Catching up #2

Ruby was a strawberry for Halloween. We decided to go to our neighbors instead of hoping they would come to our door this year and I'm glad we did. We met a few new neighbors and Ruby loved dressing up. This strawberry outfit was mine when I was young so I'm glad Ruby got to wear it too. Enzo didn't dress up but he wasn't going to get any candy anyway. :)

Catching Up part 1

Here we are in December!

It feels like the fall just began (not to mention it still feels like fall here - I miss MN seasons) and we've had a busy autumn!

This has been the busiest semester for us as Chuck and I have both been in school but God has gotten us through and we're closer to him and to each other for it.

We've grown a lot as a family, learning to lean on one another when we need to and learning to lean on God everyday. We've been praying more than ever and are excited to see what God will set before us.

On August 17th, Chuck and I celebrated 5 years of marriage and on the same day my brother Jon and best friend Suzanne got married! They planned their elopement to Hawaii before they knew it was our anniversary. So funny.

Then on October 23rd we had a reception for the newly weds in Denton at a local coffee shop. It was a great time and my family was able to be here for it. Here's a photo of my mom and sisters and I that night.

Stay tuned for further updates and cute kiddo pictures. :)
