Our Anniversary



Happy Anniversary to us!!!!!



On August 17, 2008 we celebrated 6 years of wonderful marrital bliss.


I love you babe and i pray the next 6 years are as wonderful as the first.

New Bridge





We saw this really awesome bridge while we were in Cuyahoga falls it was a new one. We thought that is looked like it should have been in Rome on somewhere like that. It was really pretty. So we took some pictures of each other. We didn't want Gracie to stand on the road so we didn't get her to come out of the van to take our picture together.

Old buildings




As we were driving we saw some really awesome old buildings. I took these pictures that i thought were really neat. The buildings were really cool.

Deer!!!





We went to Cuyahoga Falls on Sunday night. If you go to the right neighborhood you see all these deer come out at night. You can see how close they get to the houses and cars. The one deer came all the way up to the edge of the road and ate an apple slice that we had thrown out of the window for it. Towards the end of our journey we found one in a field and wanted it to come and eat from us but we didn't have any more apples so we threw out a potato chip. The deer looked at us a little funny but we tried. We drove on a few feet and as soon as we were driving it came running to the road to see what we had dropped out. It ate the potato chip. It looked really funny to see a deer eating a chip.

Bathroom Renovation

Before
After

For those of you who care we did a major bathroom renovation. We painted our ugly stripped bathroom purle. A wonderful solid color of purple. It is so solum and serine and peaceful. I love it and Chriss loves it. Needless to say we kicked the kids out. They will mow be in the red bathroom. No more messes in my bathroom. Bliss!!!!

Wilderness Center






Last Sunday evening we went to the Wilderness Center in Wilmot for an evening stroll. It was really neat. We couldn't go inside but we did have a lot of fun walking the trails. The girls loved it. we walked back the one trail and they had a tower for us to climb up it was 3 sets of steps and then just a flat landing with a railing around it. We pulled out our picnic and ate. The girls loved to run from one end of the tower to the other and then they climbed the stairs a few times to.

Mission Trip!!!



Here are a few snaps of when we were in West Virginia. We had an awesome time, Its amazing how God can work when you are away from the husssle and bussle of everday life. And how fast it can slip away again when you return home. Its been great to be home with the kids again but I long for that close time that i had with God when we were down there. I am having struggles finding that time here at home again.


We had tons of fun in WV. Our group bonded like i never thought that they would. It was great to see everyone work together and be a very close family. When we were there it was like were were alll sisters and brothers. We prayed together, worshiped together, cryed together and were just very up close and personal. It was great. I challenge anyone to go on a mission trip, not for them but for you and your group.

Socks



I don't know why but Keri has this sock fettish. When she finds a pair of socks, usually Chriss, she always puts them on. They come up past her knees, and she always has the heal sticking out somewhere. It looks really cute.
