I have been so behind with my blog posting, but I hope to get back into the swing of things (at least until our little guy is born… he is due in just a few short weeks)!  I took these photos of the Hoganson family back in November to say goodbye before they left for New Jersey.  Brad, Traci, Shea, and Camden will always have a special place in my heart and I will miss them greatly

Brad was my youth pastor, Bible Study leader, and played a variety of roles while I was growing up.  He later became our associate pastor, and then our full pastor.  Brad married my husband and I and baptised our daughter Mattea.

Traci was my youth leader, a good friend, worked on the women’s ministry board with me, participated in many Bible Studies with me, and was just a great person to talk to.

I remember when both Shea and Camden were born, and have watched them grow up into great kids.

I hope they know how much I (and so many people here in Washington) miss them, but we are so glad to see them move on to something they believe the Lord is calling them to do.
