    You know - speaking of photos. A few years ago I mentioned that outside looked like a frozen, sparkling, ice covered fairyland. You asked to see pictures. I must tell you that (*face turns red, head hangs down in embarrassment) I accidentally deleted the photos! At the same time, I also deleted photos of my children while in Hawaii. Great sadness. I actually cried. So, I am on the lookout to get some pics of any icy time - that's sparkles and will send pics then.

Bittersweet...

Well, as most of you probably already know, today, Jesber is (are?) making the voyage across the pond to Ramstein, Germany. We will miss them very much, but we know that with prayer and God's help, they will further His purpose in their new home.

I ask for your prayers for their safe travel and that the Lord's work would flourish in and around Ramstein.

This will also be one of the biggest changes our family has ever seen, as we have always lived in the same state (with a couple brief stints in Florida at FC). Please pray, as we are, that we will trust the Lord during this time of change, and that we will come out stronger through this test.

Thank you to all who have supported and continue to support our family in so many ways during this transition. We are forever grateful :)

Lastly, I leave you with a few recent photos...

Looks like they made it!

  • carolattheriver
    Aww.. I know you will miss them dearly and we will, too! I hope that they can help spread the word in Germany. What a blessing that will be to so many!

    Prayers for all of you and blessings on your family. I know you and Jaquelin will enjoy visiting. Must be an epidemic, I have friends whose children are headed to Singapore and Thailand. Both of my children would go in a heartbeat if given the opportunity of a short term assignment. They love adventure and have fallen in love with travel.
