Chaney Bunch: Charity's Birthday with the family

September 4, 2010

Charity's Birthday with the family

This year, Charity chose chicken fried steak for her birthday dinner. Her siblings were happy to join her for her favorite meal.

Afterwards, we sat around and visited, and one by one the instruments emerged...

Charity opened some gifts.

Esther and Ethan investigating the loot

However, the kids were most intrigued by the sour balls in the candy dish!

They both know how to say "CANDY?"

After getting permission...(of course), grandma gave them each a sour ball, and it had the most unusual effect!

Having fun with the new toys...

More music

Even SAMUEL had fun with the new toys.
Connecting 2 barrels of monkeys is quite a feat!

fun with the babies

There are plenty of babies to go around!

Charity chose a movie for the evening, but the most entertainment came from the babies.

Little Jonathan found grandma's old phone book, and had a great time ripping it to shreds! Just the excuse I needed to throw it away!

He couldn't have been happier!

Jonathan's secret hideout

Esther enjoyed that guy who looks like daddy, but doesn't spank her!

She calls him "Docksun".

Music once again

Esther helps Hannah...Jonathan can help too!

Here comes the cake!

10 candles!

Happy Birthday

Jonathan likes cake! "gimme some!"

Since Charity got marbles- all of the kids decided to play a few rounds on the floor before breaking up the party.

even Daniel and Amanda got into the action.

Happy Birthday Charity!

Dan, Rebecca, Esther, Ruth and James Busenitz

Dan farms and raises cattle on the farm they purchased this year, and he and Rebecca are actively involved in music ministry in their church. Dan plays the banjo and bass, and enjoys hunting, softball, singing, and conducting orchestras and choirs. Rebecca composes Christian music, and teaches lessons in volin, viola and piano. She enjoys cooking, sewing and caring for the home and family. She and Dan also have recently started a home-based business with the "Herbalife" company. Esther's job is to expand her vocabulary and take care of little Ruthy and James; little Ruthy's job is to be cute, and excited about everything that she sees, both of which she has mastered! James is the spitting image of his father, and is as sweet as he can be.

Dave, Rachel, Ethan, and Jonathan Busenitz

Dave farms and raises cattle with his father, as well as farming, and is a skilled woodworker and guitarist. Rachel, in addition to caring for the home and children, enjoys crochet, quilting, scrapbooking and music. Little Ethan stays busy keeping them both hopping. Little Jonathan Seth is growing, and has a contagious smile and such a sweet disposition. Rachel miscarried a baby last fall, who they named Jamie. However, the Lord has seen fit to bless them once more, with a little girl due on December 3rd, her grandmother's birthday.

Daniel Chaney and Amanda Gerlach

Daniel, after meeting with Amanda's father for 2 months, was finally granted permission to begin courtship with the girl of his dreams on July 1, 2009. Daniel is a Senior at Wichita State University majoring in Accounting and finance, with a minor in economics. Daniel enjoys courting Amanda...but much to his dismay, there are other things that he must do. Therefore, he also works with Samuel on their lawn business. Daniel was offered and accepted a position that will start in January with Kennedy and Coe Accounting Firm. He plays the cello, banjo, classical guitar and sings, and is trying his hand at choral conducting, like his grandfather. Amanda is an angel, and if you doubt me, you should hear her play the harp! She enjoys scrapbooking, cooking for Daniel, and courtship night. She is very creative and has a real flair for the artistic. Daniel and Amanda are now engaged, and planning an August 6th wedding.

Hannah Chaney

Hannah is a senior in high school this year. She enjoys playing the violin and fiddle, piano, and mandolin. She teaches 3 violin and piano lessons each week. She is also in the first violin section of the Youth Symphony this year. She enjoys her time at home playing with and training her and Samuel's dogs. She also recently obtained 2 horses, which she trains and rides often. She began working at a local stables this summer, helping to teach young riders, choring, and training the lesson horses. Her other interests include sports, photography, outdoor activities, teasing her siblings, and family/friend get-togethers.
