A Quick Catch-Me-Up
They say a picture is worth a thousand words.... So since we haven't posted anything for quite a while, we thought we would catch you up on some of our summer happenings through a few snap shots.
In June, we spent a week in beautiful San Diego. We had an absolutely great time visiting some of our favorite places around town and discovering new ones.
After leaving San Diego, we spent several days in Newport Coast where we met up with Kristin's parents and her brother's family. What a great time enjoying all there is to do in this part of Southern California.
While in the neighborhood, we couldn't pass up an opportunity to meet Mickey
(and Mary Poppins, of course...).
Our first year of pitching machine ended in July. The Cubs had a great time as they learned more about one of the best games on earth.
Maddox spent much of her summer playing with 21 of her imaginary friends
(and a few real ones, too).
Without a doubt, we'll forever remember this summer as the year we lost our precious Caroline Claire. The LORD has been so near to us in seeing us through this difficult time. We look forward to the day when we're all together in God's kingdom. Our friend Cindy said it best: "We and our children are truly safe. This child lives but now near Another's bosom."
To start the summer off, Nicholas played in his spring piano recital.
He also played in his first piano competitions.
