Let's Catch Up

 
 
 
Okay, so where were we?  I think we'll go back to March when we had my sister, her hubby, and two oldest girls visit us over spring break, and then in June, Kurt's parents came to Haiti for a week and took the kids home to IL with them, and then Kurt and I came to the States about a week and a half later to join them for our summer furlough!  So many sweet memories and fun times!  We were thankful to feel refreshed and energized at the end of our furlough time.  Thanks to all of you who encouraged us through your many acts of love.
  
 
 Brenna was super excited to have Val & Naomi here!
 
 We're always so encouraged by special visitors!
 
Reg speared a lionfish.
 
 Special sis time.  Thanks Jean!
 
Can you believe what you're seeing?!?  It's true!!  Joy and Derek brought us Uncle Bob's ice cream all the way from Eureka to Bonne Fin Haiti!  So, so yummy!  (if you're planning to visit us I'm sure Joy and D can tell you how to pack it in your suitcase and get it here without melting:))
 
We like to visit Woodley at the hospital.
 
 
Lots of speed Uno games with Grandma and Grandpa.
 

Brenna wishes this was her puppy, but it was just our neighbor for a little while.

Reggie got his permit and was driving all summer in IL!  EEK!  He loved it!
 

Lots of fun shopping:)



Food, food, and more food!                                        Hard to beat Burger Barge!                            

 We enjoyed several "campouts" at Grandma and Grandpa P's timber in July!

 Reggie tries to keep a line wet as often as he can! Longnose gar from Walnut Creek!

Good times with M and M!  Martha Washington style:)

Loved my day out with my friend, Amb!  Biking, eating, talking!

My little Rosie!

 Enjoyed catching up with the Kups on furlough!
 
The boys helped Grandpa unload hay bales on a super hot day! 
 

Warmed my heart to hang out with this girly!

Thankful for the time we spent with Zimms!

Fun vacation to MI with the Roths.  Perfect day to spend at Warren Dunes State Park. 
The girls all got matching swim suits!

Many hours spent at Leman's Last Resort!  Thanks U.Scott and A. Phyll!
 


A successful morning squirrel hunt in early August with Grandpa W!  Hadley & Toby each got their first squirrels ever!
