zephyr part 2

we did one extra camp this year without the band...on our one day off, we drove for the day to port aransas, where the marshalls just happened to be staying for the week! got to enjoy some time at the beach, and recharging and relaxing time with friends. the major downside was that andy was getting sick...so he was not feeling very well. HUGE BUMMER as he got more and more sick throughout the week...but he pressed through and finished strong despite being sick!
tysen did the cargo net again...and this time, ian braved it as well! so proud of them both!! I wasn't sure ian was going to make it down the zip line....he looked like he was going to throw up...he told me later he felt a little nauseous...but he mustered up the courage and was so glad he finished it!
the ride home was pretty quiet...:)

always love being at zephyr camp! it's starting to be pretty natural now...this was our 4th year...I love seeing Joey lead the worship, and Andy teaching...it's really so fun for us to get to do a piece of ministry together...each year feels more and more special.
this year they allowed some of the kids to do the ropes course. tysen and max were so brave and attempted the rock wall....didn't make it all the way up, but boy completed the cargo net and then did the zipline together!! we were so proud! it was SO TALL.

surprises!

we went to fort worth for kasey and ryan's wedding...and got a little surprise entrance of our newest nephew, Wesley Elliot Vanderveer came two weeks early...so fun to get to be at the hospital with Adam and Yvette!!
with barely minutes to spare, we rushed off from the hospital to the rehearsal dinner....
always nice to have a little down time for the family. took a nice walk in the morning before getting ready for the wedding!!!
wedding time! kasey was such a special leader with us at fbc...loved getting to watch her fall in love with ryan and even greater privilege for andy to officiate the wedding! love those ercks!!!
