I just ran out to do some errands and encountered a wild flurry of small snow flakes swirling wildly down from the sky. So far, it isn’t too much snow, but who knows what could happen during the night. Last week, we did have a couple of days of -25° weather.
Bro Bill Grier came out to preach yesterday. He was ministered on many things, but I think his point was that we need each and the Lord to be a “whole” person.
Miss JoAn flies out tomorrow for Anchorage to visit some of her children in that area. Bethany leaves Wednesday morning to visit her mom and brothers in Kansas.
Monday night has become basket ball night. Tommy or Jarred take as many kids as they can to Dot Lake to play basket ball in their gym. My kids really enjoy that. They have just come home and are pretty wild from having had a couple of good games.
Paul and Jenee Basalyga with their children have moved to Whitestone sometime recently. Since being over there, we don’t see them as often as we did when they lived in Delta. They came out yesterday for the afternoon and supper.
Bonnie left today to fly home. They are confirmed to move here, Jim will stay and keep working with the guys. Bonnie has to tie up ends and get her aged relative sorted out as far as getting a place for her over here. They plan to move into the old Milliron cabin, which has a set up for an older person downstairs since M had their aged father with them for a while....
I saw on the facebook posts that Stephen proposed to his girlfriend, Melissa, and she accepted! So, Stephen is engaged. They will be coming to visit us later this month.
Oh yeah, this reminds me, Ben Persinger pulled a fast one and married a nice girl over Thanksgiving weekend.
The last couple of Friday nights, we’ve cut up our butchered beef cows. I’m not complaining about the beef, I just hate cutting meat alllll the time (meat is not my thing, as most of you know).
Thursday night, Jepsens took some kids along with Aunt Jeni and Miss Jannis to see the Delta Community Choir sing on the Ft Greely base. Becky Riche is the pianist and at the last minute had to be the director too. Jepsens oldest Chris, his girlfriend, her sister, and her mom were also in the choir. Rachel Lupo (the girlfriend’s sister) sang a really nice solo. A picture can be seen here: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=3094673&l=3ccb0c03e2&id=674561568
On Saturday night, Jepsen kids went to Fbks to spend the day with the Lupos. Sat. we had dinner with Jeps and the Trotskeys. Great meal made by Sarah....made an increadible salsa with mangoes and roasted caribou...which tasted amazingly good (for caribou! haha).
I better save some chattering for another day. It is presently -5° and snowing. Have a nice week. gri b
