More Pics!


It was so cold!


We had a lot of fun with the frisbee
We went to Custer's Battlefield. It was so interesting! It is amazing to know that an actual battle took place on the very land where you stand.



Stopping off the road to enjoy the scenery.


We were able to go to the Buffalo Bill Museum in Cody, Wyoming. Seth and I really enjoyed it!

*sigh* Buffalo Bill himself.
They had a taxidermist doing a sort of exhibition. His work was absolutely amazing!

Independence Day Weekend

For the last two years we have gone to Goldendale for Independence Day when they have their annual Demolition Derby.
It is so much fun, in a destructive sort of way I suppose : )



I love it!


This is the only way that Jesh can stand the noise. . . Gun muffs: they solve everything.

This man, James Smith, is a professional stunt driver who did a little exhibition for us all. It was perty cool! He has worked on the sets of the Dukes of Hazard, Knight Rider, Transformers, and more. In Transformers, he does the trick where Bumblebee is driving through the tunnel on two wheels. Seth was very excited to be able to get a picture and autograph.

Gun muffs again!

Fun at the Aquarium


We were able to watch a shark dissection. . . cool stuff!
Seth's way of touching a shark : )

Mom and I scared of the sharks behind us

Mom found a friend!
Seth is in the sea!
Seth and I. . . trying to act like Puffin birds, which are by the way behind us; you just can't see them.

Us touching "mini" sharks and rays

A Humbling Reminder

"But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
And base things of the world, and things which are despised has God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to naught things that are:
That no flesh should glory in His presence."
I Corinthians 1:27-29

How humbling these verses are to me! They certainly keep my humanly sinful pride in check. It's amazing how people automatically think that because I am finishing Hygiene School at 19 years of age I am somehow exceptionally smart or talented. . . But in fact it is quite the opposite! God has chosen me and put me in this place because I am so weak that He can bring Himself glory through my "foolishness" and "baseness."
To God be the glory great things He has done.
