Snow



Snow!! This storm that passed through Monday and Tuesday, brought us about 7" of new snow on top of the 3" that we already had. It is beautiful out. We have been blessed with no wind so the pine trees are heavy with snow. The other blessing of no wind is that the house stays warm!! We have so many windows in our home, that it cools down quickly if given proper conditions. The bummer part of the whole snow thing is that during our gale force wind storm we lost our sled!! We have hunted for it, but to no avail. So we are in the market for one, so to speak! :)

Thanksgiving was spent here at home with just the 4 of us. Our friends were unable to join us. We did knock off one of our turkeys for dinner. Good thing it did end up being just us because it was the SMALLEST turkey on record! A whopping 9 lbs! It was quite yummy though and we did get a bit of leftover sandwiches made and I made a turkey soup too.

The day after was spent putting up our Christmas tree (yes, it's a fake....) and getting everything decorated. Trevor is spending most of this next month with Bill and Leanne while he has audio therapy. I will go over next week and help out a bit with driving. Well, with him being gone, we wanted to make sure that he was apart of getting that tree up! Trevor LOVES Christmas!! Well, so does Jack, so needless to say there was a lot of crazy energy about!

We are still traveling to Twisp for church. We are looking forward to see what God has in store for us regarding a 'home' church. In the meantime we continue to pray for direction. We have not received a phone call as of yet for a foster child placement, but know that it will come probably sooner than later! We are attending a foster Christmas party on December 7. Gifts are provided for all foster kids and parents bring gifts for your biological kids. There will be a santa to pass out presents; food; games. We are all excited (especially Jack!) about meeting other foster families. (well, I think Jack is actually more excited about attending a party!)

That is it for now--

Have a blessed day!!
