Time flies and an update (sorta)

 A little less than 2 years since my last post.  WOW!  And man, has so much changed.  First, I don't even know if I can figure out how to successfully put together and publish a post - doh!  Second, I have SO much to share and update on, but not sure if and when I'll even have the time to do so now.  

Covid hitting and the world flipping upside down.  

Mass at home.  

Zoom gatherings.

New drivers.  

New jobs (including me working super part time 1.5 days a week - lots of fun and exciting things to save up for!)

Sent our oldest off to college.  (one less person living here)  😢 

Our oldest is now engaged.  (which we are thrilled!!)  😀

Sufferings and pain in relationships.

New friends and bonds to last a lifetime.  💓

Buying 2 lots to build on soon.  🏡

Fun trips and adventures together.

Lots of plays and opportunity to act and shine.  

New hobbies.

Sacraments and God's grace carrying us through in life.

And all the normalcy of life - still homeschooling, feeding and caring for our large brood, running kids to and fro, and loving and enjoying and treasuring our slower "boring" days when they happen.  

Here's a photo dump of some of our life from the past 2ish years....




















































































In the midst of all that has happened and changed and will continue to change in life, it is my faith that holds me together and brings unending peace.

"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever."

~Hebrews 13:8
