Cont'd Twins Dedication

More Pictures from the Dedication Sunday

The four sets of twins






The babies dedication outfits were compliments of their Great Grandmother better known as Gran! Thanks Gran, they looked like little angels.

The Twins' Dedication

Pastor Madela at Africa Trinity Church of the Nazarene led us in the dedication of the babies.

In a congregation of 60 we had four sets of twins present on the dedication Sunday. The pastor is a twin and his twin brother is a pastor also and helped in the dedication service. It was pretty amazing.

It was cool that the babies were dedicated on Fathers' Day and that Tricia's mom was able to be a part of the dedication.

The babies just hanging out at the reception following the dedication.

The Pastor and his brother with the babies. It was such a special service we felt like the whole congregation was celebrating with us. The pastor did the dedication in Zulu and English.

Thank you for all your prayers for the babies and our family. Everyone is doing well overall except for a cold that Jake brought home for school and then shared with us. We just pray the babies can fight this off with out a hospital visit. Please continue to pray!

Happy Fathers' Day!

Jake had a special Fathers' Day concert at his school. Jake had to wear one of his Dad's ties.


Instead of having the kids sing the songs from the front of the gymnasium they decided to have the kids go sit on there Dad's laps and sing right to them. Jeremy got this video of Jake singing to him. What a special day!


The three boys, Jake likes the fact that there are three boys and only two girls.

We are so thankful for Jeremy for the wonderful Father and husband that he is. We are very blessed!

Our Big 5 Year Old!

He felt like such a cool kid!
He had a special Spider-man party.

At the party place they had a "pretend" section and Jake and one of his friends enjoyed working out.
His favorite area of the party place was the motorcycle race track, he went around and around until he was absolutely exhausted.


He was moving so fast it was hard for me to get many pictures of him standing still, they were mostly action shots like this one. He was so excited to be playing with all his friends that he didn't eat any of his birthday cake he just kept asking if he could go play.

The party was a success he said it was the "eleventy-two-one best party in the world." So that must be pretty good... at least we think it is.

He also had a special guest at his party, which was pretty cool. His grandma all the way from the States came to help us for the month and was able to get here in time for the party!

Sorry it took us so long to post this, another update is coming soon. We promise!
