Lost Count of What Annual We are On


We love camping with our dear friends and this year's trip proved why we kept camping with toddlers - now everyone is out of diapers and no naps were taken!


Saturday morning breakfast entertainment (but it only lasted for 2 songs because we told them it was against the rules of camping). How many little faces around one tiny little phone! :)





The big girls were working hard during the weekend on their Fairy Village. It turned out really well and the details were sweet.



This boy didn't sit still much. He was riding, scooting, digging in the dirt. He loved every minute.



Saturday afternoon we went on the longest-two-mile-hike.  Ha! Even to the adults it felt like a really long 2 mile trail, but we survived!! Here are the eager hikers - we should have taken an after picture ;)





Who doesn't bring a ukulele camping?! We had musical accompaniment to our Sunday service. Then the older kids planned "Sunday School" in the back of the truck for the "preschool class".  Chloe and Leah taught a lesson on Noah's Ark. Avery and April prepared a snack.  There was even a bathroom break and a game!


We can't wait for the next annual trip! :)

Best camping trip yet!!! We loved every minute. Especially the minutes when I watched my kids go to the bath house by themselves.

More Bloopers

These pictures just make me laugh ~ especially the last two. I have a feeling that Aunt Laura, in particular, will think those last two are funny also. :)

A dear friend

I'm leading the study tomorrow at my Bible Study. We're reading a book called Crazy Love by Francis Chan and the chapter I'm in 'charge of' of real life examples of people who are living completely for Christ. I've come up with an example from my own life to talk about and I thought I'd let my blog readers in on what I'm going to share tomorrow. Enjoy! I met Mrs. Hohman on a hot July afternoon after mistakenly knocking on her neighbor’s door. I stood on her front porch with my mom, nervously waiting to meet the woman I planned on living with for my first year at Grove City . I felt like I was towering over her short frame as she showed me the 3 rd floor and barked the rules of “no swearing, no smoking, no boys”. I handed over my rent check and moved to her house in late August. September came and a fellow freshman had a mental breakdown and her bed was now available to me…… So, after 3 weeks of living with Mrs. Hohman I moved out....
