Catch-up

Ok so I have been a terrible blogger lately! So I apologize. We have been so insanely busy with everything that I haven't even been to the grocery store in about a month, much less thinking of taking the time to blog.

But no excuses, I am due for an update so here we go:

Leon :: He is still working happily as the Youth Director at our church. The youth group is growing and has come from just a few kids to over 35 now, so we are ramping up for summer and getting ready for some serious growth for the Fall! He is absolutely loving his job and is doing amazing things at the church. He and I are also leading worship in the "modern service" on Sunday mornings, and bringing a more modern flair to this church. It is an awesome opportunity for us and we are loving it.

Lauren :: I am loving getting back into worship and as our band comes together, it is getting more and more fun. I just accepted a position at our church as the interim Administrative Assistant. Since Leon and I are up at the church all day everyday anyway, I thought I might as well get paid to be here! So that is going really well so far (this was my first week). We get to work up here with Micah, so it is a HUGE blessing that we don't have to put him in daycare or anything!

Micah :: Some of you may know that it tomorrow is Micah's First Birthday!! I cannot believe that our little man has been with us a year. In ways it feels like we have never been without him, but in other ways, it seems like he was just a baby yesterday. Even though he took his first steps 3 months ago, it has taken some time to really get the hang of it, but for the past month he has mastered the art! He is walking and running all over the place and doesn't even crawl at all anymore. His favorite things are balls (basketballs, footballs, volleyballs, baseballs....doesn't matter) and that is the first word he says every morning. We may have a ball player on our hands. Doesn't everybody say that? He also loves music..piano, guitar, and especially drums! He can't get enough of them so we may also have a musician on our hands (or so we hope).

So that is the update on us. We are loving our new home in Keller even though the move to the 'burbs was not an easy one to make. Now that we are acquainted with our new surroundings, we are liking it more and more.

We do have a few videos that are a bit old, but we have to catch up on what has happened in our lives lately. So here is one that we just finished from when we had to repaint Micah's beautiful nursery, and there are several more coming soon. Enjoy!
