Well, today is the day that we have been dreading looking forward to for the last fourteen months since we began language study.  We will be taking our first language evaluation.  Our understanding is that it is basically a 15 minute oral examination/conversation with a teacher.  We will receive our results in a few weeks, don't expect me to post them on this blog :)

We have been studying hard and trying to apply ourselves with each opportunity we are given, whether in community time, study or class time.  We have been so grateful to the Father for sustaining us throughout the year of full time study.

I am thankful for the time that our tutors have poured into our lives.  At times, I have cried during class, laughed at many mistakes, and have been tired of studying.  But our tutors have been so encouraging and such great motivators to continue pushing hard.  I will forever be thankful!

As we look towards the test today, we are asking that it be an adequate reflection of our progress in the language and an encouragement as we look ahead and make decisions regarding how to continue our studying.

Thank you for thinking of us today!

Thinking of you trusting in Him for clarity, memory, and whatever is needed to do well to honor Him. Just as He has been with you and yours through this journey this past year in every moment, may He strengthen you in meeting each need.

Most people dislike tests and evaluations. With that being said they generally do A-ok. While you are in the midst of learning, progress always seems slow. However, take a step back and you realize how much you really know. I know it is over now, so here's to a great outcome.
Love,

Today was the first day of cross country season for the Junior High team.  The thing about XC is that the work is put in during the summer months with early morning runs, afternoon runs, track workouts, and hill repeats.  All that work starts to become evident during these days when the races start. Jacob woke up feeling excited to get the season started.  Abigail work up at 5:48am to fix her hair and get ready for the bus.  Abram was pretty nervous as he woke up. 5th grade girls The kids ran their hearts out and did so well for the first meet. Jacob placed 2nd for his team and 3rd overall to help the boys varsity team clutch 1st place for Varsity Boys team.  Abigail looked strong and had an overall 4th place finish for the JV girls and placed 2nd for her team. Abram looked blocked it at the beginning but certainly made up for it with a strong ending to finish 1st place in the JV boys race. Let's go Tigers!

On Saturday, Nathan, Heather and Caleb came for a visit.  We had an absolutely beautiful day, and we wanted to spend the day outside.  Some people had recommended Maymont Park.  Maymont is a park that is hundreds of acres with a stone castle and barn, some animals, and lots of space for the boys to run around. Andrew wanted to get his boots wet and Aunt Heather supervised.  I am glad we crated more boots! The walk with beautiful and we enjoyed visiting along the way. There was lots of rock climbing... and lots of goats! Jacob and Caleb did a great job riding around in the strollers, but needed some time to stretch too! I love this picture of Nathan and Caleb.  He is such a great daddy and I love to see him with Caleb. Sam enjoyed a cigar at the park too.  (I joke!) The little babies ate some grass. Andrew found the cows and wanted to pet them. Sam, Andrew, Nathan and Hap found a great rock to jump off of.  Sam was fearless and surprised u...
