Summer Daze

We had a great time staying on beautiful Coronado Island thanks to the generosity of Aunt Christy. Josiah loved the beach and kept wiggling his feet off the towel into the sand!

Jungle Boys Reunion

We had such a great time this past weekend reconnecting with a group of our college friends referred to as the "Jungle Boys." Jason lived with these 4 other guys his last year at Biola and we have continued to stay in touch as we go through life stages together. What began as 5 bachelor guys has grown to families totaling 17 people. Although one family was absent we had a great time laughing, playing and sharing together. The gang all stayed in my (Christine's) parents house. With 3 newborns and 3 toddlers, some people thought we were crazy, but we loved the madness and noise level. We are so grateful for such good friends in our lives. If you are interested in seeing more photos and a video visit our Brian and Ashley's website at www.thenickfamily.com
