Family Update

As you are reading this, we are in Mississippi!
We are here for a missions trip and joining us is Harold's youth group of Riverwood Bible Church. Please be in prayer for us!

We'll get pictures up when we return.

Bonner's Visit, Part 3

Playing in the snow with Momaw and Popaw! What a cute pose.

We had alot of fun, it snowed and the snow was a great powder, a little hard to make snowballs, and near impossible to make a snowman-but great to run around in, not wet at all.

Some of you may see this picture up close soon....

Luke had lots of fun! Hard to tell because of all the clothes I'm wearing but here I am, very pregnant.

Another great pose!

Playing under the red berry trees

Family shot!

Cute photo shoot for the Parents

And, by the way-for those of you who have never been here, this is our house, the middle unit with the open garage is ours!

Bonner's Visit, Part 2

watching Cars and playing Webkinz

Woody and Bullseye chillin' in the Steak N Shake car.

Christmas with the Bonners! We had lots of fun, you can't tell in this first picture though...I think he was not excited about having to pose by himself in front of the tree...maybe we shouldn't have told him that we were opening presents until after we took the picture!

He wanted to show the presents to everyone, here he is showing Popaw clothes for his new baby / and opening one of his gifts-a very cool just-for-kids nativity!

Helping Mommy open a gift


The tube had a present in it but Luke thought it was the toy! He danced around the room singing into it-lol/ helping Popaw again

Look at that big grin! A giant Cars coloring book! Wow


Momaw kept pulling more stuff out of places!/ and Luke helped Daddy open as many presents as he could

He opened a gift for the new baby, it was a blanket/bear like his bears...here he is giving it a kiss! Sweet.

Helping Popaw again/ and Playing with his new Woody and Bullseye

Luke had lots of fun-as you can see. And we have another Christmas coming! Yeah!

Trip to MS/Open House

We recently go back from our trip to Mississippi, here are some of the pictures!

We spent much of the time playing and hanging out with family...

Luke really enjoyed his cousins

I had a special treat-to go watch Hannah cheer!

Then, of course, our reason for going-the 50th Open House at Friends of Alcoholics where Aaron and I grew up!

this is the main building containing the offices and living areas for the students

Mike Bonner (Director) and

Rick Barth (Founder's son, former Staff, and Speaker for Open House)

the afternoon service

a wall of memories in pictures

the grounds from the main road

grown up F.O.A. kids (minus a few!)

(oh, and bonus-pic of me 6 months pregnant!)

I think its safe to say that Luke had a blast

the picnic after the morning service

Luke and Madison

those handsome men again

Luke at the end of the day...looking quite...interesting-"train wreck" fits perfectly. ;)

We had a great time with our family, vacationing at "home", fellowshiping with other believers, catching up with old friends, and taking part in praising God for this ministry!!
