I love how God works. As different situations come up, we only learn how to get in deeper with Him. Isn’t He amazing?
We recently had a wrap-up high school girl sleepover at the house! I (robyn) have not eaten so much junk, watched movies, painted nails, put on face-masks, and stayed up till 2 am since I was in high school. Wow! I was done for about 3 days trying to catch up on sleep and nutrition. But we had so much fun. We enjoyed watching Nacho Libre (with commentary from the Bates’ twins who could quote that movie in their sleep) and Horton Hears a Who! And, to my surprise, most girls were up before me!!!! We then had an awesome time with God together. All in all, it was a GREAT sleepover.
and the month of may has been extremely restful. we’ve finished fun projects like a fabric headboard (pics soon) and have started on the “garden”, which is more like a mountain of “i don’t know what to do with this!” Austin proceded to dig up half of it today, and we’re looking to finish the digging portion of our gardening experience on monday. pray for wisdom!!!
and i noticed Austin wrote something in here about trying to get preggers. If you think about it, please pray Psalm 128 over us and our family.
Thank you to all our Military men & women who served and have died for our country! We appreciate all you have done. Happy Memorial Day!
And to yall have a great Memorial Day Weekend as well!

Hey everyone, Robyn and I are on the verge of completing a 30 day prayer journal on what the heck we are going to be doing for the next 5 years of our lives!!! It is really exciting thinking through different possibilities. It has also been very unifying for Robyn and I to get our thoughts and dreams out on the table and talk through them together.
The three things that we are evaluating
1. re upping our commitment with the youth in Wheaton.
2. Heading back to school (Austin)
3. The senior leadership here in Wheaton has asked us to consider joining a church plant team to Colorado.
It is really fun thinking through our future, especially with Halle developing so quickly. There are a ton of possibilities in all three options and we are weighing the pros and cons carefully, trying to hear God’s heart on all three!
We also are gearing up for the push season for the youthgroup this summer. We have landed on a theme of pursuing REAL LIFE (John 10:10) and getting rid of false fillers i.e. video games, alchool, boy/girlfriends, music, drugs. The kids are really excited about it. It seems that alot of them are convinced that loving people like Jesus and obeying His commands is way more adventourous then they sitting around the tv all summer and wasting hours on facebook!
We have also been enjoying miracles in lifegroups! We have had several physical healings, and even a girl that cut her self had her scar totally disappear!
Robyn and I have also recently kicked off some great realtionships with some young families at church which has been a huge lifeline for both of us. Krishnamerthys, Stauffers and Swindells you guys are awesome!!!
One last thing we are hoping to get pregnant again soon….so be sure to ask : )
love you guys
Austin
