NEW LIFE

CHRISTA AND DREW BEFORE FINDING OUT! This is the profile of a 20-week fetus - a little girl - her nose is an exact copy of her mommy's! Her little head and nose are facing UP. This sonogram photo was taken just yesterday. I could show you one of a same-age little boy, too; but I don't have access to it right now. These tiny, tiny precious creations are our next great-grandchildren, expected in August. We had a big family get-together yesterday to celebrate these new babies-to-be, and you may see the horde of photos I took by clicking on fetal fotos. We were not a complete family yesterday, but 12 of us were privileged to be together. Son-in-law Greg is very sick with flu, mommy-to-be Paige had to work, Justin's girlfriend Dallas had to work, and others who were missing live out of town. It would have been almost miraculous to get everybody here at the same time, but I took all these photos for them. They were taken at Fetal Fotos, where Christa and Drew learned they're having girl, and at our house. JUST CLICK ON fetal fotos at right. The two lines above it are useless.

BARE TREES

Our dear friend, Don Watson, up in Cambridge, Idaho, commented on our Oregon photos, and I just had to share this portion of his comments: "...all of the bare trees. They too have enticed me. The lesson I learn from them is that when the tree is bare and devoid of leaves that is a picture of my life with out Christ. Bare of any covering and naked with out Christ and as the leaves cover many faults in the tree so does Christ's blood cover my sins and makes me acceptable." Thanks VERY much, Don!

Happy Birthday, Diana

March 5-14 Oregon delights

Gorgeous trip and beautiful visits. Should have taken more pix of people, but scenery is always overwhelming me, and so here it is. If you don't like scenery much, just don't bother with this one. But you CAN see Denise, Thom, Christa, Drew, LeRoi, CocoaBear and me! Click on photo site to the right
