The Florida Whitakers: Happy 4th!
http://mnwhitakers.blogspot.com/2012/07/happy-4th.html
Chronicling the adventures of Vance, Terri, Isaac, Claire, and Evie. Thursday, July 05, 2012. We hope you all had a great Independence Day! The kids wanted to make a flag cake this year, so we did. They are getting to be pretty good cooks, and they made the cake, the frosting, and put the fruit on with only a bit of direction from me. I'm going to be handing over my kitchen pretty soon at this rate! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Good times with old friends.

The Florida Whitakers: Back Yard
http://mnwhitakers.blogspot.com/2012/06/back-yard.html
Chronicling the adventures of Vance, Terri, Isaac, Claire, and Evie. Sunday, June 17, 2012. And the back yard. There are a few more finishing touches for the back, but you get the idea. The side yard. I really love having a shell path instead of grass over here! Much easier to manage, and more functional for a space that doesn't have much visibility. I have always loved using shells instead of rocks.but not very practical where we live :). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

The Florida Whitakers: Good times with old friends
http://mnwhitakers.blogspot.com/2012/07/good-times-with-old-friends.html
Chronicling the adventures of Vance, Terri, Isaac, Claire, and Evie. Wednesday, July 11, 2012. Good times with old friends. Please be praying for Yesupadam. It looks like he has shingles, and those of you know anything about this disease know that it is very painful. There is also not much available for treatment (that I know of). Please pray for God's healing power over his body, and strength and perseverance as he travels and speaks and stays in other people's homes for the next month.

The Florida Whitakers: September 2014
http://mnwhitakers.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Chronicling the adventures of Vance, Terri, Isaac, Claire, and Evie. Tuesday, September 30, 2014. On Saturday, Evie had her long-awaited fourth birthday. Up until now, I have escaped with having little family birthday parties for Evie. That has always been enough for her, but she is more aware this year, and so she requested (and got) a Rainbow Unicorn party. How can I describe my Evie Lynn? A Little Light Reading. Last week, Isaac passed a big milestone- he read through the Bible for the first time!

Last week, Isaac passed a big milestone- he read through the Bible for the first time! Way to go, buddy! May it be the first of many readings! That is so awesome! We ask the same question.

The Florida Whitakers: Claire is 5!
http://mnwhitakers.blogspot.com/2012/12/claire-is-5.html
Chronicling the adventures of Vance, Terri, Isaac, Claire, and Evie. Monday, December 31, 2012. On Wednesday my girl turned 5. In so many ways I feel like she's been five for a long time.sometimes I have to stop and remind myself of how little she still really is. Five years old finds my Claire full of life: artistic, creative, generous, social, and so loving. She is my kitchen assistant, my little mama, and her daddy's sweetheart. We love her so. 8211;pink and purple and blue and gold. Daniel (a friend ...

The Florida Whitakers: December 2011
http://mnwhitakers.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Chronicling the adventures of Vance, Terri, Isaac, Claire, and Evie. Monday, December 26, 2011. Claire has been in a state of majestic exhiliration all day. She is the birthday girl, and boy howdy does she know it. Claire had her favorite sticky bun breakfast, and her favorite mac-n-cheese dinner. She requested a castle cake, and I ambitiously decided to make fondant from scratch and assemble a 3-D palace, even though I'd never touched fondant in my life before. Ambitious? Who makes you laugh? What is so...
