Early Resolutions!

So quite a bit of time has passed since my last blog. Life has given us lots of up & downs since that post. We have now relocated to El Paso, TX and are currently serving in a new ministry position here.

Carson is 3 1/2 and full of personality and never a dull moment with him. From his incredibly cute witty comments to his crazy antics like cutting up paper & gluing them to all the dining room chairs, he keeps our whole family on their toes.

Nolan is 7 1/2 and a big old second grader. He is very creative and becoming a brilliant Lego designer thanks to lots of Lego time with his dad. He is doing well in school here and adjusted very well to making nDSC_0249ew friends. He has a sweet sensitive heart & we love seeing how God is already beginning to use his caring heart for others. Now if only he would continue to exercise that gift with his younger brother!

Marc is loving his new position as high school & college pastor here. It is so clear that God has planted us here and that he has lots in store for the young people of El Paso. We are very honored and humbled to be a part of His great plan.

I am currently a stay at home mom and have not pursued a teaching position here as of yet. Church & youth activities keep me very busy and as stated above Carson does as well.

We just celebrated our first Christmas here in the desert and were excited to actually enjoy a few days of snow prior to Christmas. We are taking that as a gift from God directly to our snow loving family! Below are a few pictures of our Christmas celebration.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year from The Blacks!
