For the first time in several years, a good snow fell and stuck. We had about 4-6 inches and all of the neighborhood kids loved it. They played outside for hours. We also did some indoor crafts. Asher and Josiah made robots and Isabel designed a Shrinky Dink bracelet. Later, because I have not been feeling well, Isabel made me a homemade carrot soup. It was delicious. I love our kids, they are such a blessing. </div>

For 7 years I have been waiting for the day that Isabel could attend the Protocol event at our co-op. Unlike traditional school dances, Protocol is a chance for the kids to learn how to act appropriately at events. They girls are paired with a boy and the boy is supposed to take care of the lady, hold doors open, fill drinks, pull chairs out, etc. The theme this year was a country hoe-down. The kids had a blast!</div>

We have been learning about World War I during our history studies both at school and at co-op. The Museum of Flight in Seattle has an amazing exhibit of the World War I and World War II planes. And thankfully all of the museums in Seattle are free on the first Thursday of the month! The kids loved seeing the planes and the interactive exhibits. They could "fly" a plane and they got to experience a life sized trench. By far their favorite part was something completely unrelated to history and totally related to fun. Isabel and Josiah used their money to go on a flight simulator. They talked about it for days afterwards and are looking forward to going back again next month. </div>

After 5 days of long hours of driving, we needed a rest. And once we got into Flagstaff, we knew we had arrived at just the place. It is a beautiful oasis of beauty nestled between miles of dry flatlands and the Grand Canyon. Our hotel had a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains.<br />

We decided to hit up some parks and local hiking trails. We found a beautiful park under the mountains, and played in the woods and climbed rocks for a good long while. It felt great to get fresh air.<br />

<br />
Later we rested at our hotel, and then headed out to the Flagstaff Aquaplex where the kids did some rock climbing and swam in their beautiful pool with amazing waterslides.<br />
<br />
It was a wonderful day and I am thankful to God for putting it on my heart to take a day off, even if it meant only having one day at the actual canyon.<br />
<br />
Honestly, one of the reasons we had to rest is because my health is not very predictable. The driving left me exhausted, dizzy, and nauseous. I used to get very down on myself on my ability to not push harder, but I started reading this blog http://aiplifestyle.com/ about my autoimmune disorder and it completely changed my perspective and has help me immensely. She teaches a lot about loving the illness and learning to see what the illness is trying to teach you. I have learned to really listen to God and my body this way. I know that God has place my autoimmune disorder upon me and has much to teach me through it if only I will let Him. So when I learn to listen, pray, embrace, love and live with thankfulness, I do so much better than when I fear, run away, hide, and live with anger.<br />
<br />
So with that, we had our day of rest. Off to the Grand Canyon today!

We arrived in Texas on Saturday, though it seems like a month ago now! We headed right towards San Antonio, worried about upcoming weather. It's a good thing we did because right outside the city it started pouring. I pulled over into a gas station because I couldn't see. It rained maybe 5 minutes and then there was a break so I wanted to get to our hotel before we started pouring again. But on the way to the interstate, water started literally coming out from the ground, not from pipes or other drainage or water sources, but out of the ground and filling the streets. I have never seen anything like it. Thankfully, we got on the interstate and got through the water, but it was terrifying. I am praying for all the families that were caught in flash floods this weekend. It really just comes out of nowhere. </div>

Our friends Pete and Nancy recommended it. It was absolutely beautiful and the kids were in awe! It is an old bank building from the 1800's converted recently into a breathtaking hotel. After "social hour", a time when you can have a delicious free dinner in the grand lobby, we headed down to the Riverwalk. </div>

It was quite crowded because of the holiday weekend, but it was really unique. We walked along the many underground streets along the river for about an hour and then headed back to the hotel to swim. The pool was a in a beautiful glass walled room, which was beautiful, even with the lightning, until I saw that we were issued a tornado warning and rotation had been detected in the area. We went back to our room and then spent about 30 minutes in the snack room in the middle of the hotel. It stormed all night like I have never seen (except maybe in a hurricane), but we were safe. Unfortunately, the storm has continued to cause devastation and many others can not say the same. We are praying for those families.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The next morning we headed to the Alamo. It is right in the middle of the city. I learned so much about the importance of the Alamo and why it has stood as a symbol of freedom and liberty. </div>

After the Alamo, we headed to El Paso. Thankfully, we were west of the weather now and that was an easy drive. Nothing much to report there except it was a lot more like Texas there than in San Antonio. If you do go to San Antonio, just know it is much more like New York City. If you want a real Texas experience,go to El Paso. We could see the border. It was interesting to see the difference from one side of the interstate compared to the other. </div>

We went from desert like conditions, to red rock, to flatlands, to lush forests, to more flatlands, to huge mountains, to more flatlands to more red rock and then to Flagstaff which is this beautiful lush city in the mountains. I could easily live here. Our hotel is overlooking a beautiful snow covered mountain. There is cute historic downtown on Route 66. </div>

<br />
Have you ever been in a situation in your life where you had been planning do to one thing, or you envisioned your life going in a certain direction, and then at the last minute you decide to do something completely different? Have you ever agonized over this decision, wondering if you made the right choice? Have you ever been frustrated or even angry about the outcome?<br />
<br />
But have you ever gotten to the end of that decision and seen that through it all, it turned out for the best?<br />
<br />
That is what happened to us today, but it pretty much sums up all of the events of the last year as well.<br />
<br />
Tonight we arrived in Lafayette, Louisiana. Originally, our plan had been to swing up to north Louisiana and see my grandmother who has Alzheimer's Disease. But after yesterday, we realized that a 5 hour detour probably wasn't feasible, and then when we saw bad storms coming that might slow us down, we decided just to stay south on the more direct route.<br />
<br />
Before we came to this decision, I mulled over it for hours, and I had trouble sleeping. I kept myself up wondering if this was the right thing to do. I did the same thing when we made the decision to move to Florida, only on a much grander and slightly more dramatic (think day long crying spells) scale.<br />
<br />
We finally made the decision and went for it, but things were not exactly smooth sailing. First of all, there were the bridges. There are so many bridges in the south! And they go on...forever! You can't even see land on the other side. And of all the things to be afraid of, this is number one for me.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhItuIp7YKPoHxzkvBW2tPsXq2Jea54TGMfX3tKVBsUfWUJBoz8_gsxoTqAxJXvFcwAleMPMjauULfxJqMM3Zfcabj1o2skVU7Depv-MzEAixAOrU8bSTVF0lwGtQoNhpx5nSilNabe2AHF/s1600/IMG_3661.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhItuIp7YKPoHxzkvBW2tPsXq2Jea54TGMfX3tKVBsUfWUJBoz8_gsxoTqAxJXvFcwAleMPMjauULfxJqMM3Zfcabj1o2skVU7Depv-MzEAixAOrU8bSTVF0lwGtQoNhpx5nSilNabe2AHF/s320/IMG_3661.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
I literally grit my teeth, tighten my grip around the steering wheel, and I can't talk with anyone around me as I go across. Can you imagine doing this for nearly 10 minutes at time? As if holding the wheel tighter would somehow protect me from falling off the bridge!<br />
<br />
Then there was the tunnel through Mobile!<br />

I have never been through a tunnel that went deeper and deeper into the ground as you went into it. The whole time I was just begging to get out and was so excited when we finally saw the light of day. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My response to fear on this trip is no different to how I responded to the fear of moving to Florida. I try to control every situation and I am begging and can't wait to get out of it. My mom and I were talking on the trip and (because fear is a serious generational sin in our family) were trying to imagine what life would be like if fear wasn't a part of our lives. And I think one of the most interesting parts of our conversation is that there is part of us that likes to hold onto fear, as if being afraid protects us from making bad decisions, as if it keeps us in control, as if....what else can you say to that except...AS IF! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I hope to come to a place where I can truly trust God and loosen my grip and enjoy the ride of new situations instead of begging to get out. </div>

The other major detour we hit was traffic! Earlier in the trip we had to decide if we would drive through New Orleans or go up and around it. We saw a traffic sign describing an accident on the upper route and decided to go through New Orleans...at Rush Hour! This was a big mistake and overall probably cost us about two hours. And the whole time I am whining over why I took this route instead of the other. It's like I somehow get mad enough at myself over the decision I made, it atones for not making the "right" decision. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This was daily life for me during the first (well most) of my time in Florida. Why oh why can I not just trust God and that He really is guiding my steps and He has purpose in it, no matter how badly I mess up!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Because when I finally do trust God I can see that He is bringing me to places far more amazing that I can possibly imagine. </div>

Driving through New Orleans we saw a cemetery from 1840. It went on for miles and miles and was full of the most elaborate and beautiful above ground graves. It was one of the most hauntingly beautiful things I have ever seen. I love history and stories and I wish I could know the story of each person there. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I imagine that they have a story much like yours and mine. One that is full of adventure, decisions, fear, pain, hope, joy, and love. I imagine that at some point to get where they are, they had to make a decision and face much unknown. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I just hope that as I face those things in the future, God is teaching me to that with much more trust and hope in Him and His plan. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Because as my children put it when we got to our beautiful hotel, "This is the best hotel we have even been to! Thank you Mommy!" </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I know I will be saying that to God when I finally lay down to rest and see Him, "This is the best place I have ever been to! Thank you Daddy!" </div>

<br />
We arrived in Tallahassee tonight. When you leave for a road trip sometimes it's hard to know just how long hours in the car will feel on your body. That is what happened to us. A few hours felt like days, and not to the kids but to the adults!<br />
<br />
As we drove to through the dark, I kept telling myself, I can do this, I have the strength, God will help me. Then "you" almost run into a curb (true story) and realize that it's probably time to stop. Sometimes God is saying it takes strength to say I need to rest. I actually can not go on any farther. And I don't know about you, but for me it sometimes takes more strength to stop than keep going. And that strength can only come from Christ.<br />

We came here to preach the gospel and God preached the gospel to us. He healed us (especially me) in almost every facet of my being; spiritually, emotionally, and physically. We were never quite as rest with what we thought we were supposed to be doing here. (I missed my sisters) And now it's time to go home. </div>

But we are leaving so different than when we came. God used so many amazing people to love and heal us, to show us His love and the beauty of His church in action. He caused me to lean in to Him in a way I had never done before. He healed so much pain that I left with and brings me back as a person who deeply understands His grace, love, provision, and purpose. </div>

We gave the grandparents a break today and took a 30 minute drive south to The Busch Wildlife Sanctuary and DuBois Park/Lagoon. We hit the sanctuary first and since we have a resident animal lover in our family, it was a hit. We saw turtles, foxes, alligators, birds, owls, panthers, bears, skunks, and more. Only animals that call Florida home were there. After that we headed to the Lagoon to try and catch some creatures of our own. We were able to catch many different types of crabs, fish, and jellyfish. We also got to enjoy some sun and the water too. One of my favorite things was the recovered cannon that came from a sunken Spanish ship that sailed in the 1600. I can't remember the Spanish name, but it was something like the Archangel Michael. I just love history. (I can thank homeschooling for that!)<br />

We have been visiting Grandma Kathi and Grandpa Tom for 3 weeks. We have had so much fun and I could not think of a better way to spend the first day of the new year than fishing with them! We braved the pouring rain to head out and see what we could catch under the Jensen Beach causeway bridge. Even Uncle Ryan showed up. It really was unbelievable, as we must have caught 10+ fish. Josiah snagged a red snapper, and Isabel and Asher each caught a puffer fish. What's more, we even saw dolphins! They hung around and made an appearance for most of our time fishing. The sunset was beautiful and it was the perfect start to what I expect will be an amazing year. </div>

It has been well over a year since I have posted by this blog. I have spent time overwhelmed by homeschooling, grieving over another miscarriage, grieving losing the ability to have kids, recovering from surgery, celebrating birthdays, moving cities, working at our co-op, and much more. Mostly, I have just wanted to spend time being present with my family. I feel so blessed, just to be alive and to know that God loves me and has chosen me. I would say that Psalm 42 has kept me going many times this year. Especially this verse,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: inherit;">And I have come to praise Him again. I am </span>trusting<span style="font-family: inherit;"> in His plan and it is so exciting as He allows me to see little things fall into place. I am so ready to see what He has planned for our family this year. </span></div>

After 3 weeks in Florida, we started to get a little crazy. I guess Florida put the party in us. After an hour of Runkin Ryan and his cousins doing flips in the pool, the kids decided to try some of their own. He is a video of them in action. </div>

The coolest thing we did in Florida was a pirate birthday boat ride. Grandma and Granspa treated Asher and Josiah (and the rest of us) to a trip on a Pirate Ship to celebrate their birthdays. It was amazing. We sailed the seas, sang songs, read a map, hunted a sea monster, fought the bad guy, and found the treasure! </div>

We had a stretch of abnormally warm and beautiful weather in the spring, so we took advantage of it by going camping. We chose to go to Penrose Point State Park, a place I used to go when I was a nanny. I have lots of fun memories there, so it was great to make some with my kids. We played in the low tide, went hiking, and had a rousing game of hide and seek in the woods. But I think the most memorable time, was trying to pack up in the absolutely pouring rain! </div>

In May, our co-op took a wonderful field trip to Oregon City and Fort Vancouver. The kids saw cannons, a blacksmith shop, homes from the period, covered wagons, and so much more. But their favorite part, staying at the hotel and swimming in the pool. Of course. </div>

In 1962 the Space Needle was built for the World's Fair held in Seattle. We are so blessed to have a view of it right out our front door! So of course, when the big birthday party came, we had to go and celebrate. We took the fam and Sully over to go up to the top one of the $1 rides! The day was beautiful so the view was amazing. Isabel suffered a little bit of height fear, but for the most part, it was just a great time. Then we came down to play in the fountain and ride some rides. We try to enjoy living in the city as much as we can while the Lord has us here. </div>

Especially if you are actually at the zoo. We took Grandma and Grandpa Bone to the zoo for the egg hunt this year. We had no idea what to expect because we had not actually been there, but it was really wonderful. It was crowded, but they did a great job of spreading everyone out and it didn't feel overwhelming. Plus there were plenty of eggs and the kids loaded up as you can see below. There were plenty of fun games as well, Asher was very serious about the egg and spoon race. The best part of it was sharing it all with Grandma and Grandpa. </div>

I love holidays and making new traditions. This year, we added a few wonderful traditions to our Easter celebration. Here is one of those, the kids making resurrection gardens. With a little dirt for the hill, rocks for the tomb and surroundings, and twigs for the cross, the kids made a beautiful and simple reminder of our God with a beautiful and simple message. </div>
