Hello From The Horkens


It's a wonderful time of year to get in touch with family and friends. We hope you are all doing well. David and I are enjoying our third year in the Omaha area. We are grateful for so many things--for being close to family, for health, for friends and especially for Jesus who brings us peace and joy in the midst of everything that is going on in our world.

One of our joys is having a wedding this summer!  Tim and Heather were married on June 5th. We are so glad to have Heather and her daughter, Alivia as part of our family. What a wonderful addition!



Summer also brought some fun times with the kids.....

Eliya and Hannah's competitive cheer team qualified to compete at Disney World in April. They work so hard and it paid off!!



Josiah went out for cross country this fall. Again, a lot of work is involved. We are so proud of him. He's refilling his tank here after a meet.



Teagon's Graduation- May 2015

Teagon is a freshman at the University of Nebraska Omaha. 
We are happy to have him close.

Fishing with Alivia and Jagger. The big question??
Who's going to get the biggest fish!




 Homecoming Parade- Jade

She made a beautiful queen candidate!



We are so grateful for the great friends that God has brought into our lives when we moved to the big city.

Our Lifegroup from church enjoyed a Thanksgiving dinner together in our home.



Within a three week period we "accidently" met six couples in our neighborhood. Because it was so "coincidental," we decided to get together once a month for food and fellowship. We've been doing that for over two years now and we are having a ball! 
Good friends are truly a gift from God.



As another year comes to a close, we pray that your Christmas is filled with the peace and joy that only God can truly bring.  Have a very Merry Christmas. 

Love, Dave and Karol

P.S. Love to hear from you!
