Merry Christmas

Christmas decoration?

We have this adorable little trunk and I had the brilliant decorating idea to lay the burgundy fleece over it, and set the laughing snowman inside. Just for looks you know. But Molly has a different idea. . . since it has a fleece in it, and all fleece is hers - obviously the trunk is her new bed. So, she shoves the snowman over (like who is he anyway?) and moves in. Comfy huh?!

Merry Christmas!

You know how the day after Christmas all you see are cars obscured by trees that are tied on the top? Well, not to be outdone by the world around him, Ron made the long trip to the storage unit to pick up our tree, tied it on the top, and brought'er home!

Yes, this means my Christmas tree is up and decorated! It appears that we will have a lighting war with the neighbors. Everyday, Ron and Joe are out adding to the externation lighting. May the richest man win!

Interesting. . .

So, in respect to my last post - here I go!

This was interesting, nice to see the verbage. I wonder if the right people will read it, like politicians and their odd friends.

Best Thing About MY Blog

The best thing about my blog is that I can say what I want without fear of retribution, or argument, or worry of being more tolerant.

Hmmm, did any of you know it was raining here? Yes, rain. I love the rain, I love the fall (and this one was BEAUTIFUL!) and I love living here in Washington.

Hiking Mt. Rainier . . . AGAIN!

Map reading

Okay, this is a picture for anyone who traveled with Ron in Europe! He once again has a map and is directing us on our hike. I don't ever worry about where we are because he always knows!

In case you don't know, Ron has an uncanny way of knowing where he always is, where he is going, and how to get back. He also can read and follow any map in any language. I don't get it, he spends a lot of time trying to get me to figure out which way is north, south, east and west. North is up, right?!

Ideas

I think that having ideas could be detrimental to my sanity. I always have a GREAT idea and then pursue it with single minded determination until I get the next great idea. Sounds kinda sad doesn't it?!

I had an idea about an online bible study, it could be fairly interactive without using any gasoline or finding a babysitter for the kiddies - but in translation I don't know if it's feasible. I know that building relationships requires interaction - face to face. I can't always see other people's faces on the computer (as of yet, I can't see through the wires - but I'm working on it). But with our busy lifestyles we need to have some form of connection that works with our own schedule, so it might not be too bad. . . hmmm. Maybe better than nothing.

It's a bbbbbbbbear in my front yard
