Our 2012 family Christmas card

View the entire collection of cards.

I was excited to discover tonight that Shutterfly will send you a ten dollar credit if you post your Christmas card! So, I hope you like it, and I really hope Matt likes it. He won't be able to approve it for nine more days when he comes back from Argentina. They were having such good sales, so I just couldn't wait! Yes, I am already thinking Christmas in October. It just becomes so crazy for us as December gets closer, and I'm trying not to cry worry think about Matt flying to another continent as I write this! Please be praying for him and the others while traveling and during their mission trip to Buenos Aires.

Matt's favorite Bible verse:
Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

West Virginia and Tennessee

 

Ezra got to play with some big boy toys at my Uncle Jim's farm this summer in West Virginia. He had so much fun on our first trip out that we had to plan for another visit, and Uncle Jim and Aunt Gerry graciously allowed us back!

 We also took a trip with the Bost family to Tennessee. We took this picture inside The Great Smoky Mountains National Park by one of the first settler's farm. Although Matt and I will be the first to admit that we are not very good at "roughing it", we do love being outside enjoying God's creation. It was one of our favorite parts of the trip. Oh, and we saw bears (from the safety of our car). :)

 

Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. Revelation 4: 11

 



Our First Post

 

The boys just love their blankies. This is my favorite picture of the moment. I'm purposing to upload more soon of our recent trip to West Virginia. Ezra got to "drive" lots of big boy toys!

 

Lo, children are a heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. Psalm 127:3
