We had the privileged of returning to Skyview Ranch for a week this summer. Seth and I met while we served on staff in our college days. It was such a joy to be there for a week this summer and be a part of the ministry. There have been many changes over the years, but the mission is the same...it was a joy to see Seth present God's Word to the junior campers...and to young people give their lives to Christ. It was also just so much fun for our family to spend the week at the Ranch. These are just some of the pics I took. (long post...sorry)
My brother, Jeremy, served on staff as a life guard this summer. It was so fun to see him in action. We are proud of him for giving up his well paying summer job to come and serve at Skyview. The kids loved getting to see Uncle Jeremy. Here he is taking Ikey for a paddle boat ride to check on the water trampoline.
so many memories here for the two of us :)
Hannah had the privileged of spending the week with the day campers....she LOVED it!
We spent one morning fishing with Isaac.He pulled in a lot of fishes which made it just such a fun morning with him!
Seth caught a few too ;)
We loved hanging with the campers!
Skyview just put in a new pool...this is their first summer using it. The kids loved, loved, loved swimming in the pool!
The lake was pretty fun too ;)
On the lily pad with Daddy
Superslide!
I was impressed with how brave Hannah was to go down all by herself!
We joined Hannah and the Day Campers fora trip to the Farm at Walnut Creek. The kids had so much fun watching and feeding the animals right from our wagon. I can almost hear the giggles in several of these pictures.

It was fun to see an amish home. I took this pic of Isaac for his Nana ;)
Then we headed over to Hershbergers. The kids loved holding the puppies
One of these days...a moment like this one is going to make Daddy give in ;)

Thankful for the continued ministry of the ranch and the boys and girls that are being reached with gospel of Jesus Christ!
