All Done!

Today we had to be at the hospital for Amelia's surgery by 6:30AM and believe it or not, we were home by 11:00AM. The surgery went really well, and Amelia is doing great. She, of course, was a little uncomfortable after the surgery, but with a little pain medicine, she's been her same old happy self. She's a little sleepier than normal, but that's to be expected. The problem has been taken care of, and prayerfully, that's Amelia's last surgery. Thank you to all of you for your prayers for Amelia.

Baptism

Last weekend, we had our first baptism service. It was such a joy to see new Christians making a public display of their faith. We cried in rejoicing with them (or should I say, I and many of the girls cried!). What a day!!!

Watershed in the Community

Our church, Watershed, is really trying to find ways we can become more and involved in the community. This summer, there are lots of events that we are helping our with. This is one event we did last weekend where we provided inflatable games. It was a huge success! The kids loved it (and so did the parents!).

First Time

The first time Amelia had juice, she didn't really like it. She made a "yuck" face and spit it out. The first time she had a banana...that was a different story! The first time Amelia brushed her teeth, all she wanted to was chew on the toothbrush.

Strongman Competition

In Grandview, we had a Strongman's Competition. Our family went to watch all these big guys lifting unbelievable amounts of weight. Zeke had a lot of fun playing.
