Hello everyone! I hope your New Year is going well so far. We have been extremely fortunate so far in our area of the USA, we have had a very very mild winter and in fact the temps broke a record yesterday! It seems more like spring for several days then back to winter. We have not had hardly any snow, so it does not seem like REAL winter.

I have had the kids the past few days because Kristi has been sick again. I took a few pictures of the boys so thought I would post a few. They surely keep me on my toes. Please continue to pray for her. The dr. gave her a possibility of three things this could be and they are in the process of trying to find out what the problem is so they might be able to help her more.

The Wildgame Supper was in January and we again had a great turnout. There were 19 men who accepted the Lord as their Savior. We had a nice surprise this year, as Mike's brother Tim, and our good friend Bill Slone came for the Supper and spent the weekend with us. We had a really fun time, well.. they did. Joel brought his Wii over and they spent several l hours trying to outdo one another. On Monday they went hunting and Bill shot two deer to take home.

This weekend is our Sweetheart Banquet at church. The theme this year is "Take Me Out to the Ballgame!" Mike spends countless hours working on all the details of these banquets, and they always turn out so nice. These two come very close together. I am sure everyone will have a good time. We have a record number of people coming this year too.

Till next time... we love all you guys!
