Our other family

We have another family, other than the ones I've shown on my blog so far. It's our small group family. We've been with some of these couples for 12 years now & some for less than a year. But we are a family. Sometimes we have to work at it, but God has called us to be part of the Body of Christ, so we're trying. During the Summer, we meet socially since it's more difficult to meet consistently. Once a month we get together as couples only, once as complete families, and once as guys/gals separately. It's been a fun Summer! The following are photos from our last whole families social. We met at a local park & played.

Here are 12 of our 13 small group kids, ranging from almost 11 years old (Lizzie) to a 6 week old (not pictured)! Believe me, this was one of about 6 or 7 shots - trying to get 12 kids to look at the camera was no small feat! :)

Here are all 5 small group couples, ranging from, oh never mind,
you don't need to know how old we are!

I love static electricity slide hair!

My good friend, Amy, and her son, Andrew, recently HOME from Russia. Our small group was privileged to walk alongside their family in their 10-month journey to bring Andrew home.

This week we're back to our regular Sunday night Bible studies. I think we're all ready to see each other more consistently. The Lord has blessed Tim & me with this amazing group of people to share our lives with! We love & appreciate you guys. :)
