A Few Random Things

Joylin saw this idea on the internet and it was a huge hit! 
Peaches, apple, and raspberry pies.

Let me tell you they didn't last long!
Uriah turned 3 this month! :)
The boys went fishing with Justin one weekend and the caught a total of 76 lbs of fish!
Joshua and his catfish that weighed a whopping 28 lbs!  
Least to say, he was very proud of that fish! :)

Adorableness!
One day while we were picking berries, Judah was slowly destroying a bowl full of them! 

His, "sorry Grandma face". =)
A rainbow Joylin and I saw one day on milk drop.
Micah and Uriah love to help weigh and package the eggs.
They can be quite silly at times! :)
That grin though!
Jubilee thought it would be fun to draw "mustaches" on herself....
.... And Uriah.
A piglet that needed a little extra loving care.

Memories from Camp

A few weeks ago Joylin and I got to attend the same camp as the boys, Still Waters.
The vacation was so nice and as always Still Waters was a life changing experience! ;)
We felt so privileged to be able to go, as I know that many others where on the waiting list and didn't get in. If you would like to see more pictures go to Still Waters.

So many people ask us, "How was camp?" It's hard to describe! Still Waters Camp is definitely a little piece of heaven here on this earth. A place where you can go and spend a time with friends that all believe the same Message and love the Lord. There is such a sweet atmosphere there, it makes it really hard to leave. You can feel it the minute you walk into camp and it stays with you! Leaving all your worries outside and just enjoy the blessings of the Lord is so relaxing and refreshing! He's right there talking to you in Quiet Time, guiding you through activities and everything you do. It really is something that every young person should be able to experience! We had an amazing time and are looking forward to going back next year, Lord willing! :)

The excitement was so high as they opened the gate and we all stepped into the welcome center. Camp has been on hold because of construction for the last two years, so when we walked in it was amazing to see how many changes had been made since the last camps.
And there we are. Can you find Joylin and me? There was 180 young people total and we already knew so many of them from former camps. It was really nice to get to see everyone and catch up where we last left off. :)










The new chapel was so amazing and the lake was just as beautiful as always!

We were gone for about 10 days, and with the milk drops and all  everyone was kept so busy at home! :) 
Jenny and Mom, (with a "helper") on milk drop. :)
While we were gone this little man began walking! 
The boys jumped in and helped with all the work. :)
