Jardín Botánico

We had a great time exploring the botanical gardens with our friends!

17 years and going strong!

Yesterday was our 17th wedding anniversary. We are in a tough season of trials around us but, thankfully, strength within our home. Grateful for each other, riding out the waves of life together.

A few years ago I posted a photo summary of our years together, now I need to post a few more to bring it up-to-date.

Family Day

This fun day for us was bookended with illness - we've been taking turns being down for a day or two with a stomach bug. I think we're all done! In any case, it was nice to get away from it all at a local park together.

 

Dorothy and Robyn's Visit

 We had a ton of fun hosting my friends from California and they were a blessing to us!

(who wants to visit next?)

 touring downtown and Monserrate

 some of us got plenty of driving practice!

 

Roadtrip to Villa de Leyva:

they got a few cute pics of our boy!
