Summer Fun

Another busy month is coming to a close! There has been much activity here in the Sebo home so this post might be a bit scattered!;)Ryan made this card castle one Friday while I was cleaning and he was watching theology at church, so I decided to post a picture of it. I thought it was impressive.



Daddy performed another graduation, this year for Jacob and Sarah, two friends from church. He did a wonderful job acting as principal.
Also we got a pool! It's 12ft. across and 3ft., 3in. deep. It's been awhile since we had a pool and we are really enjoying swimming whenver we can. The only days we are not allowed to swim are Sundays and Wednesdays, otherwise, we are pretty much in it the rest of the week!:) We are grateful to the Lord for providing this fun activity for the family!:)


Setting up the pool....

Under water:)
Daddy is really enjyoing using his under water camera:)Daddy and Timmy. This is Timmy second time swimming since Sacramento last year.
Christina, our cousin came to visit Wednesday! Unfortunately we were not able to swim with her but, we did get to bring her with us to prayer meeting which was alot of fun! Christina was especially happy here as she passed her driver's test!
While most of us spend the afternoons swimming, Timmy and Josh prefer army men and Kefir.

It was cute watching him drink out of the bottle:)
Army men time
Singing
Joshua was trying to sing something too:)
As I had previously mentioned, we finally finished painting the livingroom, hall and kitchen. This project also involved scrubbing base boards, wiping down walls and moving furniture all towards the center of the rooms. We kept the rooms the same color just added a fresh coat of paint and touch-up. It was alot of fun but, I'm glad to have it done! It looks alot better now, even if it's not perfect.

The Lord continues to provide, showing Himself strong on our behalf and giving us His best!:) His timing and provision are always perfect! Praise the Lord!
Nevertheless He did not leave Himself without witness, in that He did good, gave us rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.

Children's Program 2010

This is a slideshow of the Children's Program that our church put on during the Seminar Week. It was a really special week and we all had so much fun!:) I'm sorry this is so late but, I had alot of problems with the program I used to put it together. The Lord was so good and here it finally is!:) Hope you enjoy it!:)

May Days:)

May was a full month. First off, the Lord has provided us with a new van which we are really enjoying! This van is somewhat different as it has shoulder belts on all the seats. Our old one had lap belts in the middle seats. Old Van
New:)
Living in the city and being indoors too long is always hard for us as a family, so Saturday, Mama decided we would take a hike at Casper's Wilderness Park! We really enjoyed getting out in the fresh air and sunshine without all the street noise and traffic. We are hoping to go more often!:)
All thses photos are from the first hike which only the boys took. Mama, Katie and I took the three littlest to the playground.
Enjoying a ride on the tire swing
The teeter-totter provided alot of fun and everyone except for Mama, rode on it:)
Up, we go
On one end....
.......on the other end
Next came the slides
Timmy didn't want to let go of the handle bars here:)
The results of this picture were quite different than the last time Natey used this zipline. A year ago, he only made it halfway, fell, and broke his wrist. This time, He made all the way across, safely with no broken bones!:)
Daniel and Katie using the tire swing. (The boys joined us after their hike.)
"Hello!"
The"grande" slide ( BIG in Spanish)

The next day was Sunday. During the course of the afternoon we were invited to go to the park for a walk with some friends from church. This was another refreshing time and it provided plenty of exercise.

Cristin invited Katie, and I to ride with her, so our friend Paul came with Mama and the little ones. Timmy and Joshy really like him and it was cute to see him walking them.
Mama and I carrying the two little ones
This was pretty much the group we walked with until we met up with some others. Here Katie and Rachel are in front, with Mama, Timmy and Cristin, and Amy, Joshy and I bringing up the rear. Ryan, Daniel and Paul were usually in the back but, they didn't make it in this picture.
Isaiah didn't really want his picture taken here but, Timmy didn't seem to mind:)
We sat by the lake for a bit and talked. Here is Katie listening to Rachel describe something.
The boys playing...the water was too much of a temptation for the little ones and we quickly found ourselves taking the muddy guys to the van. Thankfully it wasn't too bad and they were soon dry.
Monday was our church's annual Memorial Day Game and Barbeque. This is probably one of the funnest days of the year! Our church reserves one of the fields at a nearby park and a game of softball is open to whoever would like to play, for about two hours. Following that, is the barbeque and then the rest of the time is spent playing games like, ultimate frisbee, tennis, volleyball, football, etc.

The park also has a nice big playground which the little ones look forward to each year.

This is a picture of our Pastor's grandaughter. It was just too cute to pass up!:)
getting a group to play a game
Daddy recently got a remote control car for his birthday. He had fun racing it around with some of the guys.


I don't have any pictures of the latest activity here at home. We have been busy wiping walls, scrubbing baseboard and re-painting in the kitchen, livingroom and hall! We had been needing and wanting to get this job done for awhile now! It has been neat to see how as we do it in His time, God's timing, everything works out perfectly! Not only were we able to paint, but, the Lord provided a couch, rug, and curtains, for the kitchen too, that match wonderfully! It is such an encouragment to see the Lord work out the small things so well and realize that if He can do that for the little things how much more will He do for the greater things?!?
"He has made everything beautiful in it's time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end."
