23!

 Celebrating 23 years with my best friend! This life has been one adventure after another, and I’m thankful God gave us each other so we can go through it together. ❤️

Happy Birthday!

 Happy birthday to our amazing son-in-law, Daniel! We hope you have a wonderful day! ❤️

From the Camera Roll...

 U. Russ, Vickie, and Rachael are currently in Ethiopia. They got to visit some very special people in Gambella and sent us photos! 🧡

I'm loving all the gorgeous spring colors!

Quintin got to ride in the tractor with Ashton:

J and J are having a fantastic track season. Jalen recently broke the school record for the high jump, even though he hadn't even practiced high jump at all this year. He usually does pole vault, but it was too windy that day so they put him on high jump. He blew everyone out of the water. 😄

We've begun the pool preparation process. We had to dig out more ground since this pool is much larger than our last one. 

We took the kids to see The Lion King Broadway play in Toledo, and ate sushi for Daniel's upcoming birthday beforehand. Good food and a great show!

Darci moved back from Ethiopia after her 3-month internship. Please pray for her transition.

And last but not least, a cute little report that Quintin did all by himself!

April…

 Easter!

Jalen and Jordan enjoyed visiting the Ark Encounter with their LifeWise class.

Chris had to go to Cleveland for work, so I rode along. While he had meetings, I drove down and spent time with David and Larisa. We took a long walk around the nature preserve, and David made me fancy coffee. It was a great time and I’m so glad I was able to see them again! 

Gorgeous spring colors around the yard:

We booked Malia’s senior trip for next May…a cruise that starts in Athens, Greece and ends in Venice, Italy. She’s so excited! 

Recent Stuff...

 Chris has been traveling every week for work, so we haven't seen very much of each other lately. Neither of us likes the situation, but he did have fun taking customers on a fishing trip in Louisiana recently. And now our freezer is stocked with fish!

Quintin enjoyed his school carnival:

Jalen and Jordan's school got first place in their first track meet against 2 other schools:

Jalen's vo-ag class got their picture taken on Drive-Your-Tractor-to-School Day:

St. Patrick's Day fun by Mr. Q:

We enjoyed an Easter play: Journey - the Story of the Blood. It was amazing!
