Our Journeys in February

In February, we were in New Mexico, all over Texas, Florida, and Alabama!  It was a busy month and went by fast! (doesn't it always, though? only 28 days...)  Anyway, God was good to us in keeping us busy, giving us safety, blessing our meetings and allowing us to meet new friends, see old friends, and enjoy fellowshipping with fellow believers all across these states!  Here are a handful of photos from the month...we don't always get pictures at every church or event, but we've tried to capture as much of the action as possible.  So ignore the gaps, and just enjoy reviewing our adventures in February! 


On February 3, we were at Gospel Light Baptist Church with Pastor Lenintine in New Mexico.
David in his Sunday Best - excited to go to church!
Caleb preaching at GLBC
"This Evangelism stuff wears me out!"
The next week, we had the chance to stop in for a night of Missions Conference at Bro. Ross' church - Open Door Baptist Church - in Mesquite, TX!  It was great to see them again (he performed our wedding - they are like adopted parents to Caleb!).  And they loved meeting David!
We got to help decorate for a Valentine's Banquet at Bible Baptist in Pampa, TX!
It was fun getting to help and the banquet was wonderful!
David, too busy flirting with the ladies to pay attention to the book Mrs. Esther Cantrell was reading!
David showing off a new skill - sucking on his toes!! ;)
Common occurrence - all the ladies in the church gathered around David!  He is very loved!
We enjoyed our time at Fellowship Baptist Church in Spearman, TX with Pastor Phillip Hudson and his family!
David loves learning about technology with Daddy :)
Chillin' with Momma in the car after a feeding
We borrowed a bumbo seat from the church nursery and David really enjoyed it!
From Feb. 21-23, we enjoyed an exciting "Back to the Basics" Bible Conference at Trinity Baptist Church in Texas City, TX.  Caleb and Bro. Marc Johnson (left) were the guest speakers.  Pastor Hector Rodriguez (center) was a great host for this conference!
We sang a lot those few days :)
Sunday, Feb. 24th was a God-and-Country day at TBC
We enjoyed getting to be with our dear friends, the Rodriguez' (they moved from Washington, IA to TX at the same time we moved to Iowa and God worked out every detail in such a miraculous way - we ended up buying their house!)
David, Hector Jr. and Brianna with our little David :)
We had a couple off days from Feb. 25-27, so on our way from TX to Alabama, we stopped in for a visit to Pensacola Christian College (where I went for a year and a half).  They also produce the ABeka homeschool curriculum and DVD's that Caleb used from K-12th grade.  
I had a few friends still there (now grad students!) - including 2 of my roommates, Chelsea West and Jess Wadland!  Hard to believe all that has changed in my life since those days at PCC!
They enjoyed getting to meet Caleb and David!
With Jess (who was my best friend while at PCC.....and still is!) and another friend from childhood who is now a student there, Monica Marshall.  I hadn't seen Monica in 8 or 9 years!  So good to see her again and see how God has been leading her life!
We went to chapel
Sweet friends!  Jess, Candace, Monica and her sister, Jessica :)
Such a fun 2-day walk down memory lane!
