In Loving Memory of...

Today is the Memorial Service for one of our dearest friends in California. We wish we could be there but we know that the family knows we are there in spirit. Sara Caputo will be missed by many including myself and my family. She was an incredible example of faith and love and we were blessed to have known her.

We Love YOU Sara Caputto! God be with you till we meet again!!!

A Day to be Remembered

Today we had the opportunity to attend the baptism of our friends/neighbors. This family took the missionary discussions in our home and attended church with us. When they committed to be baptized it was so wonderful to see the transformation that took place in their lives. Our family has grown to love them and we are so greatful for the opportunity of being a part of their lives.
Kennady, Zachary, and Cameron were baptized today. James, Coty, & Barbie will be baptized in September.

Cinderella Marionette Show

Once again we went to the Nashville Public Library to see the "Cinderella" marionette show. This was definitely the best marionette show I have seen them perform. If we get a chance I would love to go see it again.

The girls wanted to use the camera to take pictures so the below pictures were taken by them...

Another visit to one of our top 10 places to go

Now that we live in Tennessee I am very thankful for indoor play places. The weather has actually not been too bad but their have definitely been days when the humidity has been high. I think swimming ranks top of the list of summer things but "Jump Zone" is definitly one of the top 10 places we love to go during the summer!

Robyn & Carly having fun with Jason

don't they look cute...if only they got along this good all the time :) They both are the youngest and Jonathan definitely gets jealous of Jason when I hold him.
