We have been back form BZ for 6 months now. My do I miss it. Mostly the dear people we know down there. I pray we may be able to see them again soon. I praise the Lord for allowing us to go down as a family. It was an amazing experience indeed! I wouldn't trade it for anything... The Lord is so faithful and good! He has taught me SO much over the past year. Thank you Jesus for having us go to Belize... and if it be your will, please let us go back again soon!
We are all doing well... Very busy and well, BUSY! :) So much has happened since we came back it is amazing. A huge praise report is that Mandy is doing SO much better! The Lord drastically healed her from her exhaustion in April... She also found out that when she eats wheat it really affects her heart. She still deals with a few flare ups once in a while. Thank you so much for all of your prayers and support. Praise the Lord.... He is the Great Physician indeed!
When we first returned back, I started working for a local cleaning business with some friends. It has been a blessing learning to clean, to submit and to be humbled! :) Our boss Kathy has been such a wonderful teacher. All the girls I have worked with are so sweet and fun to work with. Two of them are very good friends of mine. This is my last week working though. It was such a great experience for 5 1/2 months! So many memories! Cleaning 8,000 sq ft houses to 800 sq ft houses! From very clean houses to VERY DIRTY houses!! These are some fond memories and I will miss everyone at Home Maid Cleaning!
Everyone is getting so big. The little girls are getting bigger every time I see them... Grant is growing like and weed and Ryan... Well, let's just say he is WAY taller then I am! I feel like a little shrimp next to him. He is 14... How tall will he be at 18?! :O
While here, I have acquired a very wonderful dog! Zoey my Standard Poodle is just the funniest thing ever.... It has been fun working with and training her. The man we bought her from was so kind in letting us have her for a very good price... Thank you C for letting us have Zoe! :)
Here are some pictures from over the past few months.... Enjoy! :)

Our dear friends and neighbors to the King's allowed us to milk two of their goats for the summer. It was such a blast! Mandy and I had such an enjoyable time with those hilarious goats.... And wow.... The milk was SO good! Thank you Graves!

In August, my sweet friend Katie was married! Katie and I have been friends for about 7 1/2 years now. It has been a blessing having her as a friend and growing in the Lord together.

We had a very nice company picnic at Mayfield Lake. It was a sweet time to visit and share stories! After a very delicious lunch, we all went on a nature walk to the lake. Praise the Lord for such beautiful weather! Even Zoey and their dog Rena had a nice tome together. :)
Some dear friends Susanna and Sydnee
Until next time!
