Family Christmas Pictures 2019

Keeping it simple this year.

Countdown to Christmas

Doing special things in December requires creativity. Looking for opportunities to be a blessing, spend time as a family and make some good memories.

Cute Alert!

Vehicle Trouble...

2019 was a year of major repairs for all 3 vehicles, plus tires for all 3. When I left for Georgia Scott's work truck was starting to act up. Diagnosis: needs a new transmission, etc. So, after praying, seeking counsel and researching a decision was made. No more money into the old truck... thankful for the new one. Praying it lasts for a long time!

Back with my favourite Canadian!

Thankful for the time in Georgia, but thankful to back home!

Surprise Party for My Mom!!!

Last month I flew to Georgia. My mom was turning 70 and we wanted to surprise her. She didn't know Luke and I were coming or about the party:).

We had a wonderful time and made a lot of great memories!

Surprise Party!!!

This year we decided to try something new. We threw a surprise party for Garrison. He officially turns 13 tomorrow, but we had a great time setting up his birthday early. We almost gave it away at one point, which is understandable once one of the siblings finds out what's going on. Here are some moments captured from last Saturday:

Caleb and Elyssia kept making waffles once I had all the batter made.

Special "supper in bed" since his party was at supper time. He had his specially requested waffles with salmon sauce and syrup.

Joe really liked having tires in the living room. All the gifts were greatly appreciated by the birthday boy and we barely had any room for the carrot cake! Afterwards we had some party games:). Musical tires and Pin the License Plate on The Chevy. Thankful for the opportunity to celebrate this young man.

Last days with the kittens...

They've all gone to their new home now.

Happy 15th Elyssia!

Missionary Friends from Poland

Hard to believe it's been over 9 years since they were here last! Wonderful to hear about all the Lord has been helping g them with over in Poland. To see pictures of those the Lord has brought into their lives through the years. Thankful for their faithfulness!
