Kay has had this really wiggly tooth in front…for the longest time.  It just flapped around.  It would bleed everywhere when we brushed it, but it just wouldn’t come out!  Finally, this last week, over a meal of California Rolls…it finally popped out!

Noah and Sarah playing together!

I’m not sure how this guy sees depth perception, volume, or spatial awareness…but here he is trying to get into his toy Ark.  Sorry Noah…you have to find a bigger Ark!

Bekah, for some reason, likes to nap in all of her normal clothes.  All the rest of us love to change into our more comfortable sleep clothes…but Bekah always insists on sleeping in her day clothes.  Including her socks!

It was cold today…and on the way out of our mud room, Kay and Bekah each grabbed a scarf, gloves, and other warm clothes.  On the way to Super Target, Bekah yells from the back, “Can you turn the music higher!?”  Look at this!  No wonder she couldn’t hear the music, she’s got her ear muffs on!

It rained ICE last night.  Really, no better way to explain it.  It was not cold enough for it to snow the whole time…so it rained.  But it was cold enough for the rain to become ice.  And wow…by the morning, there was a layer of ICE over everything!  Here is my lawn, a layer of ice, cruchy, crunchy ice.

I left my car out so that I could get a free car wash in the rain.  Probably a lame idea.  This is not snow on the car…its a layer of ice.  Almost the entire car had a shell of really thick ice!

I cracked through a little, so that I could see how thick the ice was.

I spent all this time looking at the ice shell on my car…but when we started driving around…wow!  Everything was so beautiful.  Really scary and dangerous to drive…but really amazing to look at.  All the bushes and trees were covered in ice.  Everything was sparkly and silvery.

This past week the EFC-LA Pastoral and Admin Staff came out for their annual staff retreat.  They had lots of time in the prayer room and the awakening services.  We also had them over for dinner one of the evenings.
