Our 6th Anniversary--July 10th

I'm holding 6 roses to symbolize our 6 years of marriage. Praise God for that!

They built a new mall, which is really nice, especially since it includes TGIFridays! What a special treat.

We thought it would be funny to wear the hats from the waitresses for a picture.

Luke, at 6 weeks, was very peaceful in the sling while we enjoyed a slow lunch date. Good job, Luke!

Even when he woke up to eat, he was just a joy. I love my babies!

Later at home, Nate was chillin' with Luke. Luke, a little man, in his little outfit (almost too small now!)

Handsome little man in his little outfit. I'm melting with love (and actually with sweat as I type in mid-day with no fans).

Malachi and his friend, Whitaker, were playing together, along with Elijah and our friends. We got to meet back up later that evening after our lovely time together. Cute boys!

Part of my gift to Nate was to attempt to play ultimate frisbee with the group. I had not been running for quite some time, so I need to get in shape again! Whew! What a work-out. This is true love for my true friend.

The boys want to be men like their Papa. This is just classic "boys being boys" moments!

Praise God for our marriage. Pray for us to keep growing in Christ together and as a family.

4th of July in the Philippines

Here's our patriotic family of 5 on 4th of July.

That night we had friends over and played "Pin the star on the flag" (in the spirit of "pin the tail on the donkey"). Papa gives the boys a demo.

Malachi peeks to see that he missed the flag.

Elijah is playing with the blindfold...a little too high buddy.

Elijah woke up during a thunderstorm and then discovered that Luke was cozy in Mama and Papa's bed. He joined in the cuddles with his little brother. Percious love!
