Merry Christmas!

(putting up our 1st tree in our new home!)

Wow, what a year! What a semester! What a month! These last few months have seen many changes in our family....one of which was moving into a missionary house in September.

It has been such a blessing to our family to have our own four walls, a huge backyard for the kids to play in, dirt to dig in, etc. We thank the Lord for His provision for our family!

In August my little Noah Graham turned 1- where did that first year go? And with turning 1 and the discovery of walking, which as quickly morphed into running- let me tell you that Noah is ALL boy. He is in, and ON, everything, and everywhere.

His big sister is thoroughly enjoying it... they play chase and hide-n-seek and lets-see-how-late-we-can-stay-up-tonight games. She turns 5 in January and is already enjoying reading to us at home! She's a smart little cookie, I don't know how much longer I'll be able to keep with homeschooling her. :)

Joe is finishing up his last winter semester of graduate school.....his graduation in May is highly anticipated in our house, as everyone gets something out of it. No more studying, which means more playtime with Daddy, etc. Yeah for us! I am so proud of him, he has juggled so many responsibilities and done them all with diligence and grace.

I am finishing up my first semester of BTCL (Bible Training Center for Leaders) at our church in preparation for our time in Kenya....hoping to be able to use these great tools in teaching and training the women there.

Please join us as we pray for God to raise up people to join our ministry to Kenya.

Merry Christmas!
