The past several weeks seem quite a blur. They have been FULL weeks, and the highlights (at least) are worth sharing.
As mentioned in our previous post, we managed to squeeze in a South Carolina long-weekend for July 4th. In addition to gender reveal parties, we had lots of outdoor fun with family!

Picking flowers at Nona's...
especially a treat since G planted these flowers with Nona in May! |
 |
| Loving the horses |
 |
| Airplane ride with Boppy |
We returned to Wichita late Monday night, July 8th -- just in time for one final week of work and school before leaving Wichita on Tuesday, July 16th.
Gracie's last week was a fun one. Her class took two field trips -- one to a nearby bookshop for a special story time and another to the Children's Theatre for "Peter Rabbit." We have been blessed by the loving staff at Jacob's Learning Ladder and will miss them!

| Cookie Cake for G's last day |
Dean & Dianna were both blessed by farewell luncheons at work as well as sweet gifts -- candies for us as well as special things for baby boy! It has been a privilege to serve and minister at GraceMed this past year, and we will miss our GraceMed family.
In the midst of packing and moving -- which would NOT have been completed without the help of church family and special friends -- we were able to savor our final moments (for now) with some dear friends.

We also said to goodbye to our Heartland family. Thanks for the prayerful send-off!!
