2020 has been a crazy year but good things happened!


This year has been different; but full of many blessings. Erica came to visit with us from Ohio during her spring break. Because of COVID - her break lasted until she graduated in May! It was sure fun just to have her here for meals and random games of cards! and crowded. But so odd because we couldn't go anywhere. and Bret & I were both working from home. It created it's one challenges with regard to space for everyone. It was a delight to have Kallie here as well - she adjusted very nicely to the outdoors from her normal indoor routine with Erica. Alissa treated us all like royalty with all her cooking & cleaning since the rest of us were either working or doing school. We took many walks during the long & lovely spring. So thankful for such good weather so that we could enjoy it together.

But we were all excited awaiting the arrival of Titan Bihn Truong. He arrived on July 9th @ 4:32pm @ 7'7".  So I am now a Lollie! (& Bret is Pops!). He is a treasure and a joy! and adorable!

The difficulty now lies in trying to keep Titan from getting sick as well as finding jobs in this difficult economy. It makes us rely all the more and the sovereignty and certainty of God!
