Fall 2021

 It's been a while, but all is well! Here's a long overdue update of life over on Rock Ridge Road...

With the rest of the kids all at school 3 days a week, Hannah is thoroughly enjoying being Mom's big helper and primary frosting taste-tester.☺ 

She also enjoys having Mary home to play with 2 days a week!

Luke turned 14 and got his learner's permit. He's now been promoted to driving the family to church on Sundays!

He also ran cross country with his buddies Collin & Levi.

Kara auditioned for our area's junior high honor band, and will be participating in the concert this coming Saturday. We had a fun day in Storm Lake with...
Sam, Bryce, Colton, Kierra, Lanae
Kara, Keely, Ali & Skyler

Our Dykstra cousins came to visit over our teachers' convention break, and we made lots of fun memories together!
Here are Hannah, Bekah & Mary doing some coloring.

Levi and Ryan played some intense games of chess.

The girls had fun visiting Jenna in her dorm at Dordt.💜

Hannah playing at the park.

She loves to play dress up too!

And last but not least, Evan turned 16 and got his driver's license! He's no longer driving the family to church, but he's more than willing to drive anywhere else for any reason!😉
