July 2006

So sorry we didn't update this blog all summer long! Here is the main events of the summer.

July:
Jason and Janelle have 2nd Anniversary on the 4th. Janelle makes a delicious breakfast complete with ketchup "I love you."

The Shives visit the Nelsons in Sacramento (for pictures see Eric and Rachels blog). Had a wonderful Sabbath.

Sunday the Shives head to PUC for the Baptist Family Reunion
It was really fun being with so much family! my mom has 7 siblings, and I have 20 cousins on that side of the family. Some were meeting Jason for the first time, and they loved him of course.


There was a newlywed game with Jason and Janelle (married 2 years), Dalena and Bennett (married 1 year), and Jeff and Megan (married 1 month). Dont we look confident? lol. We did get the most points, by answering questions like "what is Jason's dream car?" and "what time of the day does Janelle read her Bible, morning or night?" Do you know the answers?

The theme of the reunion was Psalm 23 "the Lord is my Shepherd." Each Baptist sibling did a devotion on a half a verse.

Being good country folk the Baptist family reunion included a hayride, bubble gum blowing, sackraces, lots of singing, and sharing photos. It was a blessing!!

It was great to see you two at the Reunion! I do check in on your web site so keep it current if life gives you time to do that...tho it sounds like you both are going to be busier than ever! I'm praying for you and the Amazing Facts trip to India!
