Jared left today to go back to school. He took the shuttle out of Burlington to Sea-Tac Airport. He's headed back to Henderson, Tennessee. We had a little bit of snow today in the Seattle area, but they kept the main roads clear so it wasn't any problem.

We had a sort of open-house at the end of the year. Invited all the church members to come and visit...sort of a come-and-go type thing. Had some snacks, and John made his own hot chocolate mix and his own spiced tea mix. We try to do this every year. We had a house full of people. A lot of them really enjoyed playing the Wii...not just the young folks either!

This is Jared with his friend Andrew...hmmm...not quite sure what he's doing....anyway....I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and now it's a whole new year! May you all have a blessed one!
