Well, yesterday we did laundry and took baths, BUT life would not be an adventure if everything went smoothly!  Travis threw up last night all over himself, his bed and his brother’s bed! YUCKY! Since our blanket supply is a little limited, I guess we will be spending more money doing laundry later today.

Today is Wednesday, the weather is about -21 degrees and the skies are fairly clear. All that to say…there is a good possibility that the mail plane will make it into Manley today! YAY! I’m hoping for mail.  The lady that is the post master here is very nice, and I’ve enjoyed getting to know her. I’m praying for our friendship to grow, and I’ll get to know her better.

Roger is busy scrounging around the house, shoveling out the piles of snow surrounding a trailer. We’d like to get it out, so that we can use it to haul wood. We are hoping to go out tomorrow to get wood. The interesting part will be getting the trailer back into the yard. Our home is up on a hill and the road to our home is on a hill, so we will need to back up the road hill and then pull forward into our driveway. (I think that sounds easier written on paper then it’s actually going to be!)

Tomorrow is also the community Christmas program, so we are looking forward to that too. Please pray that we will be able to meet a few more people as well.

Well, as I sit here finishing this post for the day…I’ll need to make an addendum.  We did get the trailer shoveled out; we did not get to the washateria; we did take a walk as a family, and we did get mail today! YAY! Since the mail plane was late…as in very late…we picked up our letters. We’ll go back tomorrow to pick up the packages as Dana said we had some waiting there, but she needed to process them first. Woo Hoo! 
