Back to work...

Well after a very relaxing and refreshing week of vacation last week, it was back to work this week. It proved to be a busy one as our new youth pastor at church began on Monday June 5th. Pastor Aaron joined our staff this week and is off to a great start!

It was great to see his passion, his vision, and his enthusiasm for influencing the lives of middle and high school students in our church and community. He's going to do a great job, and I am very excited to be working with him. Thanks for a great week Aaron!

Natalie spent some time Tuesday night at a "Women Only Pool Party" with some women from our church. She had a great time (I hear she was the "laugh" of the party - no surprise there though!) Kudos to Kathy for putting that together. It really is rewarding to do life together.

So two neighbor girls distributed posters last week advertising their lawn mowing services for the summer. We decided to have them mow every other week (YES!!) So they mowed today (what a relief). They did a nice job. Thanks girls. NOTE: Please don't consider me too lazy...we're just trying to be good neighbors helping these girls make a little extra spending money :-)

We've got lots of graduation activities to attend this weekend. We will be sure to post pictures later. Also, the Wards and the Lees (soon to be) will be eating pizza and playing games with the Bakers tonight...definitely looking forward to it (pictures will follow as well).
