Spring...

I read e-mails about snow melting and trees beginning to bud, and I have to remember that it HAS been cold, SOMEWHERE. It's easy to forget when the weather never seems to change, and your first thought when you hear "Spring", (or "Primavera" as the case may be),  is that it is the name of a little town down the road. ;) However, even here, life has cycles. It has beginnings, too. Here are some pictures of things springing up around here.

 Noah absolutely LOVES the rain! Good little Texan that he is. :)


 Taylor and the kids have all really enjoyed having a place to wrestle...call it family bonding. :)


 This spring our homeschool hosted it's first annual robitics competition. :) 
Taylor brings such a good balance to my teaching style! 
The kids worked really hard and had fun competing. 


 our Golden Retriever puppy, Laddie (or Lad)
 who is growing so fast that this picture already looks outdated. 


 Melts Mama's heart...I've been waiting a lot of years for this first of hopefully many jam sessions. Daniel was excited to realize that he could just play A and D when Glory played those chords and could jam along. Levi is trying to learn how to play the harmonica, but this night, he wanted Glory to teach him some beginning guitar chords. 


 Some friends of ours took this family picture for us while we were out 
at the river for a VERY SPECIAL new beginning....




See? you can have Spring in Ecuador. :)

Love from us, to you!
