Skiing Trip to the NC Mountains

 
Jeff and Denise Neigel along with their two daughters Karlie and Lyndsy, invited Brad, Beth, Savanna and Ali to join them for a skiing trip to the NC mountains.  Neither Savanna nor Ali had ever skied before, but they still had a wonderful time in the snow.
 
The slopes at Sugar Mountain in Banner Elk, NC
 
Now which one is Savanna and which one is Ali?
Even more important, who is that sitting on her "butt" after a fall? 
 
 
Can you tell by the eyes?
 
Now we can tell which one is which - this is Ali

Pesach / Passover
 
Ali, Savanna, and their parents attend Covenant Bible Church in Lincolnton, NC - as do their maternal grandparents.  Beit Yeshua (a Messianic Jewish-Roots group at Covenant) hosts a Pesach/Passover Seder at the church annually.  Brad, Beth, Savanna and Ali are always there.  Ali's grandfather, Curtis Loftin, co-leads Beit Yeshua.
 
Curtis works with last-minute preparations at the low-seating tables
 
Praise & Worship, along with Israeli Folk Dance, is always part of the Passover experience
 
Ali loves to participate in the Israeli Folk Dance (in the orange & white shirt)
 
The dancers lift up praise to the LORD - Beth & Brad are at the top right side of this photo

NC Zoo

 
The Loftin and Seese Families  went to the N.C. Zoo in Asheboro, NC, on 02 May 2015. 
It had been years since any of us had been there - and it was the first trip for Kayli.
 
 

Savanna, Kayli & Ali get ready to head into the African Safari followed by the North American Safari later in the day
Learning where the animals come from in Africa

 
 

And off they go - We were fortunate enough to have our own personal "tour guide", Brad

Philip and Brad had as much fun with the sculpted animals as Kayli did

    
 

No - No one fell in - Everyone just stopped to look at all the turtles in the lake

 

One last photo of the family

 

The animals were fun, but the best part of the day was being with family

 
 
 
The Loftin Family Reunion
 
The annual Loftin Family Reunion was held on Sunday, 17 May 2015 in the Family Life Center of the Catawba Methodist Church in Catawba, NC

Constructing Kayli's Play Set
 
Because Kayli enjoyed the play set at Catawba so much, her parents decided to invest in one for home.
The Loftin & Seese families were invited over during Memorial Day weekend to help with the construction.
 
The playset was constructed near Kayli's playhouse and the family swing

Covenant Bible Church Youth Trip
 
Ali & Savanna joined the other youth from Covenant Bible Church for a trip to Myrtle Beach, SC, in July of 2015.  The hardest part of the trip for the girls was giving up their cell phones for several days.  Aaron Grooms is the Youth Pastor at Covenant.
 
The girls are in the middle-right part of this photo toward the top - can you find them?
 
 
 
Family Photos at Poppi & Nonni's House
 
Poppi (Curtis Loftin) decided that he hadn't taken many photos of Alexandria & Savanna lately and decided to take some on Sunday, 26 Jul 2015, when the Seese Family came over to his house after church.

DEDICATION

 
 

Ali, I love you so very much.  Every photo that I've added to this page made me smile - and reminded me just how special you are.  You're kind, sweet and gentle.  May you always follow after the ways of the LORD and may you grow up to serve Yeshua/Jesus with zeal and passion.  Only "true" happiness comes from Him.  Love you, Poppi.
