HALF MARATHON!

Well, I thought that everyone should know that Thomas has been training to run in the Vienna half marathon since January. He seems ready and I'm so proud of him!!! The goal he set back in January seemed a little daunting because those of you who know Thomas..... well like he puts it, "If I'm going to run, there had better be a goal to kick a ball into." So, I'm proud to say that he has trained and can run a half marathon!! YEA!
The Marathon will take place this Sunday and he'll be running with a few other VCS staff. Take some time to send a message encouraging him and check out the website for this awesome event. http://www.vienna-marathon.com/

Easter! He is Risen Indeed!

Here's a look at our sweet little boy all dressed up for church. He's quite a cutie! We had such a wonderful Sunday morning service complete with testimonials of the HOPE we have in Christ. Aren't we grateful for the death of Jesus Christ to free us from our sins and His resurrection which gives us new life!? In Him, we can have life and truly live for His glory through His power! He is risen Indeed!



Well, there they are.... all Four of them! :)
Thad and his friends just finished their egg hunt!


Now Thad is chowing down on all the chocolate!

Spring Break

We were able to go to an eagle show at a castle outside the city. It was such fun and the birds literally flew right over our heads, even hitting some people with their wings! Thad thought it was great and kept saying "bird" during the show. There were all kinds of birds from eagles to owls to a massive bird with a wingspan of 6 ft. ( I can't remember its name) But we had fun and wanted to share the unique experience with you!



He's huge!

We've had a wonderful and relaxing Spring break during this first week of April. There are so many things to do before the baby comes and we accomplished a whole lot! The Lord gave us some great family time and also some alone time... Matt & Stephanie, fellow missionaries here, gave us the best present this past week by taking Thad for an overnight stay so Thomas and I could get some things done and just spend some much needed time together! It was a refreshing week and we're thankful for the rest God has given us.
