God has been gracious to us and has been with us through our journey of love and life. He has carried us through some of the most difficult times and has given us joy in the midst of sorrow. He has also been loving and given us abundant blessings. Most importantly, He has provided us with faith. May we share that faith with others.

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11
"God's gifts put man's best dreams to shame".

June 2014

Here's what we've been up to this month through pictures -


Lilly finally got her hearing aids!  We're noticing a subtle difference already.  She babbles a lot more.

Liam drawing Bob and Larry from Veggietales.


Liam loves to build things with his Legos.  This is his giraffe.

Lilly accessorizes for everything - even walking the dog


...and eating.

Lilly enjoyed most of the strawberries we grew in our little garden.

Liam took swim lessons and did an amazing job.  He learned a lot.



Lilly accessorized to watch her brother at swim lessons.


Strawberry picking at Cedar Creek Farms.  We used the strawberries to make freezer jam.






They were kind enough to let Liam check out the tractor.



Fathers Day weekend included pool time, brunch complete with a chocolate fountain, and fishing.








Liam caught two fish in one cast.  They were large bass.






For Wayne Children's Zoo







Liam liked dressing his stuffed animal friends.  He dressed them for bed and to play.



Liam has become really good at riding his hot-wheel.

Yet another trip to the zoo.  Liam wore his zoo keeper outfit and wanted to get a picture with the zoo keeper taking care of the monkeys on monkey island.
