Family moments

We had a great get together with some of Steve's family when we returned to Arkansas last week. A couple of people, including Steve's dad and uncle, shouldn't even be here (from the doctor's medical standpoint), so it was extra-special time we spent with them. We are grateful that He is allowing us to spend these few days with our family before the next steps are made!!

Steve and his sister, Jennifer...

Sharing a moment with Steve's "baby" brother...we are so proud for the way Kevin is allowing the Father to move in his life.

Grandmother and one of her many girls...

As someone said, "family by chance ... best of friends by choice." Our hearts will forever be connected to Richard, Maribeth and Gabi!!

"GiGi" and Steve's great aunt and uncle threw one big fiesta for us, complete with all the tacos and tamales you could eat!!

Steve's 84 year old grandfather and great uncle...what a neat relationship these two brothers have!!

Steve's uncle who the Father carried through for many months as he fought leukemia...we were so glad to be able to laugh and spend time with him!!

Fun with cousins...

The boy cousins had to leave a little early, but Noah was a good sport about it.

Siblings ... and friends!!

Newest addition to the family ... Addi Grace!!

One final get together....

Enjoying time with "Poppa"....a great, great man!! Saying "see ya later" and watching him drive off was a little tough.

Gabi giving Emma a "best friends" necklace. They love each other so much and no amount of distance will change that! We are thankful for all the people, friends and family, that the Father has brought into our lives.
