"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Maple House Trip

Every year each house at Gateway is able to take the residents on a house trip.  This year, our house went to Cincinnati--we went to Kings Island, and then went across the border into Kentucky to the Creation Museum (a very cool museum--we highly recommend it!).  We stayed 2 nights at a hotel.  The trip was lots of fun, but we were excited to be home, too, since we left Kaine and Halle in Bluffton.  


Nathan and one of the girls acting a little strange:)

Our group at Kings Island (on the botton left is our amazing assistant, Rachel Huber)


Nathan and the girls--it's kind of hard to see, but they are all eating edible crickets.  Gross!

Rache H. and some girls

The girls think Nathan looks like a cop in this picture:)

So that was our annual Maple House trip.  Fun, but definitely a relief to be home, too!
