spring is here


just hanging around...
spring is here! sort of...we're having some unseasonably warm weather these days (it's 34 faren. right now) and we're already noticing that the sun is coming up earlier and staying out later! yeah for vitamin d!
a few nights ago we had scott and stephanie longyear over for dinner. scott spoke at hinkson's chapel all last week for spiritual emphasis week. scott and stephanie came all the way from indiana and we all had a great time together.

here we are with stephanie...doesn't it look like kai is smiling?

"papa john's"
last year in language school, papa john's pizza was right next to the cold little church that we met with our teacher in, so on particularly difficult days in language class, or when it was really really cold (the church wasn't heated), tim and i would have a papa john's date after class - and that is always a good thing! so we took silas there for the first time a few days ago...he seemed to have a good time and was very entertained by the loud techno music that made the walls of the small restaurant shake with the beat.

here are some other fun pics of life lately...

kai, in her stylish boots showing off her mad frisbee skills...

silas and emil discussing the deeper things of life...

tim and the boys!
