First Lady of the Journey

I'm in my mid-30's, and am an ordinary girl on a journey to help my husband grow a church that God is proud of and actively working at. This is a look (mostly by picture) into my mind and feelings on things that happen to me as a first lady, wife and mother.

So today was the last day to spend with my sister and her boys, before they head back home to Missouri. We had church (our church's 3rd birthday), went to a BBQ and then came back home to get a little R & R. The kids played outside and enjoyed some lemonade. We will miss them, but are very thankful for the time we have been able to spend together.

Today we took a trip into Boston. We started with a visit to the Boston Commons where the kids played on the Tadpole Playground, then we followed the Freedom Trail and vistited some historical sites on our way to Quincy Market. We ended the day with a restful stop down at Boston Harbor. Below are pictures of our visit.
