Playing Catch Up

So... the blog has been silent for a little bit.  I've had good intentions of updating it but it just always got put to the bottom of the to do list.  Well today is the day of doing the stuff on the bottom of the list, it's been sitting there for two months time to get it done!  So here we go...
In October and a good part of November we were able to spend some time in Canada.  Word and Deed has speaking tours every fall and they choose one of their projects to be the keynote speakers at the dinner.  This year the project was Adoration Christian Centre and so Randy and myself did some of the dinners while Kim did the others.  And since we were in Canada we got to enjoy time some special time with friends and family.

Thank you to all those who helped make our trip enjoyable.  We did a whirlwind dinner tour on the West Coast and a lot of different people helped to accomodate us and give us a vehicle, Thank You!  Also thanks to Grandma and Grampa and Oma and Opa and Aunt Cole for looking after our kiddos while we traveled around, you guys are the bestest!  And thanks to all those who attended the dinners and encouraged us in our work as well as assured us of your prayers for ourselves as well as the whole organzation, we appreciate you!
