Ansley turns 11

It's hard to believe but that time of year has rolled around again and my "baby" has turned 11!  That's only 2 years away from being a teenager.  Oh my!   She is a blessing and is a sweet, funny, very creative, always happy young lady.  She moves into the middle school youth group at church this year and she is very excited about that.  We have a very active youth group and a great set of youth leaders so we're excited to walk alongside her in this new season of her life.   She recently had a party with 16 (yes....16!) girls attending.  We  did crafts, played games, made ice cream sundaes and played water games outside.  It was fun but went by too quickly.  Happy Birthday sweet Ansley!

 Make a wish.....

We even "tie-dyed" the inside of the cake

Puerto Rico Part 2

 Me and my new Puerto Rican friend, Elizabeth.

 A storm is definitely headed our way!  It poured as soon as we got to El Yunque rainforest. It rains alot in the rain forest  ;-)

 We finally made it to the Falls after a 40 minute hike into the rain forest.
