Here's the gang. I am just so proud of them for their great attitudes and willingness to walk in obedience and to trust us and God in what He was asking of us.

Siblings but better yet, such close friends. This is not a pose. This is who they really are, still.

Aaron had fun here, appearing to be encaged.

My second beauty.

If there is love to be shared you can bet you will find Isaac around eager to participate.

Just a cool shot of Zach on a swing.

Such a cool dude.

Even with the biggest change in their lifetime ahead of them there was still "a bounce" in their step.

Much concentration on this little man's face as he was throwing rocks into the water. Boy did he need a hair cut. It amazes me how I didn't see that at the time....or I did and it wasn't high priority.



No matter who is together there is love between these kids. I shake my head in awe, truly.

Isaac manages to find some fun ways to hang around.

Now this is funny. In a park on the outskirts of McFarland there is what we refer to as "the spinny chair." It must be all about the angle but what seems to be simply a crooked seat is something that will make anyone spin to the point of immense dizziness. Hannah is first to give it a try.

I thought she was faking it so I had to give it a try. I too fell prey to dizziness.

I tried desperately not to show it. Fail!

Even big daddy couldn't win against this chair. Love this!

Here are the kids for one last picture before leaving the park. All I can say is that these guys amaze me and bless me time and time again. So proud of them.
