This weekend was very busy, but quite wonderful! We were bustling about getting ready for the Christmas supper at the church, last minute baking, etc...
We almost didn't make it to the morning service. The wind and snow were blowing through the night and the drifts across the road were incredible! It was like hitting waves in a speedboat, only we were driving a minivan and they were snowdrifts;).
The kids were well behaved at church, which is always a huge blessing:).
We came home in the afternoon to bake the pies and put get the Turkey soup. The drive back to town the second time was MUCH better! I'm very thankful for all the ladies who were helping. It made the whole experience a lot more enjoyable and the fellowship was a blessing.
We met some new people and enjoyed fellowship with some that we hadn't seen in awhile. The weather was -21 and may have kept some people home, but we thank the Lord for those that came and look forward to seeing what the Lord will do in the year ahead.
Merry Christmas to all our family and friends that we can't be with tomorrow!

Life changes so quickly...
In the midst of an exciting day some of the Hutterite girls came up to let me know that my friend, Miriam, lost her baby boy today. This is the 3rd baby that she has miscarried in the past 8 years. Feeling sad at her loss and praying for healing for her and the family. I know that they were REALLY looking forward to this new little one. She was further along this time and thought that they'd be holding the new little one in the New Year. Looking forward to meeting this little boy in Heaven and praying for wisdom to be a comfort to a friend...
Hoping they win the competition!
Jason put this video together for a competition that the school entered. Cameryn is singing and Chandler is playing the drums:). Proud sister/Auntie moment!
