Day of Creativity

We had a fun day of creativity this month. We combined it with the campout/family fun day at Concordia so the kids had something to do while we scrapbooked!  We welcomed Jordan who came with Stacey, Melissa and Laurie, Betty, Disa and Chrystal (hopefully I spelled it right) who was so much fun and is a [...]

Pray for us!

It was a beautiful San [...]
