June has been an exciting month for our family so far as Uncle Jay (Aunt Elaine's husband) recently returned from his tour of duty in Afghanistan. Jay is in the Navy, and he spent a year overseas while Elaine lived here in Bethany with Jack's parents. We are so thankful that the Lord brought Jay home safely and that he and Elaine are now reunited. Sadly (for us), they are leaving very soon to move to Germany where Jay will serve for three years. We will really miss having Elaine around, but we're so happy for the two of them to finally start their lives together.
Joel is especially sad about Aunt Elaine's move. The two of them became pretty close throughout the last year, and it has been hard for him to see her go. Thank goodness for technology though because they can Skype as often as they want to! I forsee many Skype lunch dates in the future! Here's a picture of the kids with Jay and Elaine while they were in Bethany for the last time before leaving for Germany.
