Has it really been almost two months?
Before I get started, I'd like to warn/apologize...this will be a picture-less post. I have way too much to update on let alone trying to upload pictures for everything.
So what's up with us? Well, let's see...
- José started taking classes again with Denise as his teacher
- Ángel got braces after having 4 teeth pulled
- Daniel is no longer with us
- Isaac got a new roommate
- EDDY!
- Beni is fulfilling all his responsibilities as a two-year-old complete with a fierce desire for independence (minus the ability to communicate) which leads to many a temper tantrum
- Soraya (who is now 5 1/2 months old) cut her first two teeth and has started eating solid (well, pureed) foods
- Mack has enjoyed spending time chasing squirrels, stray dogs, jackrabbits, etc.
- Hank has out-grown Mack despite only being 7 months old (he's going to be HUGE)
- WE MOVED!! Praise the Lord!
- Pablo (Zach) moved in with us in the new house
- Today is the first day in months (maybe approaching a year) that we've had internet in our house! :D
More news...
- Grandma and Grandpa Leman came to visit...TWICE
- Uncle Jared came to visit with the Denver work team
- CVE served it's traditional Thanksgiving meal to the people of Magdalena
- All the animals at CVE minus the horse have moved to the "new" homestead
- We killed/butchered 4 sheep, 1 steer and 1 cow...and are enjoying the fruits (meats) of our labors here on the "farm"
- It's COLD outside
- Christmas is almost here and I haven't purchased a single gift (or thought about it for that matter)
- We continue to ask for your prayers as we are ever-learning the depth of hurt our kids have endured.
Thanks for being patient with me. I will hopefully post sooner than two months from now. We love you all!
Blessings.
