My.Its been so long since i have posted, and yet, when i think that it is really only about five weeks since we came home from Haiti, it seems like much much longer. I miss Karlee Jo more every day i think. I know i have cried more tears in the last few weeks than even when we left her. God is good... we know that no matter how long we wait, no matter how big the mountain, HE IS GREATER and HE IS BIGGER. I am so thankful for His wonderful arms of Love, Assurance, and that He has promised to finish the work He has started.

I have maintained a much lower key life style since i am back... until this week. (and i don't plan to repeat such a crazy week for a long while) The children and i are generally outside all day, except for naps, and other necessities:) Of course there is the normal cleaning, laundry, and cooking. We were able to go swimming several times during the really warm weather, which was a treat.

Jess and I are trying to focas on planning special family times for the children once a week. It takes special effort with him being gone two nights, and every other week we have church another evening. They love it tho.... we all do.

This infant carrier has been alot of fun for Abby May....">

Josh, a typical boy .... can't miss the puddles!!!


My handsome, sweet, ever giving husband... I love you Honey!!!



We were privaledged to be able to spend a camping weekend with my family.. swimming, boating, and just spending time together. I esp treasured the time since we had just heard of the sudden passing of a very sweet lady; Anna Marie Zook. You never know when your last time together will be.







And lastly... our little ones...We are so blessed!!!!!!!!!!!!!
