Another Arp Whirlwind!

I think every time I post I say we have been busy here at the Arp house. You would think I would just get used to it and eventually all our busy-ness would seem normal, but no such luck. The last month has been yet another whirlwind. It started with Andrew heading to South Africa, and the kids and I heading to Chattanooga for some much needed help while he was away. For 3 wks we were separated. Andrew went with another pastor from our church to help resource and teach a conference to the people in South Africa. He had the time of his life. He really fell in love with all the people, and he loved being able to see the world. Meantime, Jonas, Ainsley, and I braved the friendly skies to go visit all our family down in Chattanooga. We got to see everyone and we even got meet the newest member of our family baby Ella, and Ainsley and I attended Mitchell and Angela's wedding. It was an awesome time with family, but we couldn't wait to get our little family back together. Since being back we have celebrated our first Halloween with Ainsley (who dressed as a kitty cat, while Jonas chose his costume for the first time; a transformer) and we have gotten back into the swing of things. We are getting ready to celebrate Jonas' birthday with a trip to Splash Village (an indoor waterpark/hotel about 20min. north of us). Soon it will be thanksgiving and before we know it Christmas will be here. We can't wait to see all our family again. Thanks to everyone for all the help while Andrew was away...you really made the time fly! We will post pics soon of Halloween, Jonas' Birthday, and Thanksgiving soon. We love you all!
