Endings and Beginnings

With the snow melting and winter (hopefully) coming to an end and the sun shining and spring (hopefully) beginning, it has made me think about some of the beginnings and endings going on in our lives and with some of our friends.

Basketball season came to an end for us this past week. The boys lost a very close game to Central Christian. They played hard, but it was definitely a disappointing loss for everyone. John's sister also lost, so basketball at SW is officially over for the year. It is always hard for the season to end, but it has been nice to have John come home after school the past few days.

 Caleb was very excited for the game!
 The two teams joined in prayer after the game.
 The SW team. They had a great season!
So proud of our awesome husband, father, and coach!
Big thanks to my mom who came up to help out the last week of the season! (tournament time is always a little crazy for the coach and his family. :))


We have also had some exciting new family beginnings for some of our friends. One of our friends had a baby boy in December, and I got to babysit him the other night. He doesn't seem to like me very much yet (he will learn), but we finally got some snuggle time when he came to visit.
He is precious!

Some of our other close friends just had a baby girl a week ago. We had the blessing of going to the hospital to meet their little girl, and it was hard to believe that Caleb was that small only 7 1/2 months ago. Wow the time really has flown by! They are also moving in to their new house(which happens to be right in our back yard) today. We are so excited for Caleb and Cora to become friends and play together, and I am excited to hopefully get lots of snuggle time with their little girl! :)
She was so tiny! (almost a pound smaller than Caleb when he was born)


We are loving the beginning of a new season and being able to enjoy some walks outside. What a blessing to have a God who controls the seasons and blesses us with warmth after the cold.
