Shame on Me! It's been almost a year!



Shame on me for not keeping this blog updated.  For some reason it has become work for me instead of fun, and I have enough work to do already!!  But for those who are far away and want to know what is happening in our lives, or want to see how the kids are growing, here is pictorial update.
First, we went to Oregon last summer.  It was wonderful to see family and explore the beauty of the area.
We spent a somewhat rainy day at the coast.  This is us in Newport.
We are eating at Mo's- a locally famous seafood place on the ocean blvd in Newport.  David used to go here as a kid!




Keenan by the beautifully rugged coastline.
One fun thing we got to do in Oregon is to play with cousins!  Here Silas is with 2 of the crew!
Abby receiving an AWANA award from Grandma.  She memorized hundreds of verses to qualify for the award.  Rachel also received an important AWANA award while we were in Oregon.
Silas turned 6.
Rachel turned 16 in October!  IT has been a big year for her!  Lots of new experiences!  We celebrated her birthday with a big scavenger hunt and game night.
 



Abby celebrated her 14th birthday with a the camping party she never got to have the year Nathanael was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes!

 We took fun pictures under the ginkgo tree at Asbury Seminary.  It is a favorite picture spot for many.  We got there as it was getting dark, but did it anyway for fear they would rake up all the lovely golden leaves before we could make it back!





Keenan got a dog in late summer!  He had been asking for one for years and saving his money!  He has done a great job being a pet owner!
Keenan las got to play basketball for the first time and LOVED it!


December is Keenan's birthday month!
















 Here are a few from Christmas.





We got 2 really big snows this year, each 12 in. or more.  Here Micah is trying to dig out his bike!

Easter Sunday!  Sarah is out for a stroll in her car.  And below having fun with her basket of eggs! 


The boys playing ball.

I'll post more of the past couple of months soon.  And I really do mean soon! :)
