Our life in a nut shell

For those who are wondering here are some facts on our life right now:

*Still no jobs (aside from the occasional haircut/color and swim lesson or worship leading)

*Still living with parents (most days are great but sometimes we just want a place of our own)

*Still no church home (we are going where God tells us each Sunday and it seems to always be different!)

*Yes we are happy to be back (of course we wish for different circumstances but we are so happy to be with friends and family again)

*No we aren't depressed or anxious because the Lord is completely taking care of us and is showing up in BIG ways like never before (seriously folks, pray BIG because God answers BIG and fast it seems!)

*I can't speak for the rest of my family but I have never felt closer to God and right now He has called me to be a servant in full time ministry wherever I go, wherever He leads me aka: gym, internet, salon, restaurant, etc.

I close with this: God will never let you down, will always be there for you, has a great plan for you, wants you to talk to him, WILL TALK BACK, you can hear from God, He loves you, He believes in you, He is good, you were created for His purpose and plan, draw near to Him and He will draw near to you!

Nash

Cute, loveable, destructive, strategic...NASH!

Brothers

Kai and Nash get along pretty well. Basically Kai gives Nash whatever he wants! Kai is tenderhearted and and very compassionate. He doesn't like when Nash gets in trouble and always comes to his defense. Nash on the other hand likes to hit, kick, and scream until he gets his way. He loves his brother but Kai seems to get hurt alot from Nash. If we tell Nash to say sorry he goes over to Kai and hugs him.

Soccer

Kai joined a soccer training class every Friday in May. He LOVES it and always tells us he won. Here's some cute pictures: (notice all our family watching Kai)

Life on the lake

Of course we would really like to be living on our own but tell me, how could you NOT enjoy this??

Sleeping

I promise to have some pictures soon. I'm not feeling motivated to upload them.

Lately Nash has been waking up about two times a night screaming softie(because he wants you to take his blanet and pick him up) or bb, bb, bb (pacifier) because he dropped the five I gave him when I laid him down! I am so tired of going in there but I let him cry he will just wake Kai up so I go in there hold him or give him a bb and then leave. That's all he wants.

Kai on the other hand has been having nightmares and a horrible cough. Last night I was so worried because he was in tears and having a hard time breathing. It's hard to watch your child struggle to breath and not know if I should take him to the ER. We survived though and he seems fine during the day today. He told me I just need to ask God to take his cough away. :)

All in all the sharing a room situation has gone pretty well.
