All the world loves a parade...

Last week we got to enjoy our very first Lynden in Lights Christmas parade as a family. We nearly froze our poffertjes off, but we had so much fun.  We all gathered in front of Dutch Mothers Restaurant and sipped hot chocolate while watching the festive floats.  Isaiah had never even been to a parade before, so the whole night was pretty special for him... but it got even better, because not only did he get to watch the parade, but he actually got to be in the very last float (the bigsteelbox.com entry, driven by Papa)!

That was a night to remember! We loved that we could all be together for this special evening.
Love you to the moon and all the twinkling stars!

We appreciate your Prayers...

  • Praise- Our house has sold! We've been praying that we could serve internationally, "unhindered" by anything here in the states. This is a huge answer to that prayer.
  • Pray- We anticipated recieving our Religious Workers visa in January, 2 months later is still hasn't arrived. Please pray that it would come quickly so we can report to our new assignment in Melbourne, Australia.
  • Pray- that wherever we are, we will gladly share the good news of Jesus with people who haven't heard it, or didn't realize it's good news to them. Pray we would be quick to show love to those around us with our words & our actions.
  • Comfort for our extended family who already felt like Little Rock was a long, long, long way away
