Shannon Dawn Photography!

We had the joy of having our good friend Shannon come and take more pics of our family but this time it was everyone! John's sister and her family came and we knew it was time for an update on our photos:)

VBS Performances!

I have been waiting for my child's first musical performance since before I was married! I love watching kids...so awkward and shy, so confident and loud, and then others just in their own world picking their nose. And then there is Caleb who I had to bribe with a lollipop to get up there and shake it! He has been doing it all week and I would've been so bummed if he just stood there (like he did at the rehearsal)!
But he did it! I am such a proud MAMA! I love this boy and I love watching him learn and grow! For some of you this may feel monotonous watching these videos but for family I know you'll appreciate it:)
Sunday Morning Performance!




The week of VBS!

Last Chance!!!

Okay I just posted about this a couple days ago but there was some confusion as to where to get the download. If you click here it will take you to Christianaudio.com. Where you can download a free copy of the Cray Love on audio!!! I have already listened to the first three chapters just from one trip to Ventura and back and it is awesome! I can't wait to drive to Ventura tonight:) I hope you all get the chance to listen/read this book! This "free" deal ends August 1st!!

Free Fun

Yesterday we went to the J Paul Getty museum down in LA! John really wanted to go see the King David exhibit so we packed up the van (thanks grammy and papa) and spent the day exploring, playing and becoming extremely cultured.haha
On the way home we took the highway 1 and stopped at the beach to watch the amazing waves!! Unbelievable..."God is Powerful"...."FEAR NOT" (vbs) A really fun day

Fun and Friends

This week was busy but so fun! We got to go to the zoo and beach with a our good friend Micah, this week. Caleb started his first "group swim" classes and loved them. We also enjoyed a week of VBS! "FEAR NOT" Caleb has been shouting it at least three to four times a day:)
