All of the kids got a year older....and are moving into new Sunday School Classes...
That's all. If you need me I will be thanking the Lord for the time I have had with them and praying the time slows down, just a bit!

Summer Kick Off
Youth Group....Youth Group....YOUTH GROUP
So without me realizing it, our son, he turned into a 6th grader, which made him eligible to be in youth group! What?!?!
How is that possible because I was in youth group really not that long ago...
But, as I realize it has been over 20 years since I was in youth group, and come to grips that my son in old enough to be enjoying this part of life, I could not be more thankful for the church body that pours into our youth!
The family ministries at our church is amazing and our family pastor is fantastic!
So. Very. Thankful.
The first foray into youth group began with food, kickball, and of course ice blocking at the local park!
These kids have been going to church together since they were born and were actually all three dedicated on the same day in 2003!
May the Lord bless them as they grow in the understanding and knowledge of Him. May He save them at an early age and call them His own. May they become mighty warriors for Christ in the years to come!
Dream Big Leadership Summit
Tim and I were able to go to Lake Tahoe, NV with some friends for the Dream Big Leadership Summit...
It was it a fantastic time and we loved learning next to these friends we have built through Advocare.
What a blessing to be poured into the way we were!
The Cabana I will one day pay for and use....
Lake Tahoe is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been!
My love....
More Cowiche Creek Fun....
We love to go exploring...we spent another afternoon walking around the Cowiche Creek area. We have tried to do some Geocaching at the same time and have failed miserably!
But it gets us out and enjoying nature!
Mother's Day...
I know...it has been ages since I last updated, time is just speeding by and it gets away from me!
We spent Mother's Day in Yakima and as per my request we went to Cowiche Canyon to do a little hiking/walking after church and a nice brunch.
Lylah insisted she wear the backpack!
For brunch we met up with the rest of the Fries clan at Appletree. It was a great brunch but we waited FOREVER to get in! We even had reservations!
But the wait was a great opportunity for photos, which is BY FAR my family's FAVORITE thing to do (insert sarcasm sign).
Super thankful for this one! Erin is such a sweet blessing to me and I am thankful to celebrate Mother's Day with her.
Velma with her kids and grandkids!
This man... nothing more I can say, I love him more EACH AND EVERY DAY!
My sweet girl made me this card and flower!

He is Risen!
We were able to celebrate our Risen King with our beloved church family followed by a couple hours with Tim's family...
They wanted to pose this way....not sure why, but I see a TON of attitude here...
The annual egg hunt that always ends with us having to pull out a map to find the eggs that were hidden and cannot be found...
These two are best of buddies, she LOVES spending time with Paxton, it will be a sad day when their interests change and they no longer want to spend all their time together. I only pray that they continue to be as close of cousins as I have been with mine.
See any family resemblance here?
The latest member of the family...isn't he precious!
Happy Easter!
