All our visitors

It has been awhile since I have updated.... We have really jumped back into life full swing now that Noel is getting older and the holidays are over with. It has been so busy!

I was realizing over the past month or so how many people we have gotten to see that happened to be in town for the holidays and got to meet Noel. Cousin Laney and Auntie Kristin were here....

Uncle Chad came in as well....
Aaron always likes having someone extra around to entertain him and demand attention from.

We also got to catch up with some of our old college students that we were very close with in that ministry, David and Megan Buckles. David was on a brief leave from serving in the Army from Afghanistan and it was so great to see them....
Aaron was especially excited to meet the real David Buckles - He had received a helicopter for Christmas and since David flies helicopters for the army, Uncle Kyle had jokingly told him that the plastic character's name was David Buckles.....
It totally stuck so Aaron was quite intrigued that there was a real live David that drives helicopters and shoots bad guys. He expressed some concern that David might shoot him but then decided he was nice. He also expressed that he wants to be a soldier now and not a pastor like Daddy....

We also got to catch up with our old friends the Kings and I SADLY did not get a picture of them all here.... But still wanted to give them a shout out! =)

And for fun....
In the process of downloading pictures, I came across MANY that I realized I had not taken. I guess Aaron likes to take hold of my camera and take some of Noel...
She doesn't look too happy in this next one so I'm wondering what else he was up to besides taking pictures of her - he has been known to poke eyes and smother her overly with his affections....


Also, for your viewing pleasure, a 20 second synopsis of what is generally constant and typical of Aaron's energy....


Not sure why the shirt if off, but just go with it.....
