Gordos

Hands down, our favorite local place to eat!  Great food, easy to handle the many allergies and we love supporting local businesses! 

                                         After church fun!  Having everyone together is a blast!

           Love that we get number 22 so often.  Think they know that is our favorite!   Didn't realize I                                                           captured it in this photo!





                                                 Someone from church joins our craziness.

                                                                    Yummy food, eat up!
 

Easter

Easter is such a beautiful time of year to celebrate and remember what Christ did for us.  He gave so much so that we can live this life free! 

 

                               One of my favorite spring flowers and we have a bounty of them growing.


                                   Seems our crowd gets smaller but so grateful for each of them! 

 

Having Sime Fun

Some days it is only me with the younger three.  We do home projects, go swimming, to the beach, hiking or find some other adventure.  Today it was a bike ride out on the rail trails.  We stopped to catch our breath...wait, my breath and snap some fun photos!

Eli’s Alert Basic Training


Eli loved the adventure that Alert Basic Training offered.  It challenged him in new ways.  He realized the benefit of hard work, team work and overcoming hard things.  I love that the men of Alert loved on him in his struggles, challenged him to do better and cheered him on when he needed it.



Darrell flew with Eli and brought him to school.  It is always hard saying goodbye but knew this was his time.

A family gathering is always a lot of work but also a super blessing!  Working together and enjoying the fruits of our labors.  Isn't it beautiful?


                        Sweet memories and everyone put their own little touches on our meal!
