The end of October we were able to make our trip North to Round Lake. We had a really good time and were able to meet a lot of our friends. I had the experience of making "spaghetti" last minute for the family that was grieving death of a loved one. I also made lunch in someone else's home for them and for us with their food. We LOVED catching up with our friends, making new friends and being a support to the grieving family. We were there for a little over 24 hours and then flew back to Dryden. It was a trip worthwhile! The end of October also brought a visit from Matt's parents and brother. That's when the snow started and hasn't stopped since then. We enjoyed a lot of fires in the fire place, hot tea and hot chocolate and lots of other good memories.

January was an Intake, Youth Retreat and Couples Retreat for the Staff Couples. We enjoyed 3 days away in MN!! It was good to come back to our children again, but it sure was refreshing to be away for a couple of days!

February brings Little Bands Hockey Week, Intake and whatever comes our way. Our family has been dealing with some sickness. We had really been blessed with health for a LONG time this winter!!! I was quite certain we couldn't escape all the sickness all winter!!!! We will really be thankful for health again! God has been good in the midst of sickness too!!!
May God continue to bless you in this New Year!
Happy New Year!
