Gett'in into Summer

We are just starting our summer activities and BBQ's at church. We have our second "Sunday at the park" coming up this week and we are starting our mid-week BBQ's. We drove down to Everett for their Sunday night service and were so blessed to see some of the old faces we miss so much. We had a couple from church get married over the weekend and it was so cool to see what the Lord is doing in both of their lives and in thier families. We were so blessed to help out and be able to be a part of it.

We have been having lots of fun playing outside and with new friends, but especially with our baby bunnies.


They are only about 3 weeks old, but they grow like crazy. We are able to have a little more play time now that things are up and running. So the other day Kenya and Elijah became pirates. It all started as a wrestling match with Dad, in which Elijah's shirt got pulled over his head and he decided to pull his arms out also, just like that, you have either princess hair or if tied back in a rubber band, you are a pirate. We are glad he opted for the pirate as apposed to the princess hair. Well once that part of the pirate outfit came about. It turned into a 20 minute long quest through the dress up to find the perfect pirate costume. Oh, to be a kid again.
We spoke to the director of Annecy and Isaiah's Orphanage today and she said that they are still waiting for our paperwork to come out of the "Ministry of Foreign Affairs" which is essencially the permission position before you go to passports. If all continues to go at the pace the offices are going now the kids may be home by late fall. I know I don't even need to ask for prayer in this area as we are always so blessed to hear how many people are concerned for and pray for them daily.

We are still so excited to be doing what the Lord has called us to do and are so excited to see what comes next. A wonderful person shared a great quote with me this week and I wanted to share it with you, "Look no man in the face till thou hast seen the face of God, Speak thou with none, till thou hast had speech with the most high."- Charles Spurgeon.
