Catching up

So my goal of keeping the blog updated regularly has, thus far, not been successful. Nevertheless, I figured instead of trying to post a huge book of what has happened in the last 5 months since our move from Iowa to Washington, I would just post some of pictures.

A quick update before the pictures - Life has been good since the move. There have been a lot of adjustments for our family, but overall things have been good. My job is great, weekends have been enjoyable with us always finding fun things to do together. The girls are growing like crazy, especially Victoria! It's amazing how fast the time goes by, and she is almost 8 months old! We were a little undecided about what church we wanted to be a part of, but we finally decided to go to the Mars Hill Federal Way campus, as that really is the church that fits us best here.

So here are some pictures.. I will try to post more frequently. :) - Matt
