Summer 2009

Hello,
It has been along time since we have updated everyone, but we have been busy with camp. We just finished our four weeks of camp. It was an awesome summer of camp!!! There were 11 kids who accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. It is so amazing to see how the Lord convicts people of their sin and makes them realize that they need a Savior, who is Jesus Christ. He died for our sins and rose again on the third day. It is so comforting to know that we will be with Him some day in heaven. What peace He gives. We also are very humbled that He would choose to use us in His plan. We are merely vessels for Him, what an amazing thing.

Brian stayed busy with the teenagers who come to volunteer for the summer. He was their leader, which is such a blessing but can also be a challenge. He is also the Archery instructor, which he absolutely loves. It is one of his hobbies. He helped with games, dishes, and much more. I worked in the kitchen for the four weeks, which I really enjoy. I love cooking!! But I do miss getting to know the campers better.

Abigail had her 2nd birthday on July 24th, which is hard to believe. Time flies. She is so cute. She is beginning to put words together and is such a joy to us. She continues to make us laugh. She is learning her colors,loves the sand box and chocolate. She is funny because she is learning young that boys have cooties because she says Colby Yuck!!! She said it all on her own and it was hilarious. One day I decided that Abigail and I would get our swim suits on and play with some water balloons. We filled them up and then went over to the deck. I threw one up into the air and it broke. She didn't like that. She kept looking at it and saying broke. She looked so distressed. I thought she would love it, but it took her awhile. The balloons were actually regular balloons so they were harder to pop so she would throw them around on the deck and they would bounce all over. She loved that. It was fun!!!!

I went in to the doctor for my 5 month checkup and we are excited to announce that we are expecting a BOY!!! That will be so much fun. He is healthy and doing great. I have began to feel him moving around in there, it is so amazing!! He is suppose to come around December 17th. Praise the Lord!!1
