21 Months and Getting Bigger!


IJ is now twenty-one months and his favorite things at the moment are choo choos, trash trucks and any truck in general. If you mention any of those three you could get him talking for about three minutes about that favorite thing. Only repeating the words he knows about that item. It is fun to see his enthusiasm. He still enjoys reading books, he has his favorites and we are reading them more than once a day over and over again. He is involved in swimming this summer and amazing us of how well he is doing. He is so brave. We are also doing a pre-preschool class like thing once a week and he is having fun with his friends and the fun toys. He is also in a big boy bed and enjoying the independence. We love him and thank you all for your support and love that you have given him, it means the world to him and us. IJ is still the joy in our lives! He can bring us to laughter with his giggles and enthusiasm.

Aunt G Came to Visit Again!


Aunt G came out with my mom to visit with other family in CA. I went as well, but as a treat she followed us home and decided to spend some time with us! We so enjoyed having her with us. IJ thoroughly enjoyed her reading to him and playing with him. We had fun at the mall, riding on the carousel and eating out. We love her and have so much fun with her!

OHIO



Yep, you guessed it we were in Ohio, God has led us another adventure! We are planning on moving to Ohio. Marshall's work has led us out there. And we bought a home there and are moving soon. While were house hunting there Nana and Papa came up to meet us and help us look and spend some time with IJ. We were grateful for their help and company. We will keep you posted on any other news. We love you.

Dear Friends in LA



We stayed with some dear friends in LA when we went to the wedding. We felt so welcome there and enjoyed their hospitality and always their friendship. We so appreciate them for speaking into our lives and encouraging us. Thank you for everything.

E and A Wedding Day


Our dear friends got married just recently in LA. We so enjoyed being apart of this joyous occasion. The Lord was the very center of their wedding and His glory was showen. We love them dearly and pray for God to be the center of their marriage always.

We Have Been Busy Visiting in LA


Our dear friend C went to Colorado to pursue the woman of his dreams. We went up to LA to say goodbye to our dear friend and wish him well and tell him Godspeed with our other dear friends. He will be dearly missed by all, but we know God has something bigger than that and we do not want to be in the way of that. In the picture is R, C, I, M, and IJ. We love them all and enjoyed our time with them.
