A little over two weeks ago we had a sweet little German woman from our branch pass away. Chris was her home teacher and always took Caleb with him to see Sis. Kehaya. After every visit, Sis. Kehaya gave them chocolate to bring home. You can imagine Caleb was more than willing to take her [...]

We had scheduled over a week ago to go strawberry picking today with a friend. The weather was supposed to be wet and rainy but when the threat of thunderstorms was removed from the forecast, we figured there wasn’t much to fear so we took off anyway. We had rain on the way and on [...]

When Caleb was put on the gymnastics team almost a year ago, we all became fast friends with the other two boys and their families in his level. Both the boys and their families attended Caleb’s baptism in January and we all came together again this last weekend to support Zachary for his First Communion. [...]
