2022

These first few pictures are from when we were moving into our house last December. We have all these boxes put away now! Although, there are a few still laying around...

The "boys" room

Grace, Julia, Lydia - Christmas 2021

We had a lot of snow last winter! Aaron and the woodpile and the boiler - 
We wanted to go back to the North Shore someday, and so we did for our 12th anniversary. We took Andrew along, but he did not like bundling up in his snowsuit to go hiking!

We stopped in the cities on our way to a meeting, and got to tour the state capitol!

We also made a trip to visit Aaron's family in May - this is at a wayside rest.

We made a detour on the way home to visit the Creation Museum.
