Pumpkin Patch

Kirra's preschool class went to the pumpkin patch. This is the one she chose.


King of Catan

Cohl fell in love with the game of Settlers this past summer. I think we may have played it every day for about 2 months. Anyhow he definitly got the hang of it. This is a picture of the winning board when he beat me and my step dad one afternoon. Cohl was brown. GREAT JOB BUDDY!! It is so fun to see your kids find something that they love and be excited to do it and get better at it. (Cohl turned 6 this past summer)

Update from Us 5

Hello all
it's been a while since I updated. We've been in a whirlwind of events. We decided to sell our house, and did in a week with a two week escrow...then lived with my mom and step-dad for 2 1/2 months until mid October. We are now renting a lovely home in SE Fresno. I have run into some health challenges that have to be dealt with. It's slow but coming along. There are a lot of details about it but to sum it up-- overall exhaustion inside and out. So we're taking it slow and focusing on the kids and resting right now.
Speaking of the kids they are all very well! I have pictures to post but have to get the pics onto the computer...too many steps at the moment.
Hope you are all well!

Refreshing Time

We were able to get away for 3 nights and 4 days for our 10th anniversary this past summer. What a blessing! Thank you!

Pictures Again...

Our couples LG from this past summer went on a group date for our last meeting. The only rule was to have a "team uniform".We had a BLAST!
The Torres Crew...GO DOGS
The Behnings are multiplying. Her shirt had a bowling ball and his had a pin. (lol) They are expecting their second child.
Super Hero Hendersons. Always fun with them!
Cup-a-Joe Stockdales. They met at Starbucks.
Marquez Mob. They are Team Driscoll. Our study this summer was a Mark Driscoll sermon Series from Mars Hill Church
It was actually our 10th Anniversary that night. David had one of the couples bring me flowers from him :)
I made our shirts with iron-ons. They make cute iron-ons these days.
Henderson/Stockdale team won the first game

Erin and Erin and their husbands. (Oh and Cherish in the back...just noticed that.)

Pics may be a long time comin'

Hi all
Well in the selling of our house, move and relocation journey my camera cord has gone missing. So I am not so sure any pics of the Obwalds will get onto this blog.

None the less we are good. Cohl is having a great time in 1st grade, Kirra is having a great time at preschool and Jenna and I are having a great time. The SE campus of The Well is tons of fun, so alive this last Sunday with people back into the swing from summer.

Join us if you're in the neighborhood.
I don't recall adding these pics to the blog. Yes those are two sad girls who were SOOOOO excited to get their ears pierced just moments before. The tears lasted but moments and they love having them done.
I told Kirra that when she thought she was ready I would take her...Jenna was collateral damage. They give lolly pops when you cry. She was driven by sugar. I thought, "What the heck, I 'm already here."
So there you have it two sweet little girls with holes in their ears. :)

Little diamonds (fake of course)

little pink rhinestone flowers (they chose)
