Fall Family Photos

We still don’t have a new “official” family photo since Mia’s arrival, but this impromptu shot in the living room turned out pretty nicely! Clockwise from the top: Joshua, Kelsie, Mia (4 mos.), Rebekah (11), Abigail (14), Macie (dog), Hosanna (9), David (2), Kathryn (4).

It’s true, fall is nearly over. All the more reason to share some of the photos we’ve snapped over the past couple of months! We’ll have a newsletter coming out soon, but in the meantime, here are a handful of memories from our life in Lviv.

As always, we’re grateful for your prayers and support as we minister!

We recently had to travel to the city of Vinnytsya (~6 hrs. east of us) to get new passports. All in all, it was a fun road trip!

We stayed in a small apartment, and everyone had their own nightstand. Kathryn was particularly pleased with this arrangement. 😁

Abby and Hosanna have recently started singing with the music group at our church. It’s been a great opportunity for them to be more involved with our Ukrainian friends in ministry.

Bedtime is a special time for piggy-back rides, silly songs with Dad, and cozy covers.

The littles have a special alarm clock in their room — a puppy holding a ball that glows red during the night. When it’s time to get up, the ball glows green. So we have this rhyme they like to repeat at bedtime: “When the light is red, we stay in bed. When the light is green, we may be seen!”

We often enjoy walks along the various trails and sidewalks near our apartment building. Lviv in the fall is beautiful! 🍁

Our dog Macie has really grown to be part of the family. ❤️ She and Abby are especially close with Macie following Abby most everywhere she goes.
