Today my little baby girl got a little bit bigger. She got her ears pierced.

The weather here is finally warming up. This afternoon Eric and Faith helped Chris' Mom plant some flowers in her front garden. For their reward, when they heard the chimes of the ice cream man, Grandma bought them some frozen treats. It's fun when Grandma pays.

Highland Park, I grew up playing here. 5501 Four Mile Drive, the house where I grew up.

I bet you did not know that I grew up in Indiana. I was born in Indianapolis and grew up in Kokomo (nothing at all like the Beach Boys song). We are currently traveling throughout my home state, meeting with churches and fellow missionaries. The teams that came and built the playground, the kitchen, and the stage at the Sonshine Center came from this area. We have been reuniting with those missionaries, and we have also been sharing at the churches that sent them. We are being overwhelmed with blessings at every turn.

Today we enjoyed the amazing underground caves of Luray Caverns .

We are enjoying a vacation with Chris' family in Massanutten Resort in Virginia. We spent an entire day in their water park.

This is one of my favorite things to visit in Washington D.C., the Tidal Basin and the Jefferson Memorial during the blooming of the cherry blossoms. The last time we did this was April of 2004: quite a difference four years later: More pictures from this day:
