This is way over due... the beginning of Feb. 2010 we took a trip to Florida to visit my grandparents... here a few pictures of recaping the trip... the kids did great on such a long road trip! It is also becomming a tradition for each child to have their first bannana cream pie in FL with the great grandparents... joshua loves bannana cream pie just like Annie and John - suprise suprise...

Another thing John and I tried to do was visit a different beach at sunset every night we were there - some evenings were colder than others - but what joy to be on a different beach every evening watching God paint a beautiful sunset before your eyes... one evening, we got to meat a couple on a motorcycle and got to pray for some needs that they had...another night we to took the kids and met a group of Jewish christians sharing the gospel and they prayed over our family...

Videos to come soon...

A long overdue update...

Christmas time with Annie

So it's been a long 4 months with no internet connection at the house and limited times at the library using the public computers...here are some photos and videos recapping some of the highlights...

We stayed in TN for Christmas and hung out with some great friends creating lasting memories. John is still working for his same company at the youth treatment center and we are now in a waiting process for john to receive knee surgry from an injury at work - the blessing is that it is all covered thru workman's comp:)...my horse business is about to get busy with the show season starting in March. A few students are still looking for horses, but hopefully we will find them something soon to be able to start the season with everyone else...Presently, John, myself and the kids are all in Florida visiting my grandparents and my mom came from CO for a brief visit in FL too! What a fun family times!
