Father's Day Weekend

While Phil and I spent 3 days in Denver attending the Christian Home Educators of Colorado Conference, Wayne and Sandy held down the fort in Casper. They graciously agreed to come to Casper and take care of the "Fab Five" so we could get away for some time of renewal and refreshment.

For those of you that may be wondering why we are attending a homeschool conference, we have been pondering and praying about this for some time. Our plan (as of now) is to begin educating Allie at home in the fall. This is for many various reasons. Primarily, we are very excited about being able to give her a solid Biblical worldview so that she is better equipped to serve Christ, witness to others and to obey His Word.

We haven't decided exactly when, but most likely we will gradually add the other kids as well.

The conference was exceptional, and we came back with VERY full brains and a passion in our hearts. It was so much more than homeschooling. It was centered on discipleship. We feel really good about some curriculum we found, and I am ready to begin purposeful planning in the next few weeks. Allie is also very excited and ready to be at home more hours each day. Watch for a new blog to be launched this fall, featuring reports and updates from Allie, as she begins this new adventure.

While we were in Colorado, we went to a Colorado Rockies game. More interesting than the game was the game 4 gentlemen seated beside us were playing. Especially amusing was the victory dance one of the more elderly men did as he won the pot of money on a home run.



While we were enjoying our time away, Grandma and Grandpa were living the high life! Yeah right.....

We're not sure if they told all the secrets, but the kids had a great time and the house was still standing when we returned.

Thanks, Wayne and Sandy - we really appreciate it!



I came home to sweet Savannah and green toenails. Aren't they precious?!

On Sunday, we celebrated Father's Day at church with a pancake breakfast. Pastor Jack finished up his series on Daniel with a wonderful message. Then after a quick picture and lunch, Allie took off to Camp Grace for a week.
