Pumpkin Patch

Last week we took the kids to a pumpkin patch down in Zillah. We went to Jones farm. They have a maze and a ton of pumpkins. The kids loved it.

First Day In The Boat

So Michael took his first boat ride this last week. We took a few days before me leaving for St. Louis and went to the river. Faith did her first cannon ball in the pool. Hope is enjoying having "holding your breath" contests, and Michael loves the pool. Of course Kala wimped out and would get in the toasty hot Columbia River. Maybe next time we will just throw her in.

10 Year Reunion

This last weekend was one of the most incredible expereinces I have ever had. I had my 10 year reunion from high school. I graduated from a class of 25 people. Of those 25, 17 made it back to Yakima for the reunion. We had dinner Friday night at El Porton. Saturday we had a picnic lunch at Franklin Park and then a formal dinner at the school. We played a trivia game about our days in high school. One of the questions was asking who the homecoming prince was our Junior year. At my table we answered that it was Josh Klocke. I was convinced. Well...it was me. Ok I am an idiot. But that's the way it goes. Any how it was great. I am already looking forward to my 20 year. Except I will be old and fatter. Oh well. It was amazing seeing everyone and I can't wait to see them again.

Stipe's Vow Renewal

Tonight Jana & JJ renewed their vows at Randal Park. Today was their 5th anniversary. JJ put this whole thing together to surprise Jana on their anniversary, and she was certainly surprised. It was a great night and I think it will be a very strong anchor in their marriage. Following the cerimony we had a potluck with all other people that attended. There was a great turn out of about 40-50 people for tonight.

Following potluck we were cleaning up and Hope followed Jordan into the sprinklers that had just turned on. She had a dress on and they ran through the sprinkler forever. Hope found it to be fun to have the sprinkler spray directly into her butt. Then Jordan wasnt able to keep his wet shorts up for he was running around with his shorts at his ankles. It was a fun night.

The Last 3 Months

OK so I decided to give up internet for a month. During that month Michael William was born on March 26. It has taken 2 months after the month off to get back into some of the stuff. Well, we are back at it now. Life is transitioning great with the new little boy. I have got plenty of sleep. Kala on the other hand...

Gettin Close

So Faith and Hope are loving the idea of a baby brother. Today we went and registered and I think we got a lot of unnecessary things because Faith and Hope were in charge of the clicker thingy. We are about 32 weeks. Kala is praying that this kid comes in about 5 weeks. Keep your fingers crossed. Oh...there still isn't a name.

First Timer

Ok so I don't think there is anyone in the world that cares about our life, but I thought I would do this blog thing anyway. So check back frequently for info regarding our life, new baby, ministry, or whatever.
