silly game

Untitled from Kristi Knipp on Vimeo.

Tim and Sam came up with a funny game while they were at home together this week. Enjoy!

helping daddy

Sammy offered her managerial skills to tim and his dish washing duty. She offered instruction and advice and even corrected some dish placement.
Hard work brings on the need for a drink. She has to concentrate to get water on the spoon and to her mouth. She couldn't be bothered to turn around to have her picture taken.
A great team!
"Fine mom - but i will only look at you for one second."
... all in a hard day's work...

friends

sammy and finley - watching a movie together. they are good friends. (fin lives upstairs).

I lift up my eyes to you - who are enthroned in heaven

Psalm 123:1

group pictures

"we love to laugh" (only good title i could come up with - guess i have watched mary poppins one too many times this week).


(more pictures from the Philadelphia project)

sammy j

thanks marilyn for such a cute hat! we are still getting good use out of it!

(its hard to get clear pictures when someone is constantly on the go).

race car

these two pictures were taken christmas eve and i am just now getting them on the computer. sammy loved playing in the car and we enjoyed the extra fun added to playing mario cart!

presently

life is in full swing. tim has preached the last two sundays. we are in a good routine with work and time together. sammy is getting time outs and the occasional spanking. tim and i are trying to be intentional about dates. we find great delight in the people we live with (joyce and calum and finley and debs). sammy's love for books continues to increase on a daily basis, which we love. sam and i love to dance in the kitchen - "how he loves" continues to be her favorite song. i am encouraged by the beth moore study our moms' group is doing. after a very long day at work on monday my heart could hardly contain the love i felt towards sam as she held my hand as i sang to her before bed. it is raining. i am sensing the Lord's peace and have a sure knowledge of His faithfulness.

if i had current pictures i would post them - i will work on that tomorrow.

thanks for checking in with us!
