The gang at Glacier Point on Sabbath afternoon

Swimming & Yosemite Fun

We all hit the pool before our short trip for a fun Yosemite weekend along with the Pierson gang, Gortons & Trujillos

Sabbath morning at the cabin. Thank you Chris & Andee for a great weekend enjoying your family cabin!

Surprisingly cool evening, perfect for making lasting memories together with Jan Nelson. She did an exceptional job and was very patient with the girls. You can see more family pics at: www.janiphotography.com/blog/

Meeting Shylah Laine Pierson!

On Monday, July 19th (close to midnight) we were finally able to meet our sweet niece Shylah Laine here in Visalia! It was awesome to play with her for a few minutes as she got settled in shortly after arriving home from the airport. She's a beautiful blessing!

Mitchell Webb turned 1!

On Sunday, July 18th, we were honored to help Mitchell celebrate his first eventful year. Many family members and friends gathered and it was a fun afternoon for all of us. Happy Birthday Mitchell!

Jeremy's FIRST ever sermon at our church - lunch celebration

Our budding little librarian is crazy about reading, which makes Mami very proud!

On July 17th, Jer preached his first sermon at Visalia SDA on Community Service. Afterwards, family & friends gathered to enjoy good Mediterranean food and even better company. We all had a great time!
Thank you A&A, Millers, Andersons, Elicks & Buits!

July Highlights Recap ... we've got a really long ways to go!

One of the fun things we did at the beginning of July. The girls sat side to side for some fun hairstyling. Lauchi did great, never a peep. Brianna, like a royal princess, chatted up her stylist and found plenty of topics to discuss.

Mateo's birthday and the Soccer World Cup

Mateo turned 4 at Chuck E. Cheese on June 27th! Brianna, Kiara and the rest of the gang loved to celebrate with him!

Kiara, in soccer World Cup mood (Argentina smashed Mexico 3-1 that day!) Unfortunately it was to be the last victory. The following Sunday, we suffered a massacre in an unfortunate game against Germany: 4-0

Kiara is a budding reader. Mommy and Lauchi read up t 10 books a day!

Our girls in June

More beautiful than ever and growing like little weeds!
