We have had some huge news. In case you missed it Mike and I are now parents. I know, I know... you are thinking, "What's the catch?" Right? Well, Mike and I have gotten an exchange student from Brazil. He is 16 years old and he's from Natal in the Brazilian state Rio Grande do Norte. Felipe Lisboa Luz is our new "son" for a year. We are having some difficulties with school enrollment because St Johns High School refused to take any more exchange students, but hopefully it will all work out. We are excited about this new adventure we all will be on.
We also recently took the nephews for their annual Auntie-Nephew trip to Silver Lake. We had so much fun!! Friday we took off for the dunes with Ben's truck and 2 buggies in tow. Friday night we broke our buggy. Walker and Joey named it the "Red Bomber". Caleb's got named the "Purple People Eater". Saturday we hiked about the dunes and Mike and Joey tried to get us running again. We had a few short runs, but we were not destined to run that weekend. Saturday night after the boys' pool time we went putt putt golfing. It was surprisingly hard! We had fun though. Sunday we packed up and headed to Kalamazoo to pick up Felipe. We found a Laser Tag place near the pickup point and we had so much fun chasing each other around in the dark.
This weekend we will have the Community Group campout back at the pond. Looking forward to another fun weekend!
