My Beautiful Girls!

Just thought I would show off my three beautiful girls. The twins are growing so quickly and they are so much fun. They are laughing now. It is so sweet. Emily is a great "Big Sister." She is great with the girls. We are so proud of all three of them.

Can you tell who is who?

Dedicated to God!

On Sunday May 11, we had a special dedication service for the twins. We invited many of our Greek friends and ended up with a total of 18 people in our home that evening. My mom and I prepared a meal and after we ate, we got a phone call from our home church in Missouri. It was the end of their morning service. Our pastor spent some time over our speaker phone talking about what it means to dedicate our children back to God and he explained that it had nothing to do with their salvation, but it was about Adam and I as parents giving our children to God to do with what He will. He then prayed over our girls. After he finished, my dad prayed over the girls and then Adam did the same. It was a wonderful evening and we were able to share Christ with many of our unbelieving friends. After the service ended, we had several questions from our friends as to why we do not baptise the children and what we believe. They were happy that we allow our children to choose what they will believe and that we don't believe that they are born into it. I found that very interesting!
Here are a some pictures of our girls and their special friends that shared their special night with them.

A Visit From Friends

I know it has been awhile since our last post, but we have had a very crazy few weeks. Earlier this month, we had 5 men from Franklin, Virginia come for a visit. Adam and my dad had a great time being tour guides for the days that they were here. They went all over Greece. They visited many of the Biblical sites including a couple of sites in Northern Greece. They seemed to have a good time. They dubbed this trip as the "That's Just The Way It Is!" trip because they heard either Adam or my dad say that so much. Here in Greece, things are not always as logical as we think they should be, but there is nothing we can do about it... "That's just the way it is!"

The men left here and flew to Romania to do some electrical wireing for Missionary Keith Price. They were dead tired when we put them on the plane, but I hope it was a good trip anyway!
Here is a couple of pictures of the group.
