Among other things...

We're missing Miss Kate as her Daddy got a new job 5 hours away so she's not just across the river any more. We had to post some pictures of her just for fun.

A goofy grin as she enjoys the sand on the Oregon Coast.

Summer time fun with cousin Phi on a farm picking beans ... and eating them.

We've been busy obviously since our last post, one of the highlights though was a trip up to see Chatty and the Mr. for a four day weekend. I don't have the camera today or I'd have a few pictures at least. Chatty has an embossing set that she generously shared and we had fun making cards one afternoon while the kiddos slept and the guys played disc golf and racket ball.
We had some fun times with Drooler and his family and IOI and The little nuggets. We even got to visit Granville Island one evening. It was great. I'll try and do a post about it with pictures though as we went to some gardens at a park up in Richmond, very beautiful!
This last week Jon and Deb moved on Saturday but they wanted to be out of their house here Friday night so the carpet cleaners could do their job before they left. So we got to have a dinner for them and Dad and Mom B. and AJ , and Sus before meeting. Then J and D and Miss Kate spent Friday night with us, this was fun cause we didn't get to go along to help move since we'd already been gone the weekend before. It was our All day meeting here in town plus young peoples meeting (which we still attend ;) so it made for a busy weekend anyway. Now were trying to get plans under way for a week long trip to Kalamath Falls that we've had planned for a while now but we leave in 12 days or so. Definitely looking forward to that one, especially since it means we get to see Miss Kate (and her D & M) again so soon. Of course a week out of the ordinary sounds great too.
And now this little man had some news he wanted to share...


"I'm gonna be a big brother next April!!"



we're all looking forward to seeing who this little one will be!?!

HE shall feed HIS flock like a shepherd: HE shall gather the lambs in HIS arms and carry them in HIS bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young. Isaiah 40:11

With regards to Miss Kate, your loss our gain!

And, Holy Cow. I don't know how you do it! If I lived there I'd bake you a casserole or something. Congratulations! Hat's off to ya!

Here's to hoping I'm getting a new niece in a few months. ;) But I'd love a nephew, too, of course! :)
