My boots!!!!

My boots!

Since our accident in 2003, due to the inflexibility of my prosthetic foot, I have been unable to find winter boots that I could get to go onto my foot.  But not this year!

This year I was able to find these nice, warm and CUTE winter boots.  My foot has been warm and cozy throughout the very cccccold and snowy winter we've been experiencing.

YAY!


AJ got braces!


These pictures were taken before and after AJ got his braces on his top teeth.  Now he has them on both top and bottom.  They are estimating that he'll need to have them on for about 18 months.  He goes on March 4th for his first tightening.  Years ago, they used to actually tighten them.  Now they replace the wire with one a little less flexible, gradually getting stronger and stronger.  I think his teeth have already moved a bit.  He was pretty uncomfortable for about three days after he got them, which I remember being pretty typical.

Sour Cream Glazed Donuts


All I can say is, "MMMMMMMMmmmmmmmm!" to homemade donuts.


It is most definitely winter in Ontario!

Snow, snow and more snow

Here are Luke and AJ in the front yard trying to take the top of the snow piles down to make room for more snow.


Jeff helping the boys.  The snow was up to their shoulders!



Sophia (our one-year-old golden retriever puppy) thoroughly enjoys the snow.  She's so much fun for me to watch and for the kids to play with in the snow.

Long Time No Blogging!

It's hard to believe that it's been almost two years since I blogged.  So much has happened in this time, there is no way that I could catch up on everything.  The most recent exciting event is the sale of our old church building and purchase of our new building!

Praise the Lord that the Division Street building is officially SOLD!


So many precious memories at the blessings of the Lord in our old building.

109 Chaffey - the new home of Beacon Baptist Church



 Our new school room on the main level with lots of big windows.

SO many people have worked many hours fixing up our new building.
It is beautiful and we are so thankful.

Wednesday, March 20th

After driving for 7.5 hours, we just couldn't sit around the hotel.
We hopped on the shuttle bus to the subway and then into
Washington, D.C.



Olivia loooooved the subway.  She called it the "train-train". 



Washington Monument 


Capitol Bldg.



World War II Memorial 



Lincoln Memorial
This is the one thing I wanted most to see.
The walk to & from this from the subway stop was
TWO MILES!!!!
I walked 3 miles in the two days in D.C.
I think that's the most I've walked in two days since the accident.


Luke liked seeing the policeman on horseback.


Here it is, folks!



The kids with the reflecting pond and the Washington Memorial in the background.


The White House waaaay in the distance.
