Life in Withrow

Yes, we have snow. Yes, it's cold. Yes, we are half an hour from civilization. But these things have their perks. It's quiet here, and peaceful. The boys seem to be settling a bit and we are back to a somewhat normal routine. At least as normal as we get!

Ryan's enjoying his work, our churches are better than we could have hoped for. It's great to work with people who love their church and are passionate about Christ. Liam and Jude have charmed everyone, though not because they have always been on their best behavior! They are making friends and enjoying the snow here very much. Well, at least Liam enjoys the snow. Jude isn't sure what to make if it and is terrified of sledding (maybe next year he'll like it more!).

Sorry we've been MIA for a bit, it's been so busy since we moved. Here are a few pictures of life here.

Moving Day Approaches

For those who haven't heard yet, Ryan is finishing up his MDiv here at Andrews in a few weeks, and we are officially joining the Brewster and Chelan churches in January. We are very excited. We are also still in the process of discovering how exactly that move is going to take place, so prayers are appreciated.

The leaves are turning, and falling.

Hi again from Autumn in Michigan. This is most certainly my favorite time of year. The sun still shines most days, but it's not hot. The leaves are brilliant colors, and the air has an unmistakable crisp to it.

Jude has a new tooth, that makes five, and is about the celebrate his first birthday along with Sean's 27th on Wednesday. We're planning a small gathering on Saturday afternoon for Jude, lunch and cupcakes (pumpkin) after church.

For those who have inquired, I've updated the boy's "wish lists" on Amazon for upcoming Christmas and birthdays. Of course, you don't need to buy anything for them, but if you want to here are some ideas.

Click here for Liam. Here for Jude. 

And, of course, here are some photos to enjoy. Click HERE.

September in Michigan

Jude laughing at Mommy
The leaves are already starting to turn, the temperatures are in the 70s during the day, and that means it's my favorite time of year again! Ah, Autumn. Love it! It also means that we only have a few short months left in Michigan before we head west again. And before you ask, let me just say "no, I don't know where we are moving yet."

Ryan has started running as a hobby, he ran his first 5K last week, and the boys and I came to cheer for him. I took a couple pictures (link below).

The boys are growing at an alarming rate. Liam is wearing a size 9 shoe now. I think that's a normal size, for a four-year-old. Jude is about to turn 1 and I can hardly believe it. He took his first steps this last week from me to Liam. It was darling. Liam was cheering for him. I wished I'd had it on video to share.

I've uploaded some more photos for everyone, because I know you love to see the little men. Click HERE.
