Home and Back Home

At the end of April we were able to go back to Montana and visit family and friends. It was so great to be back!! We stayed with Walt and LaRae (Conni's parents) on their ranch. John was a great help to Walt around the ranch and getting things ready for summer. Conni got to spend a lot of time with her mom, sister and nephew. It was a great relaxing time!

It was interesting though, on our way to Montana we kept calling it "home" and then on our way back we were calling Colorado "home" too. It was a neat concept for us to be able to love two places so much that we are able to call them both home. We really feel that these past seven months has been so beneficial to our marriage and to us individually. We feel that we can call Crested Butte home not just because it is where we live but because we now have a group of people (of all ages) who have become our support system here. Oh Be Joyful Church has been key in making CB our home. They have become our family. We feel so blessed to have such a large family. :)

We have been talking about getting baptized for quite some time now, and we have finally decided that on June 13th we would both get baptized. :) God's timing is so awesome. How many married couples get baptized together? or even how many husbands get to help baptize their wives? We are excited to be able to do this together. It will be an awesome landmark in our marriage to remember forever! And a great opportunity to show and share to others how important God is in our lives. The icing on the cake...both set's of parents are planning on being here for it! Have we mentioned how blessed we are?? :)

Oh! We leave this Friday for Boston. We take the bus to Denver stay Friday night with John's cousin and then fly out to see Josh (John's old roommate)! We cannot believe it is finally here!
