graduation weekend!

I have just returned with my brother from 10 wonderful days visiting matt, stacey, and lily in haiti. there is so much i could say and i hope to post a few pics from our beautiful and refreshing time together. but before that, i have to post from my dad's graduation!

we had a great weekend of being together as a family, which is a rare thing these days! both ben and james got done with finals and headed home to celebrate all the hard work my dad has done to earn his masters is marriage and family therapy. i know sometimes he thought the end would never come, but it did and we are proud of him! we had a nice little party for him and were also able to be together to celebrate my mom on mother's day too!

ben, james, and i are so very grateful to have a mom that has been such an example of love, service, and a woman of God that she is.

it was nice to have maria with us too since with all her hard work at wellspring, our time together is limited! i am grateful for her friendship and that she is close enough to come hang out every couple of weekends!


it was quite a whirlwind weekend between all the festivities and then james and i getting ready to leave for haiti that tuesday! it is hard to believe we are already back, which makes me sad, but grateful for the time we DID have. i promise i will post some pics next time!
