I think all of our families here for Standardization would agree that living in community hardly ever gets tiring. We may not accomplish much inside the house, or keep a normal schedule, or maybe the bread burned and the floors didn't get vacuumed, but hey, it's SO hard to come inside to work when there is constant fellowship to enjoy when we are all outside just hanging out together and watching our kids play and ride their bikes all day long. Yes, this is a snapshot of our lives here at MAF while the husbands are doing the dirty work fixing and flying airplanes as they prepare for their future in aviation overseas.
So...here are some pictures of our life in community. I am thankful, humbled, and encouraged that we get to serve alongside these beautiful families with MAF.
In only 1.5 weeks, we celebrated 4 of the kids' birthdays,
including Aaron (3) and Jocelyn (1)
It was fun to invite all the families to Tyler's parents to
celebrate their birthdays!
This girl is such an encourager!
We went to the zoo one afternoon with another family
that is headed to Indonesia
The boys visiting Daddy in the hanger
During Easter week, one of the wives did an awesome kids
lesson on the Passover
Learning about the Passover
Drinking their first cup of juice for Passover
"Who's the cutie with the carrot?"
Another Easter lesson on the Resurrection
Using marshmallows and crescent rolls to demonstrate Jesus
in the tomb and rising again
Egg hunt on Easter morning
First time flying a kite with the kids!
love of my life
Playin' games with the neighbor (he already left for Indonesia, sadly)
