Rom 3:23-24

There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.

Easter, Old Friends and Field Trips

Happy (belated) Easter. We hope you had a wonderful celebration of the resurrection of our Lord!
It was too much work to move all these pictures, so they are in backwards chronological order. I wasn't trying to feature myself! :) 20 weeks along...its a healthy (thank GOD) boy!!

Thanks for the racetrack Grandad and Bibi. This was my second setup of the track so some of the turns are a bit abrupt!


The JSF---just for you Grandad!


Who doesn't enjoy a day at the air and space museum??

The 3 younger ones may not have been impressed by the Arlington National Cemetary, but Grandma, Law and I were. It is full of history of our nation.



We were amazed at the grounds of George and Martha Washington. To think these buildings were put up in the 1700's blew our minds.


This sheep at Mt. Vernon was having a rough time...the children were having a fun time guessing what he was talking to the wall about.

George and Martha's view of the Potomac.

Grandma and the children learn about the machine shop at Mt. Vernon.


We had a wonderful night catching up with some other Marine families. Just a few years back, there were 3 children between the three families.

Top (Law S, Madison J, Alexandra M)

Bottom (Ezra S, Maison S, Feven S, John Patrick M and funny Andrew J)


The 3 originals: Alexandra M, Law S and Madison J (our favorite God daughter)

Our favorite God son Justin.

Scott, Niki, Shelly, Eric, Amparo and John

Justin REALLY wants to pose with us!

Deuteronomy 10:18

He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the alien, giving him food and clothing.
