To Our Favorite JesseWe Love You! Grandpa & Grandma
Sunday evening, June 23 I loved Jenna’s decorations. She told me that some ideas came from Pinterest. She had garden tea in pint jars. A rain gutter held bottled sodas. I think this is my first picture of Kezi (second from left – next to Jenna) since she is back from Australia and South Africa. […]

Saturday, June 22 – 11:00 a.m. After choosing a shady spot along the parade route, I caught a glimpse of the fairgrounds in the distance.

gentle and quiet attitude which God considers precious.1 Peter 3:4 (GOD’S WORD Translation)
How is that for title combinations? That is because I wanted to finish the last set of pictures before I post Truck Rally pictures. After installing a ductless heating and cooling system a few weeks ago, and removing wall air conditioners, we either had to change our siding, or have strange-looking spots on the exterior walls. So […]

We were invited to Jeff and Chris’ house on Father’s Day evening for Nathan’s 20th Birthday party. I have enjoyed watching Nathan grow into a godly young man.

Cerwin’s Father’s Day included cards, hugs, phone calls, and brunch with Roy and Deb.

Roy loves to find old and unusual restaurants – and was pleased that we had never been here. We were delighted that […]
On Saturday, June 15, our Pennsylvania family visited with our Amish friends. I enjoy traveling across the Susquehanna River at this spot – with a view of Harrisburg across several bridges. An abandoned house along a country road on our way to Perry County – about an-hour-and-a-half drive for us. I took only a few pictures, because Amish do not like photos […]

Scott Weidner, TFC President and CEO, and Jeff Batzer, TFC Executive Vice President of Ministry Programs represented the ministry this year. […]
After the cake break we were each given a small container of Play Dough and asked to design a baby. After watching a few people, I decided that I should photograph others instead of spending much time making a Play Dough Baby – because my sculpting skills are very limited. Enjoy. I like the simplicity of this one. She did this […]
