The Siberian Cold

We woke up this morning to another fresh layer of snow.  Winter here tends to be quite mild, hovering around the 0°C, but dipping down lower at least once in the winter.  Snow is not uncommon but is doesn't usually last long.
This winter began unusually mild, but now for the past two weeks the temperatures have stayed consistently below 0°.  We have even had -17°C one night. We are fortunate as many other parts of Europe have had much colder temps.  The weather man called it "The Siberian Cold". So glad for a house with good heating!

20 Years!

Twenty years ago today, we boarded a plane and flew to Germany to begin a new adventure.  We were young and Lindsey was not even a year old.  We had no idea how long the adventure would last, and today we look back with grateful hearts for all of these wonderful years and for God's great faithfulness.


A Great Day for A Carriage Ride

 On Sunday, although the weather was quite cold, we were taken on a carriage ride.  The day was clear and crisp.  The snow was crunchy and the views were wonderful.
