It is official- we bought the t-shirts!



If you haven't already heard, Chris was accepted as a transfer student to OU law.


OU has a great law school and we are very excited about moving to Norman!


We got in touch with a realtor, found our new house and wrote a contract on it in just two days. Thank you to everyone for their thoughts and prayers- this was a huge decision, and we knew that God would provide for us and that everything would fall into place, and so far it has.





Our new home... It is about 2 miles away from the stadium!


















































































































Please continue to pray for us as we start the process of moving, as Chris starts school, and Tif looks for a new job.

Rodeo!

One highlight of every summer is the White Deer Rodeo; not that we care that much for the rodeo, but that we get to spend time with our family living in Kansas! They have made it a habit to come down every year. We had a blast this year, and it was great to see everyone!

here are just a few pics...

New Mexico

For our mini vacation this year we decided to head over to Albuquerque to visit Brandon and help him out around his new house. Here are a few pictures from our trip.


This is Brandon's new house! It is really awesome and it has an amazing view.

The view...





























San Felipe de Neri Church in Old Town


































































St. Francis Cathedral. It was build by French archbishop Jean-Baptiste Lamy in 1869.

















The oldest church in America... San Miguel chapel built in 1680 and was rebuilt in 1710.





















Loretto Chapel, built in 1873



















Escalera Famos-The staircase seems to stand with no support. The legend is that a carpenter appeared and built this staircase in the chapel and left without even waiting for payment for his services.
