We had another birthday celebration this month. Luke loves life and enjoys watching tv, listening to music and going anywhere. He loves having people over and being with people in general. It is hard to believe he turned 17 a little over a week ago! I can't believe we have been parents for 17 years. The Lord has used Luke to teach us many things in our lives. We are grateful for him and the Lord has entrusted him to us. Luke wanted to go go-karting for his birthday and to eat at KFC. Jennifer also made him pizza bread and cake. We had a fun day, well actually a few days of celebrating.
We were also able to get away for a few days to the beach this past weekend. We are grateful to live fairly close to the beach and to be able to go every once in a while. We have seen that these breaks are necessary for our family.
Joel and most of the boys enjoy getting in the ocean although they can only do so up to their knees because it is so rough! But it is still beautiful!
We usually have at least on beautiful sunset while we are there!
