7 Weeks later......
Greetings to all my faithful blog readers!
I hope this post finds you all warm and enjoying the family togetherness of the season. :)
God has been doing some exciting things in my life in the past few months and drawing together the strings of two dreams of mine.
Over a year ago I sat down with dad and made a list of the things I wanted to do with my life, near the top of that list was going on a short term missions trip. I started praying that God would open the doors and send an opportunity my way if it was His will for me. For about 6 months nothing happened until I read about an opportunity on the Rebelution Forum to go to Sinaloa Mexico and help put the roof on the Coult Family's house. Long story short I leave a week from today for almost two weeks in Mexico! God is so good! I have been continually awed at the precision of His ways and how He has brought every little detail together so perfectly!
Three days after I return home from Mexico (Jan 15th-16th) my church is hosting a Rebelution video conference of which I am the head coordinator. Ever since I got involved with the Rebelution in 2006 I have wanted to bring them to Omaha. When Dad and I went to their conference in Des Moines, IA the summer of 08 I was completely hooked! When Mr.Nelson asked me to coordinate the video conference at Millard Alliance Church I was excited and very nervous. Once again God took my original plan, tripled it, and then sent it far and wide. He provided willing volunteers and people to help me plan. ( I never knew how many details went into these things!)
By the way...there is still room to register for the conference and we would love to have you! It is $10 per person at the door and you can RSVP to: omaha2010rebelution@gmail.com . If you would like to come but cannot afford the fee just let us know and we are happy to offer assistance. :) (*shamless plug..I know I know*)
God has been so good to me this year and as it ends I am excited to see what lies beyond the sunrise!

Another picture that makes me catch my breath.
Look into his eyes; what do you see?
Dung flingers...
Project: cleaning out the old chicken poo..er..coop.
We considered applying for sainthood, but unfortunately they were out of halos.
Thomas Edison moment:
Puts a whole new meaning to the phrase: "If you've got any poo... fling it now."
Sometimes I look at us and all I can think is... wow... (take that however you like)
If only she knew....
John was helping Leah fix the fence and his run across the pasture to get her something was just so adorable!
Tada! Us!
When I went to pick mom up from the airport I came up this hill and all this was packed full about 15 ft high. That is when I turned around and took another route. :)
On my way I went through a few passages in the drifts that were barely wide enough for me to fit. The snow came up on both sides to the top of the mirrors on the big van...
Town :)
I am so blessed to have 3 wonderful hard working gentlemen around here to go out in the frigid temperatures and blade the lane!
And a wonderful sidewalk shoveler!
Ahhhhh I love the sight of that on weeks like this one!
Dont'cha all want to move to Nebraska!

When it comes to deciding what to wear for weddings there is no constructive fashion critic better than dad! He also took the picture for us... Thanks Dad! <3

I am working on launching the new look for my blog but I accidentally reverted the old look to the original. Gotta love the domesticated child trying to be a nerd.... :-\
I am sorry about the poll text; I cannot for the life of me figure out how to change the text color... so if you need to see what it says, highlight it ;-)
Stay tuned for the new (and more awesome) look! :D
Our newest feature
"Quote of the Day"
My goal here is to post one quote each day that was particularly excellent, witty, brilliant, or just plain amusing! Mainly I will be quoting family, but really, anything that I come across and is worth passing along could show up. ;-)
The quotes will appear on the top right of the page and eventually will have a link below where the archives are stored.
I am going to try to post one each day but don't get mad at me if I forget! Just look at it this way; if I do not post a quote it is because our day was very boring or VERY exciting. ;-)
My computer power cord accidentally got taken to Massachusetts in the wedding blur... all my pictures are on my currently battery dead computer.
I will blog, facebook, and everything once my power cord returns... :-)
