥

Pure grit and determination in that almost three-year old face...YESSSSSSS!!!  

Yes to REAL MEN!!

And one more ingredient in this awesome training program...

Do HARD things! Scary things! Things that make a boy tough!

(Big J built a bike jump for little J)

WE L💙VE and respect our MANLY MEN!!!  

We are so thankful for their strength that they use to help and serve others!!!
