We Needed a Bench!

So we were out at White Sands Beach tonight and the guys decided they needed a bench to sit on. So they got a very heavy bench to sit on. It was quite an amazing sight.

Post Prom

Some say that Stephen and I are gluttons for punishment, especially after this weekend. The Lord put it in Stephen and my minds that we shoud put on an after prom for some of the youth in our youth group and the community. So we spent Saturday setting up what turned out to be a great night and morning of fun. We had everything from movies, video games, pin pon, foos ball, basketball, climbing wall and a rip cord, food and just great fellowship. We opened our doors from 10PM to 3AM and Stephen and I climbed in bed around 4AM. We were both pretty tired today, but it was truly worth it and we look forward to next year.

25 Days of School Left!

Mr. Foreman showed off his talented class yesterday at their weekly chapel time. He was able to get all those kids to perform a memorized play for the rest of the school and they all did great! The play was about a rich king. There was a prophecy that the richest person in the kingdom would die at midnight. The king of course was upset and so was his wife who kept fainting througout the entire play. Anyway the king ended up giving all of his money away to a poor man in hopes get get it all back the next day when the man died.

Well when the next day came the entire royal kingdom went to this man's house. He was dead, but all the money was gone. At that time a few southern backward boys showed up, heavey accent and all. They explained that the man had given a little bit of money to everyone because he said he was already rich with the great life he had with his friends, family and all the Lord had given him. Of course we all know the end. Treasures of earthly wealth are nothing compared to the wonderful treasure of know Jesus and being blessed by all he daily gives to us.

I think Mr. Foreman has become quite the teacher!

Another Week Closer to Spring!

Well, I'm not sure if you can tell by the pictures but it's still rainy and windy, but that doesn't dampin the spirits of the Foremans we still got out to enjoy a Sunday afternoon walk with our faithful dog Roscoe. This was a nice cool down for Stephen after he benched a new Foreman record of 255lbs!!!! He really is the strongest man I know! :)

We are trying to find green where ever we go, and we're finding little shoots of grass blades. So hopefully in the next two weeks we'll see more signs of spring.

Interview Time!!!!

Well today was another exciting day for the Foremans! Stephen interviewed with all of the elementary school principles in the school district. Of course we were both pretty nervous and the night before stayed up late working on questions.

I am extremely happy to say the entire evening went GREAT!!! I have the most talented husband in the WORLD (I'm not bias or anything). Anyway he had the enter group laughing and having a great time during the interview. Of course they posed some tough questions, but from what I've heard he had some great answers.

We are so thankful to our wonderful Lord that has blessed us beyond measure. He gives us everything we need right when we need it and countinues to strengthen us for each new adventure he puts us on!

Playing Our Role

Well it was quite the Sunday at the Foreman household. Our pastor had to make an unexpected trip out of town and so they asked Stephen and me to fill in. So instead of keeping everything the same, we decided to get our youth kids involved and make it a youth Sunday. As you can see Stephen took care of the children's time. He truly is amazing at working with kids. The Lord really did lead him into the right career as a teacher.

We did a few human videos with the kids and a skit. Stephen played Jesus throughout the entire service. In the picture you can see a few of our youth that helped out with "The Champion" In the picture, "Satan" the kid in the glasses had just beat Jesus. Of course the angels were very sad and the ref (God) was overwhelmed with grief. Overall it was a GREAT morning and I'm so thankful we serve a living God that is actively working in our lives, giving us all the strength we need each day!

Not a Happy Hike!

Stephen and I decided to go for a nice walk today. We thought for sure enough snow had melted off one of the mountains that we could walk the road to the top. We were very wrong! It was a hard spring hike. As you can tell Stephen had a great time (ha ha ha)

Xtra Tuffs for Easter!

Happy Easter to all of our friends and family! We love and miss you all so much. Jill (my wonderful sister) this morning I turned on Sandi Patty and sang our song. It didn't sound quite as good with out you there to sing with me.

We are still in a very bad Easter, Kodiak storm. You can't really see it in the picture but it is raining very hard. Stephen and I both decided to sport our Xtra Tuff boots. We actually really would have fit in if we'd left them on for church. Stephen wears his almost every day for school, and fits in just fine. Xtra Tuffs are the shoe to have in Kodiak, everyone that's anyone has a pair.

Again, have a wonderful Easter! HE HAS RISEN!!!!!

Do You See What I See?

So our Easter weekend was suppose to be spent in Ouzinkie, however a great big storm decided to strike. It's interesting how the Lord speaks, sometimes quietly and sometimes very loudly! Anyway so today after catching a little bit of a Kodiak track meet Stephen and I went out to the docks to see what we could see.

Stephen spotted a boat with something strange hanging from it. When we got closer we could tell it was a great big octupus, or at least the remains of one. Anyway, it was cold and we were happy to have such a nice little cozy home to come home too.

A Warm Spring Walk!

So Stephen and I discovered that we have a very photogenic dog! He loves our Alaskan Adventures!

Stephen and I and a friend of ours were finally able to get out and enjoy spring time in Kodiak. Even thought it looks a bit cold it was actually very, very warm to us. We were out alittle over three hours and Stephen managed to get burnt. We had a great time having Roscoe run back and forth between us. Anyway, it was great to get out and enjoy life in Kodiak.
