The Latest...

Hello to one and all. This summer sure seems to be flying by - literally. I can't get over how quickly things are going along.

We have made the most of the summer we have had so far. Janine and Kevin learned how to BOOGIE BOARD!!! What a hoot!! I'll gladly go again ANYTIME!! Soaked up the rays while they have been out and filled out a lot of paperwork!

Yes, that's right - paperwork. We have decided to apply for our Greencards here in the States. We went for our physicals today (all four of us) and Kevin and I are now known as human pin cushions! Well, that's what is feels like. But we all survived. Actually, the kids did GREAT, especially Alex. Please pray that these Greencard applications will be accepted for all of us. I think that's our biggest concern right now. We know that we can only leave it in the Lord's hands so we are asking our friends and family to remember us as well.

We also have listed our townhouse in Cloverdale. We had come to that decision a few weeks ago and then it became a necessity. So, something else that we are asking prayer for. We know that God has brought us this far and is leading us through this too. All part of the process. So, if you know anyone looking for a great townhouse, let us know. :)

Otherwise, we are all well. Alex has discovered that cutting his own hair can be quite exciting until Mom and Dad find out!!!! And Chelsie is enjoying learning how to 'build' things at summer camp. (She made a bedside stool/table last week - even used power tools! Cool!!)

Kevin has been very busy still at work. I'm always impressed at what he is learning and how quickly he adapts. He'll be at more training at the beginning of August and then in September too. Busy guy!

As for me, I've been just trying to keep myself busy. Always little projects going on.

Hope you are all well. We are VERY excited about coming to Vancouver in 3 1/2 weeks!! YEAH!!
