Special weekend…

It’s that time of the year when we are thinking of Jesus and the Memorial.  We have been busy in the ministry getting the invitations out. We have a brother and his wife coming from California to give the Memorial talk and the one on Sunday. They were long time Bethelites that know our Cordinator. Looking forward to meeting them tomorrow.

…meantime here are some springtime pictures from Prosser area…

Baby lambs everywhere!
Cute donkeys
Here is out our door. These trees are everywhere ! Some say they are flowering Cherry trees others say plum trees.
Here is in front of the Kingdom Hall

And last of all this is a painting a young sister painted for us. She said it’s paradise with a Kingdom Hall on the hillside.

I love it! So happy like the young lady who painted it for us!🦋

Just for fun….

Hi again! I wanted to post some fun pictures that I thought the cousins would like to see…. Auntie Susie getting her hugs from Kyle🤗

Oh and I forgot to post this picture from our trip to Maui. We stayed with our dear sweet friend Savannah who we also went through SKE with. She is such a water baby!

Love you all!🦋

Day trip…

Hi! Spring is coming to the Yakima valley. So many baby animals around here! Down the road there are chunky brown and white baby goats jumping around and on top of their mother. Then we have a lot of sheep around here with their adorable fluffy babies running together like they were in a race. We have seen some fresh born wobbly calves in the fields around Prosser too.

Today we went on a day trip up to the elk camp (where they feed the elk hay, when they come down out of the high ground in search of food in the winter) but since it’s been a farely mild winter here they were not there, but Bryan brought his bonockulars and sure enough up the mountain before the snow we spotted a huge heard of those giant creatures all lounging on the grass. Must of been 30 of them.

Then we drove up toward Chinook pass to a high mountain lake. It was snowing and cold. No spring there! Several feet of snow. Ate lunch at whistling Jacks resort. So cool.

    Up by Bumping lake. So cold!

but here is spring back in Charleston at Dad’s place. Beautiful azalea bush.

Beautiful day…

We went for a walk after the meeting today. Across the Prosser bridge and through the old downtown area. It was a beautiful day! Just thought I would share some awesome pictures Bryan took.

Last night driving into Prosser to the west was an amazing sunset that looked like a bomb exploded on Mt. Adams!

Jehovah’s creation never disappoints.

love from Bryan and I.🦋

I’m back…

Hi everyone! Sorry I have not been writing.  Some of you have asked me to keep the updates coming…

So here we are in the middle of March! We had a lovely trip to Maui! Hope to go back there some day!

We have been busy in field service. And have been working on getting a job, which has tested our faith but at the same time allowed us to see how Jehovah takes care of us…and that has built our faith!

Beautiful sunset on the river!
Saw this while driving in service. Prosser was just ahead.

Then the beginning of March we flew back to South Carolina and visited family. It was so good to see them! Kyle flew back for a week when we were there and it was amazing to hug on him and hear his adventures!

Our first night seeing him! The cat had to get involved!
Yes he has grown a mustache. Some kind of male bonding with the guys on his crew
So good to see everyone!

Then we had to pack up and leave😞…that is when the cat got out of our luggage!😿

On the flight home we sat next to a young man from India who worked for Amazon out of Seattle. He was very nice even though there was a little bit of a language barrier, mostly us not understanding his strong accent😜. Anyway Bryan asked him how many languages Amazon.com was in now and he proudly replied 27! Then Bryan said our web site is in over 900 languages! He was shocked and said “Who are you?” We told him Jehovah’s Witnesses and he had no idea who or what that was. So we pulled up the web site (by this time we had landed and could use the internet) and showed him how to change it to his language Gujarati. His eyes were big😳. He asked if we had any Arabic because they are reversed reading right to left and is very difficult to translate….oh yes we did…we changed it to Arabic. He was very impressed. I gave him our JW business card. He was really checking it out and carefully put it in his wallet. Something the angels can work with.🦋

love you all😘
