Some Exciting Family Times!

Trish and I celebrated 10 years of marriage (5/18/1997) last weekend. We enjoyed a great overnight away at a beautiful state park lodge on Lake Erie. It was the first time in over a year we had been away together without the kids. We enjoyed being together, remembering all that God has done and brought us through in 10 years of marriage, God's creation, and some needed R&R. Praise God! I'm so thankful for the wife God has given me and the children and work He's blessed us to build together.


Last Sunday, we also had the special privilege of being interviewed in the service at the Woodville (Mansfield, OH) Grace Brethren Church. As, Trish's dad interviewed me, we were able to share about what God is doing in the church plant and encourage people to pray with us for God's continued work. We very much enjoyed spending the day with Trish's parents, connecting with Pastor Ron Smalls, and the sweet people of the Woodville GBC.

A special time yesterday- Seth came home from his last day of pre-school with his first report card! He did well and his teacher commended him for how well he did despite all the changes that have occurred in his life this year (he started at this school mid-year in February). We praise God for Seth and how well he has come through all the changes we have made! Great job, buddy! We celebrated with some great ice-cream at a Columbus favorite, Greaters!
