SUMMER FUN!

Sorry for the lack of posting lately, we've been quite busy since summer has started !!

I should go back and do some birthday updates (Brock #16!!, Erica #13!!! and Derek #2!!), but that will take some work going back through some pictures....

For today, Erica agreed to upload a couple pictures from the last week or two...

There is nothing like beautiful, country sunset after a long, hard summer rain !! We have had some pretty hard thunderstorms this past week. BUT, God has brought with them a couple of awesome rainbows and some fun splashing in the (huge) puddles!!

Derek loves the water! He LOVED getting splashed by Brock and Erica.

Unfortunately, Micah broke his arm at Hope Fest!! He was playing in one of the inflatable jumpy houses and apparently landed wrong! :) It's a minor fracture and he'll be out of the cast in just a couple of weeks.

Erica is really becoming quite the photographer lately! Check out a couple of her flower pictures...I LOVE the second one (with the sunset in the background!)

"Consider how the lillies grow.
They do not labor or spin.
Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor
was dressed like one of these."
Psalm 12:27

HOPE Fest Highlights

Our first HOPE Fest was a success!! The HOPE Ride was rained out (although we still had a little "People's Choice" voting for the Bike Show). The weather cleared in time for the hog roast, festival and concert. We are so grateful to all those who helped. AND we are definitely looking forward to next year's "2nd Annual HOPE Ride and HOPE Fest" in early June!!! :)

Here's some highlights:

HOPE Fest 2010!!!

We would LOVE for you to join us at HOPE Fest today!!
If you can't make it.....would you be so kind as to pray...
May God be glorified. and children rescued. all in Jesus' name.
