A new start....




I know we aren't in Mexico any more but I have been told by may people that we need to update this blog and let people know that we are still here and what we are doing! We here we go! We now have 2 boys. Benjamin and Joshua they are a gift from God and we are so thankful for them both! I (Julie) am back to work but I am currently off, but going back to work in 6 weeks! We are currently based in Cliftonpark Avenue Baptist.

Back to work!

I have started back to work a month now! I have enjoyed it but I have also found it hard so many things have changed, but at the same time there are days where I feel that I haven't been away! Everyone has been lovely and helped me so much! My prayer is that I can use this time to serve God ! Please pray for the travelling and as we work out a few teething problems with child care etc! I feel blessed to have my job as things in every area of work at the minute are unsure!

Ballygomartin Baptist Church!!!!!!

This is were we call home now! Since January, Jonny has been working away with the church, both on a Sunday preaching and also all other wee things he can do! He is loving it and so are we as a family! Ben is loving Sunday school and has now started to do the actions to 'He made the stars to shine!'. Everyone has welcomed us in with open arms and we are excited about our time here! Please check out there web site and if you are in the area call in! Please pray for us as a family but espically for Jonny as he works along side the leadership in the church for wisdom and leading for the work within the church and the surrounding area! I have included there website and from it you can also get podcasts of the servies!

Ben Walking



On Christmas day Ben decided there was no way he could leave either of the two balloons down that he had on his hand for fear that might happen to them. So he had no hands left to be able walk round the furniture. The only left one thing to go for it! So he did, it has really been this last month that crawling is now gone and he wants to walk everywhere! We are so thankfully for his wee life! He is becoming a wee man and each day learning something new which keeps us all entertained! I have included a few photos of him over the last few months!

It's been 2 months!!!!!!!

Its has been two months since I managed to update this blog! Nightmare!!!!!!!!
I really am sorry! Things have been made I will try and bring you up to date on what has been going on with the hope that I can get pictures to follow after!

Of course there have been many other things in between but as I sit here, that is all the big things I can think of for the minute! I will try and fill you in the following posts and then hopefully I will get back into the swing of blogging again!

More Parties but not the birthday type!




We have an Irons' party every year! At Christmas time, we all have a meal together followed by some games and then Santa comes! As you can see Ben isnt sure what to make of Santa, hopefully he will feel better about him next year?????

More Parties..



Nannie had a birthday party for me with cousin Jackson, and Uncle Craig, and Aunty Christine. I also had a party with a pinata that aunty Laura and Uncle Ash made. Granny has those photos so they will follow some time soon! I also tried to add a few other Mexican traditions in! Not sure how they will take off!
