Summer 2011
We had an awesome oppotunity to host 2 men from China. Andrew, 27 and Lionel, 19. They stayed for 2 weeks at our home. This was their first time out of their home country. It was such a privelge for us to get to know them and serve them.
Elijah turned ONE!!!! What a great reason to celebrate. We are so thankful to have this little boy in our lives. Raising him has taught us so much. It is pretty cool to experience that parent-to-child bond. It has been such a tool for opening our eyes and hearts to how God is in a parental relationship with us! Amazing!
We just bought a home in Victorville, CA! Such a blessing : )
The process was so quick and smooth-it had to be from the hand of God.
The time it took to put in an offer and actually close escrow was approximately 3 weeks!

We have to do some cleaning and preparing the home a little before moving in, so it may be another couple months before we're ready, but the house projects should be pretty fun. Can't wait to get started!
We made it to our 2nd year WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
We made it to our 2nd year WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
Because September 5th landed on Labor Day this year, we decided to celebrate yesterday (09-04-11.) We had a great time in Los Angeles. Picked up a beautiful replica (vegan version) of the top tear of our wedding cake, we had a lovely dinner at PlanetRaw in Santa Monica, and ended the evening at Long Beach with a romantic moon lit Gondala cruise through the canals of Naples Islands.
