52 Weeks is a year long challenge for YOU to be in a picture once a week for 52 weeks. We are always the ones behind the camera, this is YOUR chance to get out in front and be in the pictures with your family. I love this challenge because I will have, at least, 52 pictures of me with my kids, all from one year!

It was just starting to get cool. And, it did get cold and it's August :)

We had a bonfire at Bolsa Chica State Beach, this week, with our friends from church. It was so awesome!

Wordless Wednesday- love of us & the beach

One Very Special Event & Catalina, cont.

Our Catalina trip is the highlight of our summer. Our friends are wonderful, the weather never fails us (no matter if its sunny or cloudy), the animal life always amazes us and we always get to experience the love we have for each other. The days are not overshadowed by what we have to take care of or where we have to go. No phones, no t.v.'s, no radios. Everything we do we enjoy. Who could ask for more?

A Joyous Baptism

Corey, Olivia, Brady, Jacob, Luke and Cameron all were baptized today.

Our family is very proud of Jacob"s and Brady's choices to follow Jesus. We, as parents, are so thankful!

Us with Grandma

Our lives are so blessed. We know that all that we are and all that we have is because the Lord has blessed us with it. It's hard to always live humbly and holy, that is why we need Jesus. We are so thankful to be forgiven.
