Since we didn't get out a Christmas picture or any cards, I am going to post a bunch of pictures on my blog instead!! We trust that you had a wonderful Christmas observing the birth of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords! We love all of you and pray for you regularly. This year has given us many opportunities to trust our Lord to take care of our needs physically, financially, and most of all spiritually! He is so gracious and loving - giving us above and beyond what we need. He provided a wonderful new home and a fabulous trip to Washington (both in August). We are praying for a job for Rich that will provide us with a way to meet our obligations. We know that He has something in His plan for us!  We stayed in this cute apartment above Lloyd's shop. Derrick and Susie spent Friday evening through Sunday afternoon with us. On Sat. we went to the Oregon coast and to the Tillemook Cheese Factory.  Debbie took us sight seeing on Monday...

Rich and I were able to drive to visit some friends in Washougal, Washington where we met up with Derrick and Susie Robinson. The first few pictures were of us driving along the Columbia River - the view was gorgeous! When we arrived at Lloyd and Debbie's home, we were delighted with their beautiful property, stunning views, and amazing hospitality!

I can't update my blog without a picture of my sweet grandsons! I went out to visit them and their mama yesterday. When Daddy came home with his new phone, they had to check it out!

I hope that you feel like you have come for a visit. The coffee is on and I made brownies from scratch yesterday. We also have fruit and veggies for the health conscious (as we are trying to be as the new year approaches!). The upstairs has our bedroom, our guest/grandson bedroom, and my office. I am showing you my office in it's shocking disorder:-) That way you will know that it is used ALOT! I haven't done too many craft projects this year because of church and school responsibilities and because I've been sick since Dec. 15:-) but I use it alot nonetheless! Our bedroom - Rich hasn't put up our valance yet but he has done all of the other window treatments in the house! Here is my office. I am in the midst of making an ornament.  This is our guest/Henry and Jack's room. Their toys are all in the closet!!! We have another cot to put out if you come and visit. Actually, we would give you our room and we would sleep in the guest room - PLEA...

Well, after a looooonnnnggg hiatus, I am back to bringing you an update on our life in Meridian, ID. My camera disappeared for several months so I had no pictures to share. Life has also been very busy. However, I promised Gail that I would post some pictures of our house so she could see where we live now:-)\ I put the pictures in order as you walk into the house. Rich's office is in the living room. I'll show those pictures in the next post.
