Holy Cow

Well folks, it has officially been over a year since I posted ANYthing.  That means that probably nobody will read this.  Oh well.  If I had done a Christmas card for 2011 it would probably read something like this:

2011 has been a generally pleasant year.  We have kept busy between work, school, and friends.  We volunteer together on Sunday mornings in the 1 year old class, and enjoy our small goup/Sunday School time.  We also tried out our green thumbs with a raised veggie/fruit garden.  The strawberries and bell peppers were the best!

Lynn was promoted to Work Director of her team in Wells Fargo's Home Preservation Settlement team, and is thriving on the responsibility. It is a very transitory department, so her bosses rely heavily on her knowledge.  This fall she joined the church choir.  She loves the fellowship that worshiping together has fostered in this group!  She even got to sing a solo/duet in the Christmas Night of Worship program.  (See our very crude video/audio below)
Her beloved grandfather (Pop-Pop) passed away in September, but our Gracious God provided some sweet/healing family time as we all converged on Cape Coral, Florida for the services.  It is still difficult at times.  Thankfully we have the confort of knowing that he is with the Lord, as well as the peace that He provides as The great Comforter. 
We're looking forward to the arrival of her first (on her side of the family) nephew, Rivers, in January!

Luke's classes have gone very well, he's loving all the philosopy classes.  It's loking like his graduation will happen in December 2012.  He is still planing to pursue his Doctorate in Philosophy (with the end goal of teaching along the lines of philosphy/logic/metaphysics).  We had a great time at Frontier Camp in East Texas this summer as he spoke to Teen Week A about the book of James.  We love getting to connect with the campers, staff, and (our favorite) the other Hendersons!  We were able to meet his newest niece Sarah in her first few weeks of life!  (She followed in the other niece's footsteps and fell instantly in love with her Uncle Luke...that man has a gift!)
He continues to earn the title of  "Best Husband Ever" as he juggles the delicate balance of school/work/ministry/husband & home.  He spoils Lynn nonstop by surprising her with a clean home & cooked supper on her return from work a few nights each week!

We are praising the Lord for his presence, love, protection, and blessings in 2011!
