The place was a building across the highway from our house that had been the library when Jeffrey was a little boy. Now it is a church office/youth building. We were happy to rent an affordable place that holds many memories for our children. We reused some of the decorations from their wedding in Iowa. Lesa's bouquet is in the middle in a vase.</div>

Jonathan Randall Albertson turns four tomorrow! This picture is from back in April when he and his family lived in Denver and we saw them once or twice a week. Now they live in Mitchell, SD and we will miss his birthday. Hopefully we will see him and give him our birthday hugs and kisses at Jeffrey's wedding this week!<br />

I was so blessed and affirmed as each of the ladies contributed to this bouquet of kind and loving words and flowers. As my last words of admonition I asked them to remember, "For this I have Jesus." We don't know what the "this" is going to be in our future, but Jesus will be enough!<br />

Three of our kids have had the privilege of working at Johnstown Ace Hardware. Jeffrey started in August 2009 until he went to college in 2011, and then worked the summer of 2013. Jason started in March 2011 and worked until he went to college in August 2013 and was back for summers of 2014 and 2016. Elizabeth started in December 2011 and has worked there continuously except for the two semesters of college in 2014. They each gained so many skills and much understanding of how things work, how to fix things, how to problem solve, how to get along with many personalities, etc. Jeffrey and Elizabeth were opening and closing managers, and they all three had departments to manage. Ace has been a wonderful place for them to work and learn and grow. We thank God for the opportunities and enrichment Ace has brought to all of us. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, another good-bye was the last day of Elizabeth and Jason's work at Ace on August 30, 2016. Most of the employees and their families had a meal together after 6 p.m. closing</div>

We have been friends with Eladio and Sherolyn Cruz and family for so many years, at least ever since 2000, though Janet knew Sherolyn from the late 70s also! Our families have grown up together, homeschooling, sharing meals and games and church. Mary Cruz has been working at Johnstown Ace since March 2016, and we've tried to have her over every week for a meal. Mike, Carmen's husband, was one of our "adopted" kids. These folks are dear to us. We began saying good-bye to them yesterday at a Sunday dinner and afternoon game time.</div>

Our June and July have been very busy. First, with getting our house on the market. We packed, painted, staged, did projects and got the For Sale sign up on June 13. Since then, we have had 20 showings. We receive a text asking for a particular date and time for the house to be shown. The least notice we have had before a showing was 45 minutes. One time, the time scheduled was not what the realtor had asked for, so they showed up an hour earlier than we had planned for. But we have worked together to have everything ready and be out of the house each time. We have had a lot more picnics because many of the showings are over a meal time. <br />

We had a 20 yd roll-off dumpster for the month of June that we filled level-full, as we cleaned out from under the deck, the garage, went through lots of drawers, files, trunks, and boxes throwing away what we no longer needed and could not sell, donate, or give away. We've made regular drop-offs to Goodwill and ReStore. We found out that we accumulated a lot of stuff in 27 years! </div>

One of the great blessings of this trip was getting to see Ron and Becky Profitt. Rowen and Emily had not seen Becky since 2008, and Ron since before then! For being some of our favorite people, that is just unacceptable! They live in Ohio now, rather than Grand Cayman, so maybe we can see them more often.<br />

We feel God is leading our family to move to GBS area in the near future. We put a contract on a house in northern Kentucky while we were there, contingent on our house in Johnstown selling. We appreciate prayers for God's will, timing, and purpose to be worked out in our future. Here is the link for our house for sale: <a href="https://www.coldwellbankerhomes.com/co/johnstown/906-w-south-1st-st/pid_12650646/"> Johnstown House for Sale</a></div>

On the 30th, Randy and Joy's family came up for supper and the evening. For dessert, those who like root-beer, enjoyed root-beer floats. The ones who don't prefer root-beer had coffee or chocolate milk on theirs.<br />

Any time there is a trip to or from Missouri area going to happen, I consider it time to make a quilt! (So I can get it to the quilter in Galena, Kansas without having to mail it!) I have a dear friend who is getting married August 20, and I had always told her if she would get married, I would make her a quilt. So when she was so sweet to come a couple hours' journey to see me when I was in Missouri in February, I asked her what colors she wanted in her quilt. She said blues and browns. She's marrying an Iowan farmer, so the fabrics I chose will go well in a farming life. This is a close up of the fabrics. </div>

The pattern is called Crosswalk, and is very similar to another quilt I did a few years ago. I'm calling it Hugs and Kisses because it is a wedding quilt, and because I see Os and Xs when I look at it. </div>

After a very wonderful Christmas with all of our kids, grandkids, and two girlfriends, we have been too busy to blog. If you want to know what happened, check out Emily's blog. She is faithful to give a monthly synopsis that has lots of beautiful pictures. I cannot begin to cover everything I have missed blogging about, but I am going to attempt to hit the highlights.</div>

On January 5, Jeffrey and Lesa got engaged. Their wedding is set for this summer. If you know us well, you will probably be invited. :) I was waiting for this news with fabrics purchased, calculations made, and the place marked in the book where Jeffrey picked out his requested quilt pattern several years ago. This first picture shows one block completed. Yes, it is all pieced. Even the tiny ones in the middle of the block. When Jeffrey picked this pattern, I told him it was too hard for his mommy to do. But he insisted that was what he wanted. So, Jesus helped me and I made the quilt. The blue is for Jeffrey. The purples are for Lesa.</div>

After the engagement and making the quilt, Rowen's 58th birthday is the next featured highlight. He prefers fruit pie instead of birthday cake. We are grateful that even though he has had two frightening health issues in recent months, he is doing well and is such a blessing to all of us!<br />

On February 11, Emily and Janet went to Joplin, Missouri to wait for and help at the arrival of Tim and Brenda's baby boy. Rowen had these roses and chocolates delivered to Janet for Valentine's Day. We couldn't remember being away from each other any other Valentine's Day for 32 years! They were very long lasting roses, keeping their beauty for two weeks!</div>

We enjoyed being in Missouri and helping out at this very special time in Tim and Brenda's lives, but we did eventually come home on February 27. After we got home, we decided to go through all of our homeschool supplies that have accumulated over 26 years. We sorted what to throw away, what to give away, what to sell, and what to keep. It was a huge job.</div>

Dear Family and Friends, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We hope that this letter finds each of you closer to God than you were a year ago! God has been faithful and good to us, far beyond what we deserve. We are so grateful for this season of the year which reminds us of the reason why Jesus came. It was a dark world when He came as the Light of the World. We pray each day that we will shine His light to others. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We have been privileged to have Elizabeth, 22, home this whole year. She has been working at Ace Hardware and saving her money for when she goes back to God’s Bible School in August 2016, Lord willing. She has gotten much experience playing piano for congregational singing at church and teaching part time in the children’s part of the services. Lately, she has been teaching English language and American culture via video chat to a friend in South Korea who wants to improve on her speaking and understanding. This summer when the rest of us went on vacation, Elizabeth canned green beans and made homemade catsup. She enjoyed spending a few November days in Indiana for a friend’s bridal shower. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Emily, 17, is a senior in high school this year. She got her braces off in March and also took a trip by herself to California to a youth camp. She was so thrilled to get to go to the ocean on this trip. This fall, she got her driver’s license, so now she is able to go by herself wherever she needs to go. Last week, she took a CPR and First Aid class with other homeschoolers. She started back into violin lessons in September and has learned 3rd position and vibrato techniques. She played in a recital last weekend and her teacher says she is progressing very well. Emily continues to learn sign language; she doesn’t know just how the Lord will use that skill in the future. She has participated in Bright Lights Bible Studies all this year and enjoys the fellowship with other young ladies. She has given blood twice and has no difficulty doing that. She continues to take beautiful photographs, even getting to do two senior photo shoots this year, and has sold her photo cards to loyal repeat customers and to many homeschool parents at the Home School Conference in Denver. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Jeffrey, 24, graduated from God’s Bible School in May and went to Fargo, North Dakota to Summer Institute of Linguistics for eight weeks this summer. Since mid-August, he is at home in Iowa where he is housesitting for missionaries in Kenya, and being youth minister at a church nearby. He is teaching Sunday school and youth meetings, and preaching occasionally for the senior pastor. He is continuing his courtship with a precious young lady. He had two online classes to finish his B.A., so those are now complete. We enjoyed having him home for a week in September. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Jason, 20, is halfway through his third year at God’s Bible School. He has enjoyed playing cello in the Symphonic Wind and String Ensemble every year. This is his second year to also sing in a double quartet for the SWSE services. In May, the group went to Grand Cayman to have services, teach students, and do volunteer work in a Christian school there. He has loved all his preaching classes and has gotten many opportunities to preach at a church that uses students regularly. He is dating a precious young lady at GBS. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In February, Janet and Emily started working one day a week for our doctors’ family, cleaning house and doing laundry all day. This keeps us busier, and we have to be more efficient with our school work the other days. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Janet just finished two twin size quilt tops for dear friends’ little girls. Only one other quilt was completed this year. She volunteers for the Historical Society more than she wants to. She also got to be an early election judge for eight days this fall. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Rowen continues to work for Carestream as a microscopist for 24 years now. This month, he has been working 10 hour days and is off on Fridays, (great for the honey-do list). He also volunteers for the Historical Society. He successfully completed his sixth driving school student (Emily). He works hard to keep his blood sugar levels in good limits, but it is not a fun game! Recently, he had cellulitis and phlebitis in his leg, and we realize how important it is to take better care of his extremities. He added on to our front flower mound and put in more flowers this spring, and did a lot of the gardening. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Tim and Brenda are expecting a baby boy in mid-February. Charissa is 4 and loves to videochat with us, sing us songs, and tell us stories. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Randy and Joy keep busy with their four: Quil, 8, Micah, almost 7, Jonathan, 3, and Jewelyn 1½. We are thankful that we get to see them at least every Sunday and sometimes in the week as well. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We enjoyed trips to Iowa and Ohio in May, and Kansas and Missouri in August. We are looking forward to all of our children being home for Christmas and spending time together. We will enjoy having Jeffrey and Jason’s special friends home for Christmas too! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We hope that you each have a Christ-filled Christmas and 2016! Maybe this will be the year when Jesus comes back and we go to be with Him! Be ready! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In August I agreed to make twin quilts for some little friends of mine. Then life got really busy, and they moved away. Since November I have worked on them pretty seriously, and just tonight, finished piecing the second one. Parts of them are exactly alike, and parts are random. I think they will be able to chose one and know which one belongs to whom. Next they will be sent to the quilter. Hopefully I will get them back in February and be able to finish them. They have old fashioned looking girls on some blocks and prayers on other blocks. There are mostly 9-patch blocks, but six special stars on each quilt.</div>

One of Emily's favorite things to do is go up on our roof and take sunset pictures. So after we drug Rebekah all over Greeley Thursday, shopping, it was too late to drive west to get the sunset. So onto the roof went Emily and Rebekah to get this sunset picture! </div>

That evening, we went to a dinner theater production that our cousin Tiffany Desmond as in. Her grandparents, Deane and Carolyn Hulett were out from Missouri for the drama, and ate with us at our table. Tiffany was an older lady in the play, so her hair looked kinda like mine (Janet's). :)<br />

The play was The Foreigner. Tiffany was Betty and she ran a bed and breakfast in Georgia in the 1990s. Her brother, Frog, brought a guest who did not want to talk to anyone, so Frog told Betty that he was a foreigner and did not understand or speak English, and it was classified information where he was from. Because Betty had never been out of her state or county, she was thrilled to have a real, live foreigner staying at her lodge.<br />

Of course, the "foreigner" Charlie (on the couch) understood every word people said, but they didn't know he did, so it made a very funny evening.<br />

The young man on the left below (Ellridge) was mentally challenged, but he undertook to teach Charlie to talk and read English, with astonishing success--so much so that his beautiful sister pictured above, decided to share the family inheritance with him, which made her boyfriend, also pictured above, very angry, since he contrived to make Ellridge look dumb all the time. The boyfriend wanted all the money for the KKK, of which he was secretly a member. Charlie and Ellridge come up with a plan to defeat the KKK's desire to steal Betty's lodge as well as all the money. It was very funny and the kids did an excellent job of acting. The pictures below, Charlie is imitating everything Ellridge did, which gave E the idea of teaching him.<br />

A month or so ago, Rebekah Owens, (niece) called to ask about some items for Operation Christmas Child Shoeboxes. Her church donates over 50 shoeboxes to the ministry, which is part of Samaritan's Purse, giving Christmas gifts to children in poor countries who would otherwise not receive any gifts.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I mentioned that we would be volunteering at the Denver Processing Center on December 2, and would she like to come do it with us? She "happened" to have that week off work (ICU nurse), so she made arrangements and flew out on December 1-4. Rebekah had not been out to Colorado since 2008 (Tim and Brenda's wedding), even though she regularly goes to exotic places like Brazil on missions trips, so we felt SO SPECIAL that she would come and spend time with us! We had a great time with her! Emily played her violin with Rebekah several times</div>

We planned our arrival to be one hour early so we could eat lunch before beginning our four-hour (1-5pm) volunteer shift. These lovely ladies occupied one side of the break table. So happy Joanna could join us, and that Elizabeth was off work so she could come.<br />

New to us this year was this prayer wall. There were many pictures of children to pray for. When you chose someone to pray for, you wrote a prayer on the back and pinned it back up with the prayer showing. The goal is to have all those children, representing many needy children, prayed for before the boxes are all processed.<br />

It's so seldom we get Emily from behind the camera, that I wanted to post this picture of her reading to the nephews. They were all so worried and engrossed in the story line that they didn't notice the picture being taken! :)</div>

Rowen had off the whole Thanksgiving week, and wanted a project to do, so, because some people were really tired of the upstairs bathroom being pink, and not liking the way the pink had gone on those years ago, we decided to repaint it with a different color. After looking at and debating about 49 different colors, we decided on this brown one (Snug as a Bug) that went with the decorative tiles.<br />

Every 18 months, we attend the Wycliffe Associates Banquet in our area. Wycliffe Associates is a support organization for Bible translation. It is always encouraging and challenging to hear how God is working through His servants in the goal of getting the Bible translated into every language!</div>

Our dear friends, Drs. Matt and Cara Brown, and their son Lincoln joined us. This was Lincoln's first WA Banquet, as it was Joanna's also.</div>
