Our First Pet
We decided to get our first pet as a family and as a married couple, in fact. It is a crown-tailed betta. Nathan kept denying the names we suggested until we said Bobber. So here is Bobber the betta fish...

Please pray for our friends. Daryl babysat her a long time ago and then we all ended up at the same college ministry together at Purdue.

Thanks so much.

Happy Father's Day!
We love you and are so proud to call you husband/dad!

Jacob's Update
Jacob had his 18 month (a few weeks late) check-up yesterday. He is doing well, but he still has an infection in one ear. He has battled these for a long time and the doctor suggested we go to an ENT doctor to see if anything should be done to help him. Our appointment is on Tuesday so I'll keep you updated with that.

Jacob finally started saying "mommy" yesterday. My kids are slow to say this word for some reason. I was "bobby" to Nathan until he was 2 I think. He is starting to pick up a few words so it is neat to see. His biggest obsession right now are animals. He loves to see pictures and make their noises. It is so cute.

Trip to Atlanta
We just got back yesterday from a family trip to the Atlanta area. We left on Wed and drove to my brother's house. He wasn't actually there since he is in New Orleans right now trying to catch all the bad guys they let go after Katrina. We had a wedding for my cousin on Saturday and then we drove back home Monday. It was a good visit and the boys got to play with their cousin who is similar in age. My sister-in-law is pregnant right now with another boy due at the beginning of August. What's up with all the boys? It was a lot of driving but a good trip overall. Here are a few of my favorite shots...
