Princess Wishes

Our little princess was spoiled this weekend. I saw already this summer that Disney on Ice was coming to Yakima and I knew that Anika would be amazed at the skating and, of course, the princesses. So we decided to have a special "date night". Daddy took Mommy and Anika out to the show and Andrew got to stay home with the babysitter. What an amazing night! When asked what she liked best, Anika said, "The skating." And her favorite princess is Ariel, the little mermaid. A highlight of the night was Anika getting to dress up as a princess. Our friend, Linda Werkhoven let Anika borrow a Sleeping Beauty dress. Anika had a great time!

Belle and Luimere:

Snow White and her prince:Jasmine and Aladdin (by far the best skaters!):

Mickey and Minnie Mouse:

Cinderella and Prince Charming:Sleeping Beauty and Prince Philip:Ariel and Flounder:

Stress?

To explain my lack of posts is to explain the turmoil of the (adult) Wickers' minds. Lloyd has received a call to pastor a church in Ripon, CA. Yikes!!!! We have been and will continue to spend the next few weeks on our knees discerning God's call and will in all of this. We covet any and all prayers as we wade through these waters.

We woke up to this sign (from God?) on our front lawn this morning. Our loving friends here are clear in their desire that we continue to be used of God here in Sunnyside.
(If you can't read the forks, they say 'STAY'.)

Kids, kids, and kids?

Hello! It's been a long time (but I'm happy to say I'm in under the wire and it has been less than a month:-)). It's been a crazy time around the Wicker household. Just living life is busy enough but we've added plenty of stress to all of it.

Might she have a touch of a dramatic streak????

Those baby blues hide a LOT of trouble:-)

Of course, I couldn't catch the perfect moment just before this when Andrew was sitting nicely as his sister read to him, but . . . here is the next best thing. (Do you think there is room for three on that chair????)
