Our seminar in Northern California wrapped up so well. God really is working there and it is always exciting to be a part of it. We really were spoiled with dinners, gifts and play dates. Seminars like this make traveling on the road so much easier. To see people get baptized before we leave is exactly why we do this though. When people find Christ and fall in love with Him, that is amazing for us to witness!We get three nights to stay at our own home before we head up to Northern British … [Read more...]

Pen Pal
While we were out on the coast of Washington, at the NW most tip of the contiguous United States, we decided to throw a letter in a bottle out to sea. I know, it is not the most environmentally friendly thing to do, but my husband was so excited that one day our Princess could have a pen pal somewhere, that we did it.We joked that maybe it would just wash back on the shore of Neah Bay, Washington. But that would be okay too. My Princess was so excited as we got the letter ready, put it in the … [Read more...]
Cape Flattery
While we were out at Neah Bay, Washington we were able to visit the most NW tip of the contiguous United States– Cape Flattery. What a walk! Wait, first let me tell you about the weather. It is cold, foggy and windy. Always it seems. The hubster and I made a bet to see who could guess how low the temperature would go. I won! 53 degrees. In July. Crazy! But I was thankful on the walk up that is was not hot. The walk down (only 1/2 mile downhill) was lovely. Lots of stairs, tree stumps for … [Read more...]
Canoe Journey 2010: Extended Camping?
Extended camping with a toddler for ten days? Am I crazy? Okay, we have arrived at our destination on Monday – the Makah Indian Reservation. Whew! What a long week. I was definitely ready to be done camping. If you know me you will know that I am not a big camping kind of girl. A weekend camping trip is about all that I can handle, usually. So ten days of camping was getting old! But what a trip. You get such a sense of awe and humility when you watch all the canoes land with hundreds and … [Read more...]
Canoe Journey 2010: Paddle to Makah
Can you imagine paddling a canoe for a week, maybe even more? Well, at least 100 canoes are going to be doing it this week. And I am on the ground crew for my family’s canoe, The Salmon Dancer. The Princess and I will be helping Nana set up camp, cook, and clean. I am not sure if I will like it or not. But I am sure that the Princess is going to LOVE camping all week. One more thing I know: I will have lots of stories and photos to share with you when I get back next week. … [Read more...]

We are excited! Please continue … [Read more...]
