During our filming for the Change Boys documentary we were able to travel with a couple of the boys back to their home town to meet their families. One of the primary goals of the the program is family reconciliation and it was such a gift to be able to witness these families first hand. We felt so welcomed with both of the families that we visited, even though I am sure …

This past weekend Dave and I drove up to Annapolis for a mini trip away together. We spend the weekend walking around the harbor, eating Thai food, and dreaming about 2013. We really enjoyed setting time apart from our every day lives to intentionally plan for the future and focus on our marriage. It may have to become an annual tradition. A few photos from our weekend… We had a …
