Ya regresé

A huge thanks to all the guest bloggers! You all did so well I think I might just turn the blog over to you and retire! :)

I had a great two weeks and am so thankful that I was able to spend time with different family and friends. As with most trips, I was sad to leave but ready to return. This morning I walked out into a beautiful Mexico. The rainy season has started and the mountians are starting to come alive with greenery and the grass looks vibrant. More than just the scenery has changed, the girls look so much older! Yaneli gave me her teeth that Gloria pulled as a welcome home gift.

A quick picture summary of my time in Indiana:


The Fiechter family (minus Travis) got together on Friday night.

Kristen and I stand with Janel and her daughter, Madison, who I just got to meet!


We spent time with the Kaehr family at Lake James. My equation for the week:

Twenty people+one cottage+only two bathrooms=lots of great and a few not so great memories. (Don't worry, I won't relive the not so great memories. ;))

We had the yearly "Hey, this might be the only time we are all together so we need to take a family picture" moment.

I can't say that everyone thought that was a good idea. :)

It was fun watching the boys excel in some classic water sports. Jay slaloms through the course.



But of course, as with most boys, they had to keep increasing the challenge. This may not look hard to you, but actually, the "chariot raft" proved too much for Heather, Kristen and I.


Danno shows us how it's done

Tadd and Chad's wakeboarding show
The boys decided that everything that is fun by yourself is better with another person.


Troy, Jeff and Ben ski. I think that Jeffy and Benny are high-fivin'

Thanks everyone for your continued love and support! It can't begin to express how much it means.

God bless,

amy
