Updates!

Well, I went ahead and posted some pictures and wanted to give a quick update about what we have been doing. The beginning of this month was 4th of July picnic. About 5 of us couples met up at a park and grilled out. We had so much fun eating, playing catch, talking, etc. Unfortunately our fireworks got rained out so we did not get to see them. But we had a great time anyway!

The next week, Tim traveled to Kansas for a couple of interviews. Needless to say, we are still in the waiting process of a job for Tim so it was not a profitable as we would have liked, but Tim did have a safe trip driving a car all the way there so that was such a praise. During the weekend he was gone, I was able to go to Williamsburg and hang out with Dan, Karis, and the girls. It was so much fun to be with them and have something to do while Tim was away. (Was I ever glad to see him a few days later. I think I smiled the whole day!!! We were able to spend the whole day together the day he got back and it was wonderful!!! I really missed him.)

That same weekend, we were able to get together with G, Amanda, and Gretta as well as John and Bethany. We enjoyed our time with them. The boys of course loved playing the WII and the girls did what we do best...talked!! It was so much fun seeing them again and catching up.

That next week was VBS at our church. Dan and Karis came for that as Dan was teaching, and they all stayed with us a couple of days. We had so much fun with them and playing with the girls. Kayla just made us laugh and laugh. She got so excited every time she saw one of her Uncles or Aunties...she just loved playing with everyone!! And Krista is such a content baby...they are just so much fun!!!

July has been a great month thus far and pretty busy. We are planning on moving sometime in August...We are not definite on the date and will keep everyone updated, but we are starting to prepare with finishing up our jobs and packing and such. We are still obviously praying for a job for Tim, but are really ready to get out there and start our ministry at the church. We are so excited, but also sad to leave our wonderful friends here. We will keep you all updated as we continue to plan out our departure!!

I'm glad to hear how you guys are doing! We will continue to pray for you as you go through your transition to KS. Seriously, if you need a place to crash on your move to KS please feel free to stop here...or just stop by to see us or maybe we will come see you guys when you move...

Hey, Kristin, I don't see very much of my granddaughter in these pictures! You feeding her enough? Should I send some chocolate?
