We are in the second year of our internship experience at Willow Creek. During this season of our lives we are attempting to balance Seminary work, caring for a sweet little baby girl and still adjusting to life away from our friends and family. We couldn't be more excited about all that God has in store for us!
This blog will be our attempt to share the struggles and joys of this experience...as well as some pictures and an occasional video. We welcome your feedback and comments and will do our best to keep up with the blog on a regular basis!
I just moments ago sent out an email that was boasting of the pictures of Keri, and they are here I promise...just scroll down to the previous post if you're looking for them! We are finally very close to being totally settled in our house (all but the bedrooms) and picture ready so I thought I would welcome you into the house that we call home right now! We have been so blessed by a couple that attends Willow to be able to stay here and have the pleasure of living two houses down from this amazing couple! We live in a split level house so our "living room" (see TV) is actually in the basement, while the kitchen, dining room and "other living room area" (see two couches) is on the middle level and the un-pictured bedrooms are upstairs. For those of you super-observant people, we didn't put the couches downstairs because they wouldn't fit! It's just one of the many charms of this cute little house! I believe we have outside pictures on a previous post. (The pictures are a bit out of order. Blogger and I are having issues getting pictures to post as I want them!) Again, welcome to our Mount Prospect home!

Nice place!! It looks like it will keep you nice and cozy during those long, cold, and snowy winters. What is that on the top of the fridge, Whey Protien and Bisquick? Now Marc, no matter what you feed Keri, your children will never be more athletically gifted than you are! Sorry! ;) I am just glad that we ware all fortunate enough not to see any underwear laying around!
Real funny Crizo! She may be limited by my atheletic ability, but at least she has a chance of being over 5'9"! Don't worry about the underwear, I keep it all in the room that you and Timea will be staying in when you come for Thanksgiving!
I love the house. It looks like the floor plan is almost exactly like Ollie's (my husband) brother's house in Arlington Heights. Did you know that Ollie's family all live in Arlington Heights?
We have been married for almost three and a half years and have been loving every day of it! Keri is the Director of Operations for Student Impact at Willow. I am getting ready to start my second year of the Intership program at Willow and am working as a Classes Teacher and curriculum developer. I am also enjoying life as a Seminary student at Bethel Seminary in St. Paul, MN. We also were blessed with the birth of our first child on February 6th, 2009...Leah Olivia! She is so beautiful and is growing up faster than we could have imagined.

'Dust mopping' the hardwood floors, nice and easy; cleaning?, watch out for your back, Marc.

I love your house, it is so unique and cute. I love the way your kitchen table fit so perfectly into that little nook area.
