Wow..i am literally awful at this! This is going to be my new years goal to become a consistent blogger! We are just soooo busy!!! Anyone who is a youth pastor knows that their family is just as busy as they are! So Levi is crawling like speed racer and is walking around holding on to everything and in everything! We think he is going to walk soon..So pray for us! Its a workout trying to keep him out of everything! He is so fun though and has such a fun personality. He loves people and is most content if someone is entertaining him..so he loves church! Jon is staying really busy and the youth group is growing in the right direction..its been really neat to see! We are going towards a family ministry and really getting parents involved and i have been able to start teaching a small group which i love! Here are some picts of Levi!

Wow, i appologize on behalf of my lack of blog! I am sure i will one day be really good at this, but for now your just going to have to put up with my being bad at it! So today Levi is half a year old! He has traveled much and grown much since our last blog! At his 5 month check up he was 19 pounds and 6 ounces, so we estimate hes getting close to 21 pounds or so. Jon's younger brother Michael got married fathers day weekend and Levi said "mama" that same weekend. He tends to say it when hes whinning and wants me, but i dont know if he thinks..mama means milk or me, either way im both things! He has also started to crawl..or push with his toes , but hes figured out that he no longer has to roll to get places ..just full speed ahead..well as fast as he can go right now. Jon is about to go to Middle school camp...and My sister, Levi and I are flying to Florida so the grandparents can get their Levi fix! Continue to pray for the ministry at Fellowship Community Church, both as a whole and the youth ministry! Jon is doing a great job, but we are starting to try and balance our time, ect.. Its a challenge, but we love being here! Here are some picts of Levi and some of his counsins as well!. I dont have picts from the wedding downloaded yet, so i will put them up later
