Jamaica- hey mon!

Todd & I have a new passion....the people and mission of CCCD in Jamaica. From May 9-16, we took at team of 16 College students & Young adults from our church to work with an organization, CCCD (http://cccdjamaica.net/index.html). We had an amazing time making new friends, learning sign language, building a sistern and learning about Jamaica.

Tulip Time in Holland

Tulip Time in Holland is amazing....after over 10' of snow this season, it is awesome to see what God's hand creates each Spring. We had a family outting one afternoon to the Tulip fields. Todd was also demonstrating bravery to his boys as well at the Kinderplatz display...the fact that Nathanael can sit there so nonchalently just cracks me up!

"Handsome" Boys

Zachariah likes to dress up like Daddy (& cousin Thomas). This year for Easter, he wanted to be "handsome" and wear a tie....I have such handsome boys in this home!

March in Review

I (Bethany) am just realizing I haven't blogged in a while. In mid March, I started teaching at my new job and wrapped things up in late April. Then....it was off to Jamaica for a Mission Trip. Here is a few highlights since I last left off.

Syrup time in mid-March....so fun once the days get warmer and nights are still cool. We watched it being made a few miles down the street from our home. Then, a week later, we visited my SMC college friend, Hedy & family in Chicago. The kids all skipped school and played downtown at the Lincoln Park Zoo. A fun time!
