Bible trivia - TO THE DEATH!!! 

Uncle Andrew and Annabelle with chocolate or something on her teeth, but cute picture anyway.

The guys, playing their guitars... ALL night long!!! Just kidding, then we played Scene It but the battery in our camera died so this is the memory.

Cell party. We came, we saw, we ate pizza. 

Our cell group, fellowship time. This was a really great night! 

The kitties always fight it seems except on this day when they snuggled and slept together for hours. How cute!

Visiting at our house

So, after the airport we came over to our place and Andrew handed out gifts like it was Christmas. He is not supposed to bring gifts as we are already so blessed just to have him here but this was pretty special for everyone. Thanks so much Andrew for all your generosity. 

Gifts straight from South Korea for the kids. They love these!

Andrew's arrival to Canada

Well, on January 25th Andrew arrived in Canada from South Korea. We all went up to the airport to welcome him. It was so great for all his neices and nephews and on top of seeing Uncle Andrew again, they also got to go for a truck ride around on the runway with one of the men who work at the airport. Uncle Marky set that up. It was an all around great night and we look forward to Andrew's stay in Canada.

Our neice Caitlin with her dolly that she caught last weekend. Adam was going out for a quick hour of fishing and picked Caitlin up on the way. He caught 2 dollies and she caught one. She isn't a big fish eater so she gave us her's. What a blessing! Nice fish Cait! 

Letter from a Friend

I just had to write to tell you how much I love you and care for you. Yesterday, I saw you walking and laughing with your friends; I hoped that soon you'd want Me to walk along with you, too. So, I painted you a sunset to close your day and wispered a cool breeze to refresh you. I waited - you never called - I just kept on loving you.

As I watched you fall asleep last night, I wanted so much to touch you. I spilled moonlight onto your face - trickling down you cheeks as so many tears have. You didn't even think of me; I wanted so much to comfort you.

The next day I exploded a brilliant sunrise into glorious morning for you. But you woke up late and rushed off to work - you didn't even notice. My sky became cloudy and My tears were the rain.

I love you. Oh, If you'd only listen. I really love you. I try to say it in the quiet of the green meadows and in the blue sky. The wind whispers My love throughout the treetops and spills it into vibrant colors of all the flowers. I shout it to you in the thunder of the great waterfalls and compose love songs for birds to sing to you. I warm you with the clothing of My sunshine and perfume the air with nature's sweet scent. My love for you is deeper than any ocean and greater than any need in your heart. If you'd only realize how I care.

My Dad sends His love. I want you to meet Him- He cares, too. Fathers are just that way. So, please call on Me soon. No matter how long it takes. I'll wait - because I love you.


Your Friend,

Jesus

The first cut!!!

Joel was in need of a haircut so I finally took him for his first cut. He was really good and it turned out nice. Not too short and he looks really cute! My hair dresser Barb always does a great job! 

 

Joel, not impressed with me for taking pictures at such a time! 

 

The finished product. What a handsome boy! 

Joel's haircut and I am just about to sit down for mine. 

the kids all playing with the train. Annabelle is the tunnel!
