Ellensburg High School Homecoming

Clara Turns Eleven

Two parties and two cakes is not too much for our now 'tween' fifth grade princess.

Grandma looks on the opening of presents at our home in Ellensburg.

Her sponsoring church from Perrysburg, OH sent this nice embroidered suitcase.

Renee made Clara's favorite cake.

And Aunt Katy made her this cake the night before in Kirkland.

Island Church of Whidbey

 After speaking to about 20 men over breakfast in Langley, WA Saturday, Scott took Josiah and I to see the oldest Cedar tree around.  They claim it's about 500 years old.  It's also hollow, and alive.

The church put us up on this beautiful beach property for two nights.

Someone at church also mentioned there was a store in Langley that sold Mongolian goods.  These are the slippers I wear which are made and Mongolia and exported by 'Mary and Martha' to...

"Music for the Eyes".  Here's the web address in case you're in the market for some good slippers ;-} http://www.musicfortheeyes.com

Josiah announced he wanted to play soccer this summer.

Here's pictures from his first game this fall.
