One of the things I have enjoyed greatly is the home that the church has provided for us. It has been wonderful being able to have a place to call ours. I have also enjoyed having the privacy for taking care of the girls. I never thought I would enjoy living in the country (Northland doesn't count). I have loved being out here away from the busy city. I have even enjoyed drinking milk straight from the cow -- something I said I would never do since we used to get farm fresh milk when I was a little girl. Amazingly, Lydia has even been able to drink the milk. She can't even drink store milk without throwing up. What a blessing that the Lord has allowed her to be able to digest the milk! We only have one can of formula left, and formula up here costs about $30 a can. I am excitedly amazed at how the Lord has been meeting our needs since we have arrived here.
Here is a picture of our new home. It is a three bedroom farmhouse. The people at the church have graciously supplied us with furniture, dishes, cookwear, and a host of other things for us to use including a variety of toys for the girls. We are blessed to be able to work with such a wonderful group of people here.
Having the huge front yard has been such a blessing since I can send Kara outside without having to be right there with her. This has been especially wonderful when I am fixing dinner (usually Kara's grumpy time).

We praise the LORD for how HE is working in the lives of our children and grandchildren. What hope HE provides knowing HE knows the future and holds it all in HIS hand. Maybe you are in good hands with Allstate, But the greatest hands to be in is in the Hands of the LORD. We love ya much JA, Tracy, Kara, and Lydia. We miss you a lot. Dad, Mom, Opa, Oma
