Time Flies When You're Having Fun!

Hello to all! We miss everyone so much, and feel quite out of contact these days due to our own fault. We have been so busy! Life at Glorieta is going well! This being our first summer out here, we have just had to experience it first, so there have been a few bumps along the way. But all in all, we are totally whooped, but completely fullfilled! We are still humbled by God's grace in putting us right here! In case you are wondering what life is like out here, let me fill you in. Close your eyes and imagine America in the 1950's in a small town combined with life on a church staff, and there you have it! It's like a large church campus where we all live and work together, but we have guests, volunteers, and staff on campus, so you can walk around and stop and visit with whomever you pass on the road. You can sit on the front porch, eat peanuts and drink a coke while watching the kids in the yard and saying hello to all who pass by! It is quite idyllic, and a wonderful place for family vacations, and group trips! So, if you get the chance, come on out! We would love to have you! We'll take you on in putt-putt, but beware! Just ask the Smiths or the Parkers! See what they have to say!
Well, Joshua officially turned 2 years old last week! It seems like just a month or so ago we celebrated his first year, and now we are onto the next! He is growing up quick these days. He is finally speaking for himself quite a bit, although Kimsey would still love to be his spokesperson! Here are some pictures of Joshua opening his birthday presents from his Nanna, Uncle Joel, Audrey, Lance, and Grandmother and Grandaddy! He loved his present time! It gets more fun with each year!

Josh's face as Daddy brought the presents in the room!
Boys and their trucks!
Something to beat on!
"Shoes!" yelled Josh!
He loved his new clothes!

Back to work!

We have had a blast this summer, and have so enjoyed our company, too! All of Andrew's family made it out this summer, followed by our dear friends, Scott and Claire Smith, and then a suprise visit from the Parkers! Our Lakewood Family is still very close to our hearts and we are thankful that the miles haven't distanced our relationships! Please forgive me for not having posted anything lately! We love you all!

Andrew, Holly, Kimsey and Joshua
