4th of July From Two Continents
This was our 4th of July last year; eating horse steak and mashed potatoes on our window in Mongolia. Kim was pregnant and we were packing up to surprise our family and friends with an early return.
This was our 4th of July this year; fireworks in (cloudy) Seattle, surrounded by good friends. Kim is pregnant again - now officially in the third trimester!

It’s amazing how much things can change in only a year. We’re thankful for God’s goodness and faithfulness, and for the people He has put around us. We’ve been blessed by great family, friends, and communities in California, Mongolia, and now Seattle. If you’re in one of those places and one of those people, thank you.

This is the lake a few blocks from our house and our friends Jonathan and Marielle from Mongolia (via Portland & France).
I uploaded a bunch of our last pictures from Mongolia to my Facebook. Just click on the picture or here to see them.


Here’s what happened to our car as it was being shipped from CA to WA. Any suggestions for an affordable family car?
