On our way to the top of Old Baldy

We made it!




I loved our morning bike rides filled with wild turkeys.





Thankful for sunny and hot afternoons to be able to swim in the Frio River.




Brian found a rope swing and the boys loved it!









Not the best fishing, but with views like that can you really complain!?!




Savoring every moment!




I’m so grateful we were able to take this trip as a family and with the Loucks. I was constantly in awe of God’s beauty all around us, and His faithfulness and provision for this gift of time! So much fun and so many memories. We loved Garner! ❤️🧡❤️🧡

Hartz2020 Week 47

                                A little bit of what we have been up to Nov. 16-22...

Earlier this week we learned that Brian will be having open heart surgery to fix his aortic aneurysm. Despite this news, we are thankful.
THANKFUL for...
🍁Dr. Ruel’s wisdom and answers
🍃Prayers and encouragement from family and friends
🍂God’s faithfulness, promises, and peace
❤️Each other
Brian’s surgery is scheduled for December 10. He won’t be returning to work after Thanksgiving break and will be out for a while. Please pray we all stay healthy so he can have surgery. Your prayers mean so much to us!

Decorating the tree and house for Christmas

They love looking at their past ornaments!

Such great helpers!

One of my students brought a gift for Brian. It was filled with Dove Dark Chocolates. So sweet!

Brian always does a great job on my nails!
