Winter Wonderland!

We are really enjoying the snow here...it's beautiful! I spoke to my mom and they have a dusting there in N.Y.. I am posting a new picture album. You will see a creek and a bridge and then a pipe coming out of a box in the creek...that is where we get our fresh spring water from. I went down today and got some and thought you would enjoy the walk with me.

Happy Thanksgiving

We were quite busy getting ready for our BIG Thanksgiving Feast away from home! This was our first...yes first Thanksgiving away from our families. This year we had dinner with 44 members of our new family! What a great time we had together. A second year student, Liz, and I planned for our dinner that would take place at 6 pm Thanksgiving Evening. We had classes as usual because in Canada it was just another day. I started baking and cooking at Noon and along with everyone bringing food we had quite a feast. What a wonderful evening we had and so thankful for the relationships that we are able to build. Oh, we ate...turkey, ham, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, green beans, cranberry sauce and bread...and lots and lots and lots of dessert! YUM!

Did someone say SNOW?

We were all quite excited to wake up Monday morning to our first snow fall. It stayed around all day and snowed a little on and off all week. It's Thursday and snowing once again...someone put a shovel on the porch but there are no instructions! UM! I guess we will be using it sooner than we thought. Thank God for His perfect timing in the change of seasons, just as He is faithful to change the seasons He is faithful to care for us.

Surprise!

We surprised our family and friends last weekend! Bill wanted to get some hunting in and it was neat to see Jen's dad, he just celebrated his 80th birthday on Oct. 31...Happy Birthday Dad! We enjoyed a fun pizza party at Jen's brother's house and Bill shot a deer...with the camera!
