First Snow!

The lake is alway beautiful in the morning...But, I think evenmore so when there is snow everywhere!

The houses are all covered

Looking across to Blodell

Looking out over the church to the lake...So beautiful!

All I want for Christmas is....

...my two front teeth! Why is so much more fun to report the loss of teeth, when you get to use that little song? I love it! Gabriel has had little wiggly teeth for a while now and they have finally fallen out! What a handsome little man!

Movin' On Up...

We've begun the process of moving into our new house! Our church has a rental house that they have graciously decided to let us live in. I'm so excited to finally live in a house! We will be offline for a bit, so sorry if you don't hear from me for a while. We will do most of our moving over the weekend and will begin staying there next week. It's an older home (built 1910), with lots of character and just enough space for our family. More photo's to come of the house, but to wet your pallet a little here is a photo I stole off google maps taken from in front of our church...


Not a bad view to get up to every morning, huh? The only difference from the picture will be our beautiful church in between us and the lake. Ahh, God is good!

Still no job yet, will keep everyone posted. I hope everyone has a blessed Thanksgiving and holiday season!

Answer to my question....

A friend of mine pointed out to me that I forgot to blog the answer to my little trivia question...

Q: What/Where is this picture....

A: That is the Washington Public Power Supply System (WPPSS pronounced woops LOL) and it is located outside a town call Satsop, WA in Grays Harbor County. We passed it on the highway out to Ocean Shores. I've seen this place many times in my travels of the state and I just laugh at the wastefulness of it. WPPSS built this and the Hanford Nuclear site, went over budget, took too long and ended up not even using this facility due to the fact that hydro power was much more efficient and better enviromentally for our area.
