Home Improvement

Well, we are finally moved in and.... WE LOVE OUR NEW PLACE!! We thank God everyday for giving us such a wonderful home to live in. We are still not totally unpacked, but we're workin' on it.

Dad and Josiah have been busy helping mom baby proof the new house as you can see by the pic above. Josiah is protecting the cupboard with a hatchet until dad can get in there and secure a clip. Actually this was one of the few moments that I (Cam) was smiling during the process because those darn baby clips didnt fit right with our cupboards!

On another note, our dear friend Grace Chisolm came down to visit us. She enjoyed coming to our early morning church service and catching up with Jen and the boys while dad finished his day at 'work'. Thanks for coming by Grace! We trust the Lord will guide you in the upcoming decisions for your future!

It still feels funny for me to call church my 'work' because we would spend most of our Sundays involved with church stuff anyhow. I thank God for it! Sometimes it feels like I get a three day weekend. There has been a lot of administrative work lately, but all in all it has been a great experience and I have already learned a ton.

Here the boys are fixing up the house again! You can see Josiah is even more helpful with the yard work than he is with the repairs. What a blessing (most of the time- he shows his 'terrible twos at times ;) to have an extra set of hands to assist with the cores.

Another highlight was having our new neighbors cook us up a Mediterranean feast! They were even so kind as to have the dinner at our place so we could stay up while the boys slept. The meal was delicious and the company was even better. Along with John and Melina (the chef) we also had over Richard (our English neighbor) and Lynn from across the street. It was a great time! What a privilege to move into a community where people actually enjoy spending time together!

Finally, last but certainly not least- Jenelle and I (and Jordan...) were able to celebrate our third wedding anniversary down on the San Diego Harbor. It was beautiful. We got to see a stunning sunset over the water from our 19th story room. Plus the hotel messed up our reservations so the sent us up some chocolate strawberries and champagne! Very romantic. We had a wonderful time. And as you can see- I am a blessed man- my wife is even more beautiful now that she was when I married her three years ago! I thank the Lord for his goodness to us. And thank you for all the joy you all send us.

By the way, you guessed it! Those were Cam's 6 year old dreads! Gross...
