Family Update

We are so thankful that all four of the kids are growing and thriving! Each day is SO full around here, with noise, food, dirt and baby kisses! Asa is just about done with his first soccer season. He loved playing so much and we look forward to doing it again next year. We’re thankful […]

So what does Rachel do all day?

So what does Rachel do all day?

I feel like I do a zillion different little things all day, but I'll simplify so you can get the general gist. I'm supposed to get up and run or walk first thing in the morning. I say "supposed to" because often I choose to sleep longer instead.

Sunny Skys and Apple Salad

If you were here in Southern Colorado, and you looked out the window, you would never guess that we’re supposed to get a snow storm tonight. It’s nearly sixty degrees today and I love it. So I celebrated this reminder that spring is coming by going to Panera bread for lunch. Now we’re on a […]

Waiting Still

Waiting Still

I’m feeling impatient. I was just browsing (in other words snooping) around some old friends blogs. Now the reason this is making me feel impatient is because all of these friends are from bible school. All of their blogs reflect their ministy with New Tribes Mission and the exciting things that come along with a life speant in overseas missions.
