The Linzey Team

Posted by Anna Last Monday our family was invited to join some friends at the zoo for their little boy's birthday, but Papa had some things that he needed to get done, so us kids decided to take all the youngsters and head to the Zoo for the better part of the day, giving space for undivided attention at home for Mama and Papa.  What a time we all had! It was an absolutely beautiful day, especially for a trip to the Zoo in the middle of January (69* F)! While we were waiting for our friends to show up, we all gathered in the middle of the Zoo entry (which is a painting of the world on the cement/tile ground that floors the entry: great fun for the little ones, and the big ones as well, to explore! We thrilled in practicing our geography! :) … And sang a couple songs: "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands", "God Likes People", "Happiness is to Know the Savior", and part of a song titled "I Believe" which was especially fitting for...

Elisabeth turned the big age of 18...  ...And it worked out for most of our family to take some airplane rides with some friends of ours around our area! Here are some pics of Elisabeth's birthday :) We all divided into groups of three, and Laura, Caleb and Joseph were the first group to go and the boys were good passengers to go with Laura because she specifically asked for a turbulent ride! She got it, and Mr. "Bee" also let her create some herself! They all came back with some different feelings than when they went in, I should say, a little more knowledgeable about what turbulence in a little plane is like (no one got sick, they just had stories!)   Anna, Christina and Joshua were shift number two, and we let Joshua have co-pilot seat :) He thoroughly enjoyed that! We also had QUITE THE RIDE! Joshua is not afraid of testing the limits of an airplane (Good thing we had a certified pilot instructor in there beside him!) and we got twists...
