Summer Update

Hello blogging family! Sorry about the long silence . .. we have had a very busy summer, and my computer is upstairs in the finished attic that gets REALLY hot during the summer. So, I barely check email, much less blog. Tonight I am enjoying some Olympics using Aaron's laptop to finally post.

We do actually have some newsworthy items:

1. Aaron has finished 2/3 of the ordination exam process, with the final oral exams and sermon taking place next Saturday! Please keep praying for him as he prepares for this final phase.


2. We sold our duplex and are buying a new home, hopefully moving in next Monday! It has much more space, and is single-family (this is a first for us in our married life)!


3. Walker can swim like a fish -- really! I can sit on the pool lounge chair reading a magazine while he swims across the pool, jumps off the diving board, and slides down the slide (no floaties!). He has many diving skills that are not portrayed on this video, including the "pencil," "cannonball," and his favorite, "flip."


4. Sophie June can crawl, pull up, play patti-cake and peek-a-boo, and say, "mama."
So, we are having a great time, trying to stay cool, and definitely staying busy! When everything settles down, we will post again from our air-conditioned computer desk with pics of the ordination, new pad, and probably Sophie June's birthday.

That was a fun video. Congrats to Aaron and to both of y'all for your new house.

Hey, y'all. Welcome back to the blogosphere. Thanks for all the updates. It does seem like you have had a good summer. We'll be praying for 1/3 of Arron's ordination. Let's see. 1/3 of a prayer. "Dear Lord, please be with Aaron as he." It somehow feels a little abrupt. Oh well.
