Packing Up and Moving Out

We are officially in the last days of our current assignment with the Nazarene Border Initiative and Youth In Mission.  A rush of varied emotions sweeps over us as we prepare for this new road that the Lord is taking us down.  From finding a new home for our dogs to handing over our responsibilities in our current ministry and from saying goodbye to dear friends to carefully sorting and packing our house, we have experienced it all.  We will miss our lives here in El Paso, but will cling to the stories of God's faithfulness that we could never forget.  At the same time, we look forward to new challenges and the opportunity to prove the faithfulness of the Lord a thousand times over.

No, I couldn't lift them all at the same time!

30th Birthday vacation

All the way back in September of 2011, we found a Groupon deal for a week long vacation in Acapulco, Mexico. So, for Jill's 30th birthday we celebrated in paradise. From June 23-June 30 Jill's parents and youngest sister Emily as well as Gavin's parents were able to spend a week of relaxation and family time together. Here are a few photos from our week!
