So behind...but having fun up north

So much has happened recently...my head's still kinda spinning. Please see my Facebook account for pictures of our wonderful Youth Convention last week in San Gabriel, Mixtepec, Oaxaca.

Now we've safely made it up north for a few weeks for Marc to fulfill some speaking engagements and to visit family and friends.

We so much enjoyed attending Faith Mission Church this morning. Pastor Hight preached a wonderful message that ministered to our hearts.


love this shot of Logan...


Marc's parents will be celebrating 50 years of marriage in September...here Marc is pictured with his parents, and his sisters Beth and Vonnie.




All of us Sankeys that are here in Bedford today. We're missing 8 of us - sad!



Looking forward to heading to IHC tomorrow - our first time to attend in 5 years!

My boys...



My boys dressed up for Easter...seems like just yesterday 2 of them were in a double stroller, and the other one was on my hip. Where does the time go?


We're missing Marc today. He had to make a quick trip to central Mexico - we'll be meeting up with him tomorrow on the way to the Youth Congress in San Gabriel, Mixtepec, Oaxaca!
