We live in a very beautiful area and recently took the kids pictures in Wayzata a small picturesque town about 5 minutes away. It's almost like a getaway, and we try to go pretty often.

A little thing in Jack's room...
This house is taking a while to get the way I want it maybe because we are so busy with school! But it's nice to have a project or two in the works for the down times we do have. Here is Jack's room I progress. Still a few more things to do but it's fun so far!
2019 Update
I notice it's been over a year since my last post, and some things have changed while some have stayed the same. God has shown us many things as we are settling in Plymouth and at Fourth Baptist. We initially thought it would maybe be a temporary landing spot, but we are seeing that we actually fit here well. Matt is now a deacon and usher and also co-teaches our adult Bible fellowship class along with signing in the choir. We also love being near our family although with school being so busy, we don't see them as much as we want to. Matt still works for Fedex Freight, and I am now teaching 6th grade at the school which still feels weird to say. I never thought I would teach again; but with the desperate need for a teacher at the school and our financial need coming together, I headed into a new adventure. Again. Adventure is scary. But it can also be exciting, and if you don't move forward in life, nothing would ever happen! So I'm not sure this is a decision for just this year or a life pursuit of teaching, so we will just go with it for now and see what happens. I do know I love those kids, and I have an amazing class.
Jack is in 7th grade and Ava is in 4th grade so new beginnings for our family again!
They keep growing and losing teeth and now are both involved in a musical group called Let the Children Praise. Jack is playing basketball, and Ava is figuring out 4th grade and friends and planning to play the flute when she can be in band next year. She still loves all animals.
This year we hosted our family at Thanksgiving and are thankful we have rented a house that we can settle in until we are ready to buy. It fit us perfectly!
