Welcome to the world Boone & Noah

We have 2 new nephews! Boone Winston Chandler was born on July 21st and Noah John Guarnieri on July 26.  Both boys are less than 3 months younger that Levi and we are blessed to live close to both of these sweet boys.  Levi may not know it yet, but these boys will surely to be two of his best friends.

farewell colorado

Well, we are back in Georgia.  We had a great month at Trail West but it is always sweet to be home again.  We loved being at a family camp and watching families spend time together and hear the gospel. We loved being with other YL staffers too.  Assignments create such a sweet community and we will miss that.  The boys made many friends, had so much fun, and got lotsa love and attention. Here are some pictures from out last week...

                                         Caleb just LOVED this sweet little girl Leigh

Caleb & Leigh..these two held hands for most of this night and called each other "cowboy" &"cowgirl"

Caleb loved Libby too.  If I couldnt find Caleb, there was a good chance he was where ever she was :) 

Colby & Hannah

Levi got lotsa love too!

Happy Boy!

This is the face I get to wake up to every morning.  Levi is a big, happy boy! All these pics are from around 10 weeks old.  He has gotten very smiley. He is still a very content baby who rarely cries. We are all smitten with this sweet baby boy!

Cowboy Night

Just a little update from Trail West.  We are still having a great time.  I'm just starting to get used to walking up big hills with all 3 boys (usually carrying Levi and dragging colby behind).  The boys are making lots of friends.  The first group of guests just left and a new crew will come tomorrow.  The pictures below are from the Western Night.  The boys had a big time getting dressed up.  

Levi is getting big..he is 2 months old now! He still sleeps alot, but when hes awake he's very smiley and so so sweet. He hardly cries and his favorite place to be is snuggled up on mommy or daddy's chest.

Trail West

We're in Colorado! One of the really great perks of Young Life staff is assignment, where you go and work at a YoungLife camp for a month.  We are at Trail West and are loving it so far.  Chad is summer staff boss- working with the college kids that came to volunteer.  Its gorgeous here, the boys love it! They have rocks and sticks and dirt and mountains and are in little boy heaven.  They also love all the attention the workcrew and summer staff give them.  They have Caleb convinced he is the strongest little boy ever and Colby convinced he is the cutest.  I love watching other people love on my boys. And little Levi has been the BEST baby ever.  He just goes wherever we go, sleeps wherever, and is so stinking cute.

 This is Levi's ride for the month

 This is right outside of the door to the room where we are staying.

this little cutie is 8 weeks old!

pool baby

We decided it was time for Levi to take his first plunge in the swimming pool.  I didnt think he would like it, but I was wrong. He was very content.  Good thing since his big brothers have us at the pool every chance they get!
