Quixtar Headquarters in Ada, MI

The Product Education department for the Quixtar Corporation asked me to learn some new material to diversify my bilingual training opportunities, and Bibi wanted to meet some of the translators she's been working with on her contract work translating for the Quixtar Corporation. So we took a trip out to Ada, MI, from July 18-20.


Here I am in the main lobby of the Quixtar building.

We also took a tour of the Alticor World Headquarters building. What an incredible legacy the De Vos and Van Andel families have left. It was awesome to see the history of how two men overcame so many challenges and stayed true to their vision.

Arms, legs and a cute little Butt...

The doctor's visit today was so cool... what an awesome feelings of responsability to see a tiny little person growing in Bibi's tummy.

As you can see in the picture, we could see the beginnings of the little person our baby will grow up to be. It's amazing that at 10 weeks, a baby already has defined arms and legs. The little umbilical cord is already its life-line.

The coolest part of the visit happened after the doctor left the room.

I (Jeremy) started playing around with the ultrasound machine scrolling through some of the saved images of our baby, and I found this perfect picture of our baby's little butt!


I think this is the cutest ultasound picture I've ever seen (of course I'm also partial). I carry a copy of this picture in my wallet and I catch myself looking at it when I'm alone.

What a great responsability to raise the future of our country, society and world. I'm glad God will be guiding us in the process.

Bibi's Parents visit


We were happy to have Bibi's parents visiting from Argentina from June 13 to July 7. We are able to tell them in person that Bibi is pregnant which was very special.

Just before they left, we all went out the General Conference Session of the Seventh Day Adventist Church is St. Louis, MO, over the 4th of July weekend.

They had a great time attending musical concerts, Bible studies and listening to some of the best preachers in our world-wide church.

The flight into St. Louis wasn't very good for Bibi, so we just took it really easy. Posted by Picasa
