Wow time has flown by!

Well when I started this blog it was with all intentions of keeping up with it, but since Titus has been born things have been super hectic. Titus is now 6 months old and sitting up and almost crawling. Grace is reading in English and Spanish! It is so amazing to see her read in both languages. She is doing so well in school. And Taylor, well she is as always Taylor. The latest episode is that she painted the rug in our bedroom and the bed with face paint. She did all of this in about 5 min. Don't get me wrong she is very sweet and this has actually been the first thing she has done like this for a long time.
So, this is an update and start of me getting back on my blog!! Hopefully, I can do a little bit better at keeping up now!

it's been a long time

Well, I know it's been a long time since I've been on my blog, but since I last posted something a lot has gone on. We finished our family conference and Titus was born, mine and Kevin's moms visited us and Titus is now one month old. Things have calmed down a little bit so hopefully I'll be on here blogging more!

Thank you to my babies!


I'm sure that my girls will probably never see this blog but I just wanted to say thank you to Grace and Taylor! I was so proud of them on Tuesday night we were getting ready for our family conference, cleaning the church, practicing music, ect.... Both girls literally cleaned for 3 hours. They helped sweep, clean the nursery, the bathrooms and the seats! Neither one of them complained. We got home at 11pm and they both got a bath and went to bed. I'm an adult and I was about to fall over I can't imagine being 5 and 3 and doing all of that and still be happy! So, thank you to my two babies! You are so precious to me!

Great food, Great time, Wonderful Friends








Living in another country, especially where they speak another language, can sometimes leave you really missing home. Thankfully, here in Bolivia, the Lord has given me some great English speaking friends. Some are from the United States, some are from Canada and some are from Europe. Well, these wonderful friends gave me a baby shower two weeks ago. We had a great time of fellowship, wonderful food, fun opening gifts, and of course time to "practice" our English lol! Thank you to all my wonderful friends!!!

Days Gone By!






              washing dishes just one of the many jobs, and the water fights we got into were so fun!

                                                             the gang outside the canteen! 

I worked a the best summer camp for three summers of my life. I can honestly say that those three summers were some of the best times of my life! It was a lot of work but so much fun. I will never forget the people I worked with and made great friends with. Keep in mind that I was 17 in these pictures! It is crazy to think that 12 years have passed by.

A little bit of paint, a few brushes and strokes, and this is what you get!







Well, after several weeks of painting, drawing, and more painting we have finally finished the baby's room. I'd like to thank my husband for all his hard work in painting and my friend jennie for drawing everything. I'm so excited because this is the first time that I have been able to do a nursery for any of our children. When Grace was born we lived in a one bedroom apartment, so no decorating there, and when Taylor was born we were just 4 months away from leaving Peru, so I didn't do too much in her room. So, this was a huge task but I really think that Titus will like his room at least his mommy does! I'm still waiting on the curtains so, when we get them up and the crib ready I'll put more pictures up. Let me know what you think!!
