Happy Birthday Lauren!

We love you and hope you have a great day!

Happy Easter!

I thought our Easter picture would be a sweet picture of the girls in matching outfits and Jonathan and I dressed to the nines. Instead, we have me in pjs and the girls in whatever we could find around. On Saturday before Easter, I got the flu so I stayed home from all the Easter festivities. A sweet friend took Anna Kate to the Easter egg hunt at church and Jenna stayed home with Mommy. I managed to put our ham in the oven to warm so our Easter dinner became a very simple affair. Maybe next year we will get the pic we wanted!

Our lifegroup multiplication

This past Tuesday, our lifegroup celebrated a multiplication! We grew so big that our one turned into two. What a great picture of what God is doing among us!

Vacation

We recently got to take a family vacation to Palm Springs and stay at a fabulous resort! Anna Kate loved the pool and playing in the hotel room. Jenna Grace sat in her little float in the water and enjoyed floating around like a little water baby! Jonathan and I got some good relaxing time away from phone and email with our two precious gals.

Daddy Dates

Anna Kate and Daddy have gotten to spend some great time together recently. They love going to the zoo and getting frozen yogurt. Anna also loves coming along with her Dad to Home Depot...what a great little helper!

Trip to Mexico

We enjoyed our mission trip to Tijuana, Mexico! Jonathan worked closely with Marco (pictured below), a pastor at a local church. The girls loved the hotel room and Anna fell in love with a big green froggie (person dressed up) who made some cameos at our outreaches to attract the local children. We saw many people come to Christ and encounter God's presence in a new way. What a powerful time south of the border!
