Elainah's 10th Birthday!

Elainah has entered the double digits!

She loves making crafts, so she chose to have a birthday party at Jen's Pottery Den.

Her friends enjoyed painting figurines of their choice.

Can you guess how many Gumballs or Sour Watermelon are in the jar?

Another one of the games was this fun packing tape/bubble wrap ball of presents... If you spun a 1 or 10 you got to unwrap as fast as you could and keep all the prizes you unwrapped until the next person spun a 1 or 10!

Everyone LOVES root beer floats, right?

Happy Birthday Elainah!
WE LOVE YOU!!!!

Hiking in the Beautiful Mountains of Arizona

We stayed a few days after the wedding. (Yes, I know I'm JUST posting this!) 

And usually when we're in Arizona we go hiking. (Doesn't everyone?)

We went up to the Cochise Strong Holds where the great Apache Chief, Cochise, hid with his warriors, while they continued to raid.

It was a beautiful day for a hike.

It's a very enjoyable hike with a non strenuous trail.

We hiked to the half moon tank that is a little over 2 miles. You can hike all the way across the Strong Holds which is approximately 8 miles long. 

Chantel, Grace, Amelia, and Abigail (not pictured) stayed with Kaitlyn over the wedding. I'm sure they had a wonderful time, as they are all 20 and have been friends since they were children!

A Life Remembered

A dear friend, brother, husband, and Dad went home to be in the arms of Jesus where he will be waiting for us to join him. Brother Harry Shultz passed away quietly while listening to his greatest joy, The Message of the Hour.

In 2012 we were blessed to have the Schultz stay with us for a couple weeks.

They found a special place in our hearts right away!

We love you Sister Shultz, and our prayers are with you.
