We enjoyed a July 4th Bar-be-Que and swim at Ben & Heather’s house. Carl, Beth and Anya also joined us. It was a beautiful and relaxing day in Rocky Ford!
Happy birthday to Kaylee! (June 30) She is so full of joy, giggles and smiles! In July the family also celebrated Tate & Kimberly’s anniversary, Jon’s birthday, Nick & Rachel’s anniversary, Anya’s birthday, and Lorree’s birthday! We had a full month of family love and celebrations!
Gary and Wanda came to visit us at Glen Eyrie. We had a great picnic lunch and toured the campus – including the castle. It was great to get together and get caught up with each other!
Carl, Beth, and Anya traveled to Michigan for a vacation and to see Anya’s cousins! They had a great time together. We loved these pictures they passed around the family.
Anya threw a big birthday party and invited lots of friends and family for her First Birthday! She shared her beautiful smiles and those big blue eyes with everyone – we all felt the love! Love you Anya – Happy Birthday!
She wasn’t too sure at first….then Mommy put a taste in her mouth. She LOVED her first birthday cake – so much fun!
…and of course the presents! Anya really had fun opening the gifts and was full of big smiles! (I think Jayden and Issac wanted in on the presents too – LOL!)
Nick & Rachel and the kids came over to Glen Eyrie for a day trip. We hiked the “Lady Bug” trail and enjoyed a cookout together. We also toured the campus – the kiddos loved riding in the open 6-seater golf cart. It was a sunshiny fun day!
These are just some of the random pictures we get from our Family Chat group – its a joy to have a constant connection with all of our kids and grandkids – much love!!
“Happy Birthday Nana!” For Lorree’s birthday, Anya and her parents took her out to eat at a favorite Mexican restaurant. It was a wonderful time together!
Probably the most significantly-shocking event this month was seeing Megan off to college – did I just type that? Another milestone in her life (and ours!) Megan is at Faith Baptist Bible College in Iowa studying, Biblical counseling and Office Administration. Praying for a great year for her!
Corny mirror picture, but its fun to look back and re-live all these memories and adventures – hard to believe this was just one month!
Now, we’re running into the next adventure fast – SELAH! (Find out about this in our next post!)
