Fifteen Years!


I can't believe it's been fifteen years! Praise God for his bountiful blessings to us. We celebrated our anniversary by going to the Cavalia circus horse show on our actual anniversary, thanks to my mom and dad coming through on their way back from the coast and offering too watch the kids so we could stay out late.  The show was pretty amazing! I especially enjoyed the acrobats. The horses were beautiful and majestic, of course, but I know relatively little of what goes into training them - but the feats of the acrobats are just incredible and I'm plenty familiar with the normal limits of the human body.  We had a lovely time!

Unexpected Houseguest

In February of 2020, shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic shut everything down, we ended up having an unexpected houseguest join us for a few day - which turned into 6 months!

When you go to a wedding...

And you take pictures! This was at the wedding of Luke and Maria Dahlin, who thoughtfully provided a photo booth for their guests, run by Peter Mahar. A good time was had by all!  Photo booth silliness! My two blondes. I love this photo: Judah all casual and Ezra so serious... Eagerly waiting for the bride and groom to make an appearance! My three boys with their friend John - and Simon (behind John's hair).

Look Who’s Turning Two!

Today Elena turns two! She’s pretty sweet, so I’m pretty sure that the “Terrible Twos” doesn’t yet apply to her. Recently, she’s really started to grow up into one of “the kids” rather than merely being “the baby.” She loves to play with all of her siblings, but Phinehas especially has become a favorite companion lately. It’s the age old story – she laughs at his jokes, so he dotes on her. They all do, really. She’s speaking in sentences, though not everybody can understand them! “I donwanna go to bed” is a frequently repeated phrase. “Daddy’s home!” and “Phinny crying!” are other examples. She is enthralled with dogs and babies these days. When we were in Tri-Cities and my brother and sister-in-law brought their 6 month old over she was very insistent that she “Hold the baby!” She didn’t want to stop. She’s also completely fascinated by their dog, Zorro. Alas, the poor child, the first of my children not to be completely terrified of dogs, is also the only one who is allergic to th
