It's been about a year and a half since I've updated here. Life has moved on and our family has experienced milestones corporately and individually. We've all grown in years, in faith, and in wisdom.
There have been birthdays and driver's permits and licences.
Harold and I celebrated 25 years of marriage! I can hardly believe that one!! I've been so blessed to share this life with him. His love for me, for our family, and for the Lord is the glue that makes our family strong.
John Wesley became the first official graduate of Hope Academy Homeschool. That was an emotional day for this momma.
But it was a GOOD day. We celebrated HIM. And now he's out in the big world making his way, working and learning and chasing God's plan for his life.
This past year also saw our family take a super fun trip to New York City and the New England states during the fall at peak leaf viewing time!!!
I loved getting to experience the sights with my crew, watching them see things that they had only ever seen in pictures or on TV.
We continued to worship and grow beside our church family. John Wesley's participation in the worship team has yielded a passion (and talent) for music that he is continuing to nurture.
We went to Winter Jam where we (especially Jared) rocked and worshipped with the Newsboys!
We've praised the Lord through dance.
And we've had just plain fun with dance.
We've had fun with our animals!
And fun on a boat.
And fun on the battle field, where Cody has discovered a love for Civil War reenactments.
We've spent precious times together as a family thanking the Lord for His love, His provision, and His protection.
I got to visit with my beautiful friend, Mary, who has known me forever! It feels good to "be known."
And we got to put our toes in the sand. It's been a good year and a half! We have so much to be thankful for--so many gifts. It feels like it would be a shame not to record them here, so it's time to pick our story up here where we left off.
