FAMILY


On March 3 the Aungsts, owners of the farm where we live, had an auction to sell their farm equipment. They now rent the farm out to our nieghbors, the Millers.


On March 3 Kendra, Tara, & Ben spent the afternoon and night with the Fernalds. The kids have a blast together!


Tara turned 6 on March 7


Kendra in her music class at school. She is enjoying second grade at Bainbridge Elementry School!


Tara invited a friend from school, Alyssa, to celebrate her birthday with her at Chuck E Cheese's on March 8


Bryan and Ben have enjoyed helping with the farm chores occasionally


We visited a local chicken and hog farm. There were about 27,000 chicks in this one barn! They are raised to provide chicken for New York City.


We got our snow on holidays this year - a pretty big one fell on February 14, and the last and biggest one on March 17. The kids made snow angels, but the snow wasn't a good packing snow. This little snowman was all they managed to make a few days later.


One Sunday afternoon Lori looked out the window and saw some heifers eating the shurbs in front of our house. One was even on our front porch! Bryan helped get them back to where they were supposed to be. Its all part of living on a farm!



The kids love helping us with Emma, who we babysit four days a week. We have also enjoyed some fellowship with Emma's grandparents, the Musser family. Here we are at their house for a meal and fellowship. We all enjoyed some ping pong and air hockey!



On March 24 Ben turned four years old. We celebrated his birthday as a family, and took the kids bowling for the first time!


MINISTRY

Meal and fellowship with Shirley McBride and her grandaughter, McKenzie


Teaching 5th and 6th grade Sunday School at our home church, Calvary Bible Church


We had the privilege of being involved in our missions conference at Calvary Bible Church March 23-25. Ron Blue, former president of our mission CAM International, was the keynote speaker. We enjoyed a Russian meal and a good presentation from Russian Missions to conclude the conference.


Bryan has been taking some graduate classes at Lancaster Bible College over the last three months. One class is finished, two are about finished, and he will be taking at least one more.
