New Season

After 10 years of faithfully keeping up with this blog, I've decide to discontinue using this as a means to share pictures and updates on our family.  BlogSpot was finicky the last several times I posted, which resulted in me spending way too much time trying to get everything loaded and formatted.  And to be honest, this is no longer an enjoyable way for me to share.  What used to be a hobby is no longer that.

If you don't already follow me on Instagram, find me there!  While I don't post nearly as many pictures there as I did on this blog, it's the avenue I use most frequently to share photos.

And just for nostalgia...

Our family when I first started blogging:

And us now...

Summer Spectacular 2018 - AMPED!

After months of preparation, Summer Spectacular 2018 has come and gone.  It was an amazing week filled with a lot of energy, fun, and most importantly - over 200 kids kids learning how to meet, know and follow Jesus.  We also raised just over $2600 for Global Surge in the Philippines!  Caleb was a student helper for a 2nd grade boys' group and rocked his role.  Meredith and Shane were both "campers", and Norah spent the mornings doing all sorts of fun stuff in "Mini-Camp".  

Here are a handful of snapshots from the week....I didn't get a ton of pics, although if you'd like to see more, check out Sun Valley Community Church - Queen Creek on Facebook!
