Time Delay

It's been awhile, over 3 months, since we last updated the blog.  Why?  So here is the scoop...

We've played hard.

Two kids in soccer, one in travel soccer, resulted in many afternoons on the soccer field.  We had a fabulous fall and it was a ton of fun to watch.

We also had some Halloween fun mixed in, with a Jellyfish and Shrunken doctor roaming about.

We've traveled hard.

Joe's work took him away more over the past few months than the entire year.  He went to such places as the Philippines, Uganda, and Haiti. So very blessed that he is able to work with Training Leaders International (TLI). If you want to know more about his journey, you can follow him here. I also traveled a bit for work, but not to any such exotic locations.

We've worked hard.

Actually, Joe has worked hard in particular.  Here is some of the work-in-progress for the finished basement he completed this fall.  We are LOVING the fireplace in this winter season....even as I write this....right by the fire.

And a little thing called school started....with our first introduction to Middle School...wow.

And we have been busy baking a Bun.

Likely the most obvious (and most exciting) reason for the decreased blog activity is our impending new addition to the family.  Coming late March/early April....

Hopefully not a such a long hiatus will occur next time, although with a little one on the way, there are no promises.  

Merry Christmas to all and a very Happy New Year!
