Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all you dads out there, especially my dad and my husband! I'm so lucky and Sam's so lucky to have such men of faith and love in our lives. Sam absolutely adores his dad and I can see why. Julio has such patience and grace!

So today I'm thanking God for the fathers in my life!

Training and equipping

Julio and I participated in a 10 day intensive training and equipping event with the Evangelical Covenant Church. It was part of our training for getting ready to go back to Colombia and serve with the church there.

Memorial Day Weekend

Three day weekends are wonderful!!! This past one was no exception. We had some great family time! There was time to play and time to rest, as well as time to get some projects done that I had on my list. Saturday was our major play day. We went downtown in the morning and met our friends Bruce and Carol, who took Sam and Julio out on their sailboat. Sam often remembers going on Bruce's boat last year and was a little in shock when he found out he would get to go on it again. He was very excited about the life jacket and about the donuts Bruce brought along. The weather was perfect, so since the doctor advised me not to go on the boat (don't know why), I just pulled out my chair and lounged by the shore. It was heavenly.





After the boys got done with their boat ride we walked over to Millenium Park for a little picnic. Seriously, such a great day!
