We Heart Our Family

This post is a bit of a teaser: I have tons more pictures of our fabulous trip including Markus' Graduation, many afternoons on the beach with my gorgeous nieces and family, and lots of Jaxon footage.....

It was hard to say goodbye to our Jeromin relatives--it's been a year since I saw the girls last and we probably won't see any of our sibs-in-law until Christmas when there will be double of us with all the upcoming babies! We were really sad to leave, but spending yesterday with our church family at a Memorial Day Pig Roast helped us remember that family is more than flesh and blood, that we have a family here who noticed that we were gone, who welcomed us home with open arms, and with whom we will spend eternity. We miss our parents and our siblings like crazy but we're so grateful for the extended family God provides through His church.

Simple but powerful truth. Great observation. I love you, and your little "fish" who just keeps swimming.
