Summer is winding down and we are ready to slow down a bit and hand out at home. It seems every summer we commit to not being as busy, but for some reason it never quite works out that way. Maybe we should try to get busier and see if that has the oppisite effect. The kids had fun taking care of the new batch of baby bunnies this summer. As soon as another bunny has babies we become the favorite house on the block.
We have had a fun summer with lots of little trips and visits. Our highlight was Califonia with a stop over in Oregon to go to our favorite church retreat Applegate. While there we got to visit an art gallery. A woman who wanted to paint pictures of Haitian Children to benefit the rebuilding in Haiti had painted a picture of Annecy when she was about 5. It was beautiful! We got a shot of Annecy standing next to it.
We got to play with Grandma's and Granpa's a lot and had lots of snuggle and lov'in time.
And as a cherry on top of the cake, we had our wonderful friends the Wheeler's move into town.
We are getting ready to start school again and really put our nose to the grind stone this year as we are all getting older and that means mom has to actually start doing school along with them, since she didn't pay attention the first time around and now has to teach it.
Church is growing like crazy lately and we have officially grown out of the building we are in, we could really use your prayers and we are trying to get into a new building, but trying to work out the financial end of it and make it work for both parties involved. We know the Lord is the great provider and will work out all things. We have been very blessed financially with the building we are currently in, but unfortunatly we have way to many kids to make it still work. Please pray we will walk in his leading and not try to do what we think will work. God Bless you all!
