More August News

In addition to settling in, we have been busy with a few other things. Jack made the decision to get baptized this summer. We made it back to Boise in time for our annual church picnic and baptism. So the timing was perfect for Jack to act on his decision. Jack understands that his baptism tells the world that he is identifying himself with Christ and that he accepts what Christ did for him on the cross. I love the thought and sincerity that Jack had with this decision. He has been asking a lot of questions and so we pointed Jack to God's Word and what it says about baptism. We celebrate with Jack in this step of faith.
We have also added a new member to our family. Her name is Emma Sue Lauer and she comes to us from Dave's cousin Luke and his family. We adopted her in September and she has been a wonderful furry addition to our family.
Then it was back to school. The boys started at Grace Jordan at the end of August. G loves first grade and J loves third. We are so happy with our decision to attend our neighborhood school.
September and October updates will follow soon....I hope!!!
