More from this year:

   In February, we had our mother-daughter banquet. This year's special speaker was Mrs. Whitecar, who is now serving with her husband and children as a missionary in Belize.

All of us after the banquet. (to the left is a friend on mine, Rachel)

Mrs. Whitecar and Miranda

The teen group also went around for the yearly food-a-thon and collected thousands of lbs. of food for the church food pantry this year. There are three teams that compete to see who can get the most. This year, Miranda's team was the winner!

This year's college activities included a hayride/bonfire, empowered youth, Christmas lights, volleyball marathon (again, of course), tobogganing (which was so FUN!...and very fast!), ice skating and lunch, and a trip to Turkey Run. Turkey Run is a big state park in Indiana. We went canoeing, jumped into the river with the rope swing, and took a spectacular hike through some of the prettiest scenery in the state! It was an all day trip, and was by far my favorite activity. This year's theme was all sports related, so dad opted out of most of them ;P.

    Jacob, as many of you know, broke his leg during wrestling practice at school. He just went to his last appointment for that (after months of annoying people with his cast :) ) and finally he is good to go!

His cast was camo, so one day he dressed up with me, when I gave a speech to my class about living on an army base:

Notice the 2 goofs in the background! This is Jake's attempt at a "cool" face...lol

I dont have many pictures of college activities at the moment, but here are a couple of the hayride day:

 

Dad has had the opportunity to fill the pulpit in a couple of churches around here lately, which has been a blessing, and we are all doing very well. I will sign off for now, and hopefully have more pictures to show in a few days.

Hey everybody!

 I cant believe it has been so long since I last posted anything. We have moved to our new house and have been without internet for a while, and we have been soooooooo busy that i have never had time to get on campus to work on this, since we had a TON of other things to do. I don't even know where to start! Over spring break i took some pictures of the kids, so here are a few so everyone can see how much they have grown:

He is such a ham!

   I have plenty of blackmail pictures from christmas time, but those along with others will have to wait until another day. :) Just wanted to let everyone know we haven't forgotten, and there will be plenty more pictures and updates in the next week or so!
