i'm back

well. sort of. it's been quite a crazy past few weeks. I visited some friends, went to a wedding in Iowa, had in laws come and stay with us, and went to MD for the WorshipGod conference...and a lot of little things in-between. Anyway, I have some pictures to share. We'll start with the WG Conference, in Maryland.

I was so glad that I was able to go with Tim this year! It was fun and tiring, and amazing to see God work, and learn so much about Him and His Word!! Thanks you God for meeting us in such incredible ways...we don't deserve your grace!

I was attempting to take a self photo...my arms are too short. :-)
Tim is much better at it!

We were happy to be there with the Cottrells...this is Jen and me!

The rest of the gang plus 3...in order on the left front to back: Hellen, Jen, Aaron, Jon, and Jeff (from Nebraska) right side from front to back: Tracie(from Stillwater), Jess, Tim, Tom, and Dave (from Nebraska)
Tim and I were bummed that we were so close to DC but didn't have time to sight-see. But God was kind to us and and on the way to the airport we took the wrong exit and ended up downtown DC!! We were excited! I took some pictures, but they were from a moving car, so forgive the blurry crookedness. Also, I'm not sure what most of these pictures are...Tim warned me that I would forget, and I did. Sorry.

I think this is the Pentagon.


Not sure


Some big building with a big green truck in front of it, and part of the car roof. oops.
some famous bridge?


US Dept. of Commerce. I think.
I do know this one...Washington Memorial. At least part of it.

oh ya, and this was the gas price in DC! yikes! Here in MN, it was $3.55 when we left.


This past weekend was amazing and I hope to go in 2010!!

Glad you had a good time. Avoid LA if you do not like gas prices. We were up to 4.55 gal and that was at COSTCO. now it is 4.09.

I agree about WG! God was very obviously at work there! Thanks, Jess, for all the encouragement and prayer on my behalf! I love you and am so thankful to God for you in my life!
