Summer Shuffle 2009

When people ask what our kids are doing this summer, they start to get a glazed look in their eyes when I explain. So I will attempt to explain as clearly as possible where everyone is.

We are spread out this summer in small groups, except for Christina who is by herself down in Ames, IA. She'll transfer her worldly possessions to our basement in August and stay here for a month before heading to Spain in the fall to study abroad.


Kiah and Erica are counseling at Camp Shetek which is in the southwest corner of Minnesota. I like this picture of Kiah. She works pretty hard during the year so it does my heart good to see her playing. She's the short girl in the front row getting ready to clobber the ball.


I love this picture of Kiah and Erica. One, they're together. Two, it looks like they're getting along, and Three, the one sister is helping the other out. I lifed these two photos off a Facebook page of one of Kiah's friends. Isn't modern technology a wonder?


Andrew and Anna are at Village Creek Bible Camp which is in the northeast corner of Iowa. Andrew is program director for the summer.


Anna helps with family camp and wherever they need her.


Meanwhile, Amy and Lani are enjoying having their parents all to themselves for the first time in their lives. They play well together for the most part.


Sigh! Summer is half over. I feel a hiking trip coming on.
