Flying Fish

This past Monday Jeremy and I were able to spend some time together, which has been rare over the last week. Jeremy went on a business trip and then went on a backpacking trip. So as in celebration of finally having some time with one another we went for a drive to Mill City, Oregon where we ate lunch and went for a little walk to the river that runs through the town. We were reminded throughout our time apart how necessary it is to spend time together.
Here are some pictures of the day. The first picture is of the Mill City Bridge and the second is of a fish jumping from the water up in the air.

Middle Sister Ascent

In August my brother and I (Jeremy) went hiking with some friends from my Young Married's Interaction Group from church. It was part of their annual backpacking trip. It was a very difficult climb for me -- but I miraculously made it to the top. I had a good time and I hope my brother did too. (He got a bit sick on the trip... which is not fun on the side of a mountain.) The bottom photo is south sister from middle sister. The middle mountain is the view from our basecamp. It was a great experience.

Friends Come To Visit

Jeremy and I were blessed to meet up with our good friends from New Tribes while in Missouri. They were our first neighbors as a married couple and we have special first memories with them. They have completed the New Tribes training and are going out to the mission field prayerfully in December.They were blessed with a new addition to their family, baby Micheal. He is 10 months old and is full of life. Please pray with us as they prepare to go out.

Road Trip to Missouri

On our way to Missouri we were able to stop at a few national parks such as Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, the Redwoods and the Petrified Forest. My favorites were Yosemite and the Petrified Forest. I thought the geology and history of the Petrified Forest was the most interesting. We had a good trip and are having a good time in Missouri.
