A Trip to Grandma and Grandpa's

On Friday afternoon we set out to surprise Kevin's dad with a visit ~ he had retired earlier in the week and we thought we'd celebrate with him for the weekend. Kevin's mom knew we were coming....but I think we successfully surprised Grandpa S. :)

Chloe could hardly believe that they had a play sweeper:



She played with this a lot during the weekend....and all their other cool toys as well :)

Saturday was sunny (but windy!) so we got to hang out at the playground for a little bit. Chloe loved the slides:


And everyone got a chance to swing:


We also got to visit with Aunt Karen, Uncle Bob, and Stephen. Stephen would have made an excellent big brother (he's the little brother in his family) - he was very nice with Chloe, showing her how this tape player worked....although, he was probably a little disappointed that she can't say Stephen yet. We're still practicing though ~ maybe she'll have it down soon and I'll be able to put it on video! :)


We went to church on Sunday and then began our car ride home. We had a great visit and the next time Kevin's parent see us, we'll be a family of 4! :)

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....
