Braving it with the Boys

Best pirate parrot I've seen yet!

I thought I would water the plants, but Speedie decided to water himself! He pulled on the hose til it he could dose himself.

The boys' expo chickens arrived home on Saturday July 8th and we've been enjoying them ever since.

Sometimes they are so kind and helpful to each other. Instantly enemies...instantly friends...

This little guy is just too cute sometimes!

It is officially rainy season...glorious wind and pounding rain blowing up every couple days.

The boys with their Joy Camp buddies, Mitchell Lanz, Scott Kieser and Brecken Beyer.

Pizza is a great bucket filler!

Play at golden hour!

The dedicated police man who patrolled my house yesterday.


Well, Marce arrived home last night and we were all very excited to see her. Thank you to all who prayed for my two weeks without her. Please continue to pray that we will have a smooth transition back to "normal" life.

I am very thankful for God's faithfulness these past two weeks. There was a lot of ugly (stress, disrespect, weariness, tantrums) and a lot of beautiful (moments of connection, joy, delight, peace in the midst of difficulty). And there is hope even for the ugly because God makes all things beautiful in his time! 

"Now unto him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen." Ephesians 3:20-21
