Life is Good

Life in Julesburg has improved dramatically since our last post. Our insurance problems have been mostly resolved, we are actually getting paid from insurance companies now, and we almost know what we are doing in running this business.

The girls are flourishing here. Amaris started crawling last week. Her amazing daycare provider caught it on video with her cell phone for us! After just one week of practice, she's already crawling all over the place...mostly to chase the dog. Travis is convinced that she can say "dog" but what she is really saying is "Doh." We've got some videos of her saying this and the crawling that some day we will find the time to post.

Sheinah graduated from her level 1 swimming class. She passed everything EXCEPT putting her face in the water. She can ride her bike by herself pretty fast (of course, it has training wheels on). We call her our little brownie because she is getting so tan. She talks like a grown up, talks back, and generally gives us a glimpse of the joys the teenager years hold for us in the future. She did amazing with her cousins while we were gone in Orlando. She didn't get weepy or anything until the very last day...such a big girl.

As mentioned above, we left the girls for the first time for three days to attend a conference in Orlando. It was good for us to figure out how to leave our girls and we got so much done with the business. It was a great trip and everyone survived with only a few tears!

That's all for now. We are so blessed to be here in Julesburg and appreciate your continued prayers as we figure out what we are doing.
