away

Any time you have a chance to go on vacation with six precious girls, take it.  Lots of coffee.  Don't call it rest or think you're gonna sit down.  Maybe don't do it at 35 weeks pregnant.

  But take it.  They are so precious, and watching them together and listening in is a blast. 

Yesterday we celebrated Sofie, and today went to the water park, and I am happy exhausted.  This time is such a precious gift.  Williamsburg is beautiful, the weather has been fabulous, and I'm thankful.

Aunt Lisa took another Sofie detailed crayon birthday cake design and turned it into reality, complete with seven rainbow stripes, four layers, and a stand up name :) 

I love this crew.

Thankful thankful for His provision of this quiet place of our own (the tenth place Nora is calling, "my new house") for a few days in the middle of this wild season!  

On what feels like the other end of the earth, EBS's first summer team has headed out, the EBS team is getting ready for the next one, a team of guys is installing new inverters, preparing for new batteries, there is a master's class happening this week with Charles Lake and David Long...it's been BUSY!  So thankful for the crew facilitating it all so we could be away!
