Allen and Christina Moore

Some friends from our lives in Denton, TX during college days came through Austin this last week and it was refreshing to see them again! They came with gifts for all! Thank you so much, Allen and Christina! Hope the rest of your vacation and thanksgiving was wonderful!  It was great to see you!

Neal is moving next door with Christel soon to come!

Our dear neighbor, Susie, is one of our favorite neighbors who the kids love...but she recently bought a house way south and needed to rent out her house next to us.  She asked us specifically to find her some of our friends to rent it.  We were so excited to find out that Neal and Christel needed a place to live in after they get married in January 09....so finally, Neal is moved in as of yesterday and Christel will soon come in January!  We are so excited to live next door to them and continue living life here in St. Johns with them.  They both have a heart for our neighborhood and are like family to our kids.  Neal and Christel, we love you guys and are so thankful to have you next door!! 

Highlights fromt the Birthday Party!

These are a few weeks late, but here are some pics of WesleyGrant's Incredible Birthday party!  It was freezing cold...but our friends indured the cold with us to celebrate!  We had a great time and love all of our friends and family here in Austin!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WESLEY GRANT!!!!

Today WesleyGrant is 4 years old!! We have a tradition of happy face pancakes on the morning of our birthdays and this morning wesley grant just wanted a waffle with a candle...he is getting quite an opinion the older he gets...=)....then it was off to Anna's Toy Depot to pick out his birthday gift. My kids love that place! He had fun playing in the store and with the owner and finally we were off with superhero figures and a Knight armor kit. Then it was off to eat lunch at Whole Foods (yes, wg loves that place...but it also went well with stew's new diet!...will blog later) and enjoyed some good food! Tomorrow is the big birthday cake party with friends and neighbors...pictures to come! HAPPY BIRTHDAY WESLEY GRANT! you are SO LOVED!!

The Fulfers

We had the privilege of hosting some friends from Argentina this week! They are American, but have been serving in Argentina for the past 2 years. It was wonderful to see them and meet their kids! They got to share with some college students and friends of ours while they were here. It was such a joy!

Vacation with Friends

We just returned from a relaxing time with friends. We were all without kids, except for Karis. (There is 12 kids between all of us!) We love the team we work with here in the city of Austin and they are slowly turning into our family. We had a wonderful time and are ready to hit the ground running again.

Fall Festival!

Between school parties and fall festivals in austin, we had a fun day of games and eating candy!
