5 Years Ago …

This is the 5 year anniversary of Kevin’s graduation from Seminary, and I thought I’d share one of my favorite memories of that special day, the class hymn, In Christ Alone.

Pink … the Verb

2012 has been the year of PINK in the Draper household.

But I don’t meant the sweet color.  Nope, we’re talking the verb pink which means to pierce or punch (thinking PINKing shears).  My boys, led by Luke, have taken pinking to mean poking and our lives are full of surprise pokes constantly.

In honor of this irritating tradition, we’ve declared today PINK haiku day.  Here’s an Ode to PINK x5 Drapers.

Benjamin –

Red and white makes pink
Pink is very annoying
‘Cause my brother pokes

Luke –

Pinking is poking
I like to pink my brother
Because he pinks back

Stanley –

Oh Luke, my brother
How I detest this pink thing
Which you invented

Kevin –

Not only a noun,
Pink is also a verb.
Luke, stop pinking me!

Sallie –

Happy Birthday Stanley!!

Celebration day –
Sixteen trips around the sun
for my dear first-born!

May Photos

This month an iPad entered our lives!  And so did lots of fun camera and video software.  So I’ve put together a video compilation of the photos taken with the iPad in May.  Enjoy!

Ascension

Just got home from church.
Word and song through the church year.
Ascension glory.

Wedding Afterglow

Wedding memories …
My guy danced the Chicken Dance
Once in lifetime fun

My sweet boys had fun.
All dressed up.  Willing to smile.
Brothers bond is strong!
