Summer Time....

Summer has gone by so quickly and it's so easy to let time pass between seeing or even communicating with family and friends.  We thought the summer would be fairly relaxing and slow, but it's proving to be busy as ever...but in good ways!  We even thought Benj would be traveling quite a bit, making for another hard summer of being apart, but that's not the case either (praise the Lord)!!!

Instead, here are some recaps of the past few months and we are so thankful that God has provided such wonderful people in our lives to share it with!  He is so good to us and we pray that we are able to show others His love and overwhelming presence in our lives each day.

>We were able to take 10 days to visit family in Tennessee and Ohio, and be a part of a friend's wedding!  Benj was able to visit right before vacation while he and his brother were working around that area and I was able to go home for my grandma's funeral and be with family during such an important time in all of our lives.  She meant the world to all of us and helped raise us, God was so good to provide a way for all of my siblings and cousins to be there together!











>Spending time with Benj's family here is always a joy, especially when these babies are involved!  Never a dull or quite moment in our home and that's the way we like it :)  Benj is still playing and writing music!  And I even learned to shoot a gun!










>We've had tons of time together and with friends that we love.  It feels more and more like home for us!







>And despite the heat (in the 100's for weeks in a row), summer has been great for us and we'll try to enjoy it before the cold comes!  It's already starting to be cool in the mornings and late evenings, but the afternoons are still in the 90's.  We have picked up cycling again and are excited about our new bikes :)
