Summer Fun

This has truly been a wonderful summer. Alia and I have spent the majority of our summer out of town. We were in Salt Lake City visiting family and friends for 3 weeks. It was a true blessing seeing everyone and also being in the mountains! Alia and I also ran our 1st 5K! We had been talking about running one for a while but never got around to doing so. The altitude hit us pretty hard but we got through it alive!

As soon as we came back to Texas, we got to rest for half a day and then got right up and left for Raymondville and Harlingen, TX for the Gonzales Family Reunion! What a blast spending time with our family and catching up with those we haven't seen in a while. The family reunion was filled with great conversation and fun games like Mexican Bingo!

We can't forget the wonderful wedding of Tony Brown and Erica Shinya in Kansas. We were thankful and honored that we were able to play for their wedding!

Unfortunately, our stay was a short 0ne. I was hired to play trumpet in a musical (Once Upon a Mattress) for the week at Tomball College and Alia had a few gigs she was asked to play. It was extremely fun but we are happy that it is over. We finally have our nights back.

So far that has been our summer. We are happy to be home and happy that we will be able to go back to our home church. We will keep this updated as the summer and year go on. We should have pictures from Chris and Kim's new deck that we built with the help of Mike Singleton!
