Could we PACK any more...

...into June? I am sitting amidst a tornado of packing boxes, wondering what just hit us. :) My downloaded pictures tell a crazy June tale...

My cousin Nathan got married! I have no pictures of the bride and groom (alas!) but have a plethora of our family...it was so fun to have everyone come to Spokane for the festivities--even Ben and his girlfriend Kelly flew in from Anchorage for the weekend!








We sold our house! (hence the boxes stealing focal attention on our carpets...we're moving out this weekend!)


And we bought a new house... (it's so great! We can't wait to move in on July 6!!)


Gracie had her last day of school this week...here she is with her teachers, Miss Jessica and Miss Debra. They took SUCH great care of her! It's so fun for me to see how others are blessed when we share little Grace--they love her so much.



We got to host a baby shower for our friend Rachel--it was such a great time! No belly shot of her, but I'm trying to convince her to turn from the "dark FACEBOOK side" and become a "good BLOGGER guy" so that I can have access to those cute pics! We are so excited to meet Little Girl Edmondson in September (but not on Labor Day weekend--we've made out of town plans...did you hear that, girlie in the womb?)


Other highlights of the month (without pictures to accompany) would have to be...
...getting my classroom boxed up and moved for the second time this year--yay, construction!--but it will be all worth it when I move into a NEW room for the 09-10 school year
...Jeff getting his rehire letter from his school district today! Laid off no longer!
...G'ma Caroline thriving after a surgery that removed one of her kidneys...

And in between, a few relaxing moments...




So I'm thinking that these overflowing moving boxes sitting in the living room could hold some symbolic meaning...(besides the obvious meaning that we need to simplify!!!)...God's love and blessing in our life is always overflowing...sometimes it takes a month like this for our simple minds to be reminded...

Happy Easter!



Why should I gain from his reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom.
