Well, life is busy as usual around here. We began school in August and are using a curriculum this year that is keeping mommy sane. The kids are in several activities. Jakob and Audrey are in a weekly home school group with extra enrichment opportunities. We have done a three week horse club, show and tells, a field trip to the apple orchard, and that was just the first month. I didn't get a picture of Jakob on Dolly, but this was his favorite horse. They all rode, as well as on a cart pulled by a pony.
Audrey has joined American Heritage Girls which is similar to girl scouts but is Christian based. She is pretty shy there and we are working on making friends. Jakob will begin wheelchair basketball in October. We are excited to see how he will do in this sport as it is more competitive than his tennis experience. Katherine is mostly along for the ride at his point, but joins in as much as possible.
Mike and I are still busy with church life. The men's group he is leading meets at Gander Mountain, what more could a guy ask for? Our ladies group starts tomorrow night. Pray that both of these ministries deepen relationships for our church.
Overall we are enjoying life but missing our friends and family far away. We hope our new blog helps close the gap of distance a bit for us all!
