Global Impact Celebration


Each year our church-The Family Church has a conference for all of the missions our church supports-locally and also around the world. It is a great weekend for our church.
We had a Village Day, in where all of our family groups took a region and decorated a room and had missionaries from that region come and be the special guests. For our family group we had Haiti. We had lots of fun decorating a Sunday school room and turning it into a "little piece of Haiti." Below are a few pictures of the weekend.
This year we had a special treat. A good friend of ours that used to live in Gainesville was in town this weekend- Christen Buman. She and her husband were a part of our Family Group before Sarah was born. We miss them so very much.
Also to add to the decorations for our room we had live chickens. Sarah was fascinated by them. Sarah loved going up to the cage and just staring at them.
Here is a cute picture of Sarah and her buddy Evie.

Sweet Valentine's

On Valentine's Day weekend we went to Jacksonville to see Jenny's parents. We played with our cousins Ethan & Parker, went shopping, spent lots of time with Yia Yia & Papa, went to church, and had lunch at San Jose Country Club. Just wanted to share a few pictures of the weekend.
Sarah loves playing with her cousins Ethan & Parker. Sarah & Parker are buddies. They do everything together. We try and come back to Jacksonville as much as we can for them to play and be together.

Valentine's Day night Yia Yia & Papa baby-sat and let Karl & I go out to dinner. These are some pictures of Sarah playing trains. Sarah growing up with boy cousins, she has learned to love trains. Yia Yia has a array of trains and tracks to play with. Yia Yia uses her formal dining room table as the train table the majority of the time.
