Welcome....Here's a glimpse of our happenings!

The verses that have REALLY spoken to me (Sarah) lately....



"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock." Matthew 7:24-25



Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings. I Peter 5:8-9



From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. For in him we live and move and have our being. As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.' Acts 17:26-28



May the words of my mouth and the mediation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer. Psalm 19:14



So be careful to do what the Lord your God has commanded you; do not turn aside to the right or to the left. Walk in all the way that the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess. Deuteronomy 5:32-33



God, our God, will take care of the hidden things but the revealed things are our business. It's up to us and our children to attend to all the terms in this Revelation. Deuteronomy 29:29 (The Message)

About the Friesen's....

We are Marc, Sarah, Luke, and Kate Friesen. We were married June 5, 2004. We have one son, born July 21, 2008, named Luke Andrew -- now 4 years old. We also have a daughter named Kate Christine -- born June 6, 2012. Marc is working at Cessna as a Senior Accountant, and Sarah stays home full-time with Luke. Sarah also gets to work very part-time at home for Graber Backhoe -- an excavation company AND VERY part-time at our church. We LOVE being a part of Grace Community Church here in Newton, KS. We lead a Community Life Group of other wonderful couples. Marc thoroughly enjoys long-distance running and Taekwondo. Sarah thoroughly enjoys walking -- especially when the weather is nice to take Luke and/or out in the stroller. Thanks for reading our blog!

Eight Months and More Stuff....

Yesterday, Marc's parents came over to see Luke. For quite some time now, Marc has been meaning to get a "3-generation of Friesens" photo -- one of his dad, himself, and Luke. Finally, we remembered to get that done. Here it is....



For those of you who don't know, Marc's dad was 50 years old when Marc was born. Marc is an only child. So, Luke is his first grandchild -- at age 84. Luke was born just 3 days after his birthday. That had to have been a nice birthday present for him.

Today (Saturday, the 21st), Luke is eight months old. Wow! How time flies. Like each month, we took a photo of him in his chair. But first, a recap...

At two months....



At four months....



At six months....



And Voila! Today, at eight months....



What a little man!

This evening, my family was over to celebrate my birthday (belated) and my brother's birthday (his birthday is April 8). We did manage to get a photo of Luke with his only two cousins. Of course, it's virtually impossible to get three small children to all look at the camera. Oh well! It's still a keeper photo.



Then, Luke got a "horsey" ride from his Grandpa Koehn. He did smile during this ride, but I was unable to get that smile on camera. That's his Grandma in the background, holding him up.



Have a great rest of the weekend.

That horsey game is one of Eli's favorites! He will get up on the couch and try to push you on the floor saying, "horsey, horsey!" Before you know it, Luke will be doing to same thing!

So why is he riding that horsey when you "stole" the horsey deal that you put on your leg from me at Christmas?? (I really didn't mind.)
