From the Past: July 28 - August 3

After Alycia flew home, we began our last week together in Florida, full of packing and getting ready for Ryan's big trip with the high school guys. But we also found some time to go to Jose's with the kids for Taco Tuesday, and to go bowling with them as well.

Our good friends Som and Jessica stopped by to meet Cole and to chat for a couple hours. With Som's busy Young Life schedule, and Jessica's busy med school schedule, we were so glad we got to hang out with them before we left.

The hardest thing about moving was saying goodbye to the youth kids. We miss them a ton. Here is a picture of Matt finally holding a baby for the first time, albeit in a car seat.

Right after Ryan left on the Man Trip with the high school guys, Emily headed up to Lutz for Paige's 3rd birthday party.She had a great time, and especially loved getting her own UCF jersey. She probably loves going to the football games more than Rex does.Tomorrow, find out what happened on the infamous "Man Trip", and learn what Emily, Cole, and Grandma Bentley did to pass the time while Ryan was gone.
