June 2026

The girls have been busy working, running, hiking, going to camp, and enjoying time with family this month.

We got in a nice hike for Father's Day.

Piper & Bryndel spent an amazing week at FCA camp running cross country with their good friends.

Kyle's family spent bittersweet time together this week, grieving the loss of their lovely mom, Carolyn. And, while it was incredibly sad, it was also joyous when thinking about her reunion with Jim in heaven. Praise God. She was a beautiful example of hard work and amazing hospitality. 

(Many more Andersons gathered to celebrate her life at our house, but we forgot to snap any pictures until the end.)

From there, we ventured to the MN for one last Graham Family Vacation at the lake. We got in lots of swimming, whiffle ball, boating, tubing, night games lit with glow sticks galore, and even time with Grandma Joan. 

Iceland 2026

Hard to believe, but 25 years ago this summer we were married! In celebration, we took an epic week long adventure to Iceland! It truly was the land of fire and ice, and did not disappoint. From Reykjavik, to the Golden Circle, through Thingvellir National Park, down to the Black Sand beaches, out onto the Snaefellsnes Pennisula, through endless waterfalls, and incredible lava fields, we covered most of the southwestern portion of this stunning island. In addition, the Icelandic people were welcoming, kind, polite, helpful, and had hospitality skills that put most other countries to shame. It was such a treat to have this week together ❤️
