Focusing on the Light of Christ
Life during a pandemic has been very difficult! We keep working on focusing on our Savior to find his peace. Finding beautiful photos of him is one of those endeavors that I worked on this month.
With the snow coming and Kent loosing weight I think he realized just how cold I have been all these years. He decided I needed a new coat and long John's to get me through the winter. We also had a huge nudge from Marshal to get more items to decorate this year and with all the sadness going on we thought that more lights and Christmas cheer was well worth our money.
Happy Birthday Cort!
Cort had his 10th birthday which lead to...
lots...
and lots...
and lots...
of photos!
It was so fun to watch the progression of Cort over the years!
What a good...
ten...
years...
it...
has...
been!
Happy Birthday Cort!
After sorting through all those photos this is the collage that made it to Facebook.
Life in November
Top Left: I found Martha behind me on my zoom call...oops! Top Left Middle & Bottom Left: Kent had a killer hand playing Qwirkle. He got four Qwirkles and he was on his 3rd set of tiles when he finished his turn with six Qwirkles! Top Right Middle: Marshal is learning to right sentences and he wanted to make sure that we knew he loved us. For a kid that keeps us on our toes he sure is sweet! Top Right: With this new diet we have been looking for more ways to cook veggies. We found this recipe for green beans that we really like. Center Left: Marshal likes to work on projects. Here he is in the middle of another project. Bottom Left Middle: Marshal wrote himself a note to remember not to sneak down and play on the WiiU in the mornings. Bottom Right Middle: After learning about Kent's Grandma George (Lula Maude Warren) I realize that's whose photo was hanging in one of the bedrroms in Pam's house. Center Right: It will be interesting to come compare where things are in 4 years after we have a Democrat run the country. Bottom Right: I have enjoyed working on these marketing campaigns with WiO foods. These chips really are #1!
Top Left: I had to chuckle a little when I saw the stash of toilet paper and paper towels at Pam and Lloyd's house. Top Left Middle: Marshal enjoyed helping Kent with the leaves service project. Top Right Middle: Our Gratitude Turkey was quite thankful this year. Top Right: The emergency alerts about Covid are becoming really annoying. If people aren't going to listen I'm not sure this alert is going to magically stop them. Plus it's Thanksgiving can we just enjoy a day of gratitude with our families? Bottom Left: Kent's elk turned out really cool. We have enjoyed it. Bottom Left Middle: Doesn't every date night end in a trip to the store for ammo? Bottom Right Middle: There's a lot of comments about voter fraud going on right now. I sure hope they get to the bottom of this. Center Right: Through Covid Rebekah (mostly) and I have given the young women "heart attacks" on their doors. It's been fun to celebrate them this way. Bottom Right: This seems to be the state of where we are today. I worry for the direction of our country but I will leave it in God's hands and pray for his help.
Beautiful November
“Fall colors are funny. They’re so bright and intense and beautiful. It’s like nature is trying to fill you up with color, to saturate you so you can stockpile
it before winter turns everything muted and dreary.”

to have put there just for the beauty of it.”
