The big kids don’t get much “air” time, so I thought I would give a peek into their world. Graham and Emma hang together most of the time, and have all mutual friends. One of their favorite things to do is to have a bunch of friends over to play some games and eat {and eat and eat. Did I mention they eat? Lots.} Sometimes they head outside to build a bonfire and sit around for hours laughing and talking. 
This is Spencer….and he is Graham’s bud….we have threatened to declare him on our income tax each year….sweet kid….and always so sweet to our little ones….
Vanessa is heading to Africa with them this trip….
Ben went last year with the team to Africa…..

Playing Catch Phrase…Dw & I laugh and laugh listening to them scream and laugh…
This particular night they decided to make cutting Tim’s hair a group effort….

This particular night they decided to make cutting Tim’s hair a group effort….and Rebekah started off….
And different kids took a “whack” at it….
And in the end….Tim was happy, and that’s all that mattered…

So much fun!!!!
I love teens too!!!
Tim is one brave boy! I love to listen to teens, almost as fun and listening to 4 y.o.'s (don't tell them)
That is such a great post, Linn. There is nothing as precious as teenagers who love the Lord and are not ashamed to live for Him in this very contrary world. Go, go, go, Emma and Graham and all your friends!!!
I can only hope and pray this is what my home will look like in the very near future! Olivia will be 13 in September! I don't know if I'm all that ready for the teen years. May really need your help and guidance soon!
What a precious post!

Love this post!
We sometimes get some big kids at our house playing games, eating dinner, etc. (even though we don't have any of our own teenagers yet!). Our kids love it. The teenagers get a barage of hugs and excitement when they walk in the door.
Blessings,
