For our family vacation we went up to Canada and saw some gorgeous country.We went to five national parks. The above photo was taken in Banff after a fresh snow.
(yes snow in August :-) it was so fun!
A lot of the water was a milky color because it was fed from the glacier meltand had rock flour in it. The above picture is of Mom and Dad in front of Lake Louise.
Crossing the border just above Eureka, Tara is a Canada fan so we had to get
a picture of her there :D
We're true Montanans what can I say? The above picture is Me with Belle,

Belle, Amy and I enjoying a day on the trail.
So here I am getting ready to go off to Europe and can still hardly believe it’s actually going to happen. It’s already been an amazing journey and I haven’t even left home yet. God has shown me again and again that this is where He wants me and I am very excited to see what He will do in and through me. I fly out of Spokane Wednesday morning, go on to Denver, and then to Philadelphia before crossing the sea to Amsterdam ( I will arrive Thursday morning there) where I will meet the OM staff. Please pray for safe travels and that I will be able to get some sleep on the flights so I don’t arrive completely exhausted. J From there we will go to De Kroeze Danne (you can see pictures of it at the link http://picasaweb.google.com/OMBelgium/DeKroezeDanne) where the GO conference will be held. At the conference I will meet my team and be introduced to my ministry. The purpose of the conference is to orientate each new worker practically and spiritually into embracing OM by giving a panoramic view showing the wealth and diversity through the introduction to its people, values, and ministry around the world. It will open my eyes to the needs and opportunities in the world as well as improve my cross-cultural awareness. I would ask that you would pray that my heart and eyes will be opened to God in a way they never have been before and that I would learn and grow in Him so that I may reach out and touch others for Him to the utmost. Thank you all for your continued love, support, and prayer. This would never have been possible without you. God is at work both here at home and abroad and I am excited to be a part of it.
The Lord bless you and keep you!
