Thank you for stopping by to see what we've been up to! Here is a photo update from about April through August, 2012. Since the beginning of this year we've noticed even more of a rhythm to our life - something we've been looking forward to since the craziness of packing and moving started about two years ago. There have been so many things to enjoy this year. We've been getting to know the great people of Ignite even better, enjoying time with relatives and the 5 new babies in our families, developing good routines for the four of us, as well as our regular activities like men's and women's small groups, AWANA, and music class. It's been a good year so far, and we look forward to discovering what's up next. :)

| Seth became quite a good reader in school this year. :) |
 |
| We grew bean plants from a seed... and kept them until they produced seeds of their own. It was fun to watch the changes. |
 |
| The first tooth was lost this year! (And 5 more were to quickly follow suit!) |
 |
| Our wonderful, adventurous, tender-hearted boy turned seven April 10th. He is a gift from God and we love him so much! |
 |
| We celebrated our 9th anniversary on June 21st. |
 | |
| Our sweet, smart, creative little lady turned 5 June 8th. It's hard to believe our "baby" is this old. She is a treasure and we love her! |
 |
| We were very sad to say good-bye to our boy, Meeshach this summer. |
 |
| He was such a good dog and we're thankful for the time we had with him. |
 |
| We did, however, gain a pet this past year.... |
 |
| The kids very much enjoy Willow the cat. I think she enjoys them too. ;) |
 |
| Just for fun. |
 |
| The kids looked forward to the fair with much anticipation. It was a HOT day! (But a fun day!) |
 |
| No caption necessary. ;) |
 |
| Ahhhhh. That's good. |
 |
| I think she was just as eager to have cotton candy again as she was to go on the rides! |
 |
| We had fun making our first "from scratch" pie together. Raspberry. Picking the berries ourselves made it even sweeter! |
 |
| Steve spoke at camp again this summer, and we were very blessed to be invited to tag along for the week. Here's Steve, Seth and Haddie playing Gaga Ball. |
 |
| Seth in a Spider-man pose. :) |
 |
| Seth and Haddie got to make their own canoe paddles - so fun! |
 |
| We found out Haddie needed glasses. She likes them a lot, and is happy to see better! |
 |
| Thank you so much for being with us on this journey! We appreciate you, and our life is so much richer because of your friendships. |
