Happy New Year!

Happy new year!  We are starting a blog in order to stay in touch better, as we are a busy people!  We saw how fast Alayna put her blog into action and what a blessing it is to those of us who miss her and want to see what God is doing in her life as often as possible, so we thought it would be good to do the same for her and a few other of our loved ones!  We hope to share the true picture of our lives here and the regular goings-on and hopefully, to encourage in the Lord.  To God be the glory!    

Today Doug, Evan, and Bo have gone golfing in Daytona with PaPa.  The rest of the children, except Alayna who is in Haiti, are home having a regular day, which hasn't been routine so far.  They are out in the kitchen right now feasting on grapefruit which they picked yesterday from our gracious neighbor's grove (Mr. Lombardy).    They are getting over a cold, and are hoping to go swimming at the hotel their grandparents are staying at in Daytona tomorrow.
