Spring Break @ HOME!

After a long 3 months of traveling, it sure was nice to be able to get home, relax, and enjoy our own beds, all the toys we left behind, and cooking all our favorite foods! We always love getting back to our church, and during this break, we got to help with our church's annual youth conference! It was a busy time, but a good time!  Here are some photos of what life was like during our spring break at home :)

 

David enjoyed helping me make chocolate chip cookies for our youth conference!

Jonathan, now 8 months old, is always so smiley :)

The epic set design for the stage at our youth conference!

We were honored to have Hershel 'Woody' Williams speak to the 1,000 or so people at the conference one night.  He is the last living Marine Medal of Honor recipient alive from WWII! 

Talk about "COURAGEOUS"!!!

Caleb and the guest preachers singing "Soldiers Again"

Just because we're a few (ahem) years older than these teens doesn't mean we can't participate with as much craziness and vigor to win a prize for our team....free McDonald's cheeseburgers! 

(L to R: Charity Brown (our pastor's wife), Rachel Wyatt (missionary Jerry Wyatt's wife), 

and yours truly (the evangelist's wife/teenager at <3)

We enjoyed the opportunities we had to have friends from church over! 

We got to enjoy a fun double date with our good friends, John and Cassie Woodward!

We did leave home for a little over a week for a meeting in MO and a meeting in KS.

Here, Caleb is preaching the Sunday services at Agape Baptist Church...he also preached every day to the boys of the Agape Boarding School (home to around 200 boys with troubled pasts).

I had the neat opportunity to teach one day in the Girls' Home!

That Saturday, Caleb preached and we sang for a big youth rally at Harvest Baptist Church in Manhattan, KS!

David with one of his new friends Sunday night after church!  I love seeing him make friends...he is not shy, and has usually made one or two buddies by the time the day is over :)

We went home for a few more days before heading out for our busy 3-month summer tour.  

One night, the sweet Bontrager family had us over for dinner!

The boys had a blast playing outside!

Too much sweetness, I almost can't take it :)

I love this shot! The sun setting, the farm/garden in the background and beautiful Liz and Rebecca!
