Vacation, School, House..etc




 Sure am having trouble formating so will go with it and hope the type fills in the gaps. My computer is also on the fritz. We had a great time in Glacier - note all the beautiful photos. We had a nice time at Steve and Nancy's wedding. We are doing well most days, but there is definitely a lot of female hormone going around. Someone is always gossiping, complaining, lying, crying, sassing, from the female side of things. And from the male side, there is mostly complaining and sometimes your general physical contact. I have to say lately I trust few and fear more, but am hoping for a better future. I have chosen to serve HIM, and try to not let it get me down. Some say they are sorry but dip into the same behavior. I need to stop taking it personally. Chris and I are well, but have a lot to do to finish up the sale of the house. Kids are going to VBS, then hockey starts, then I hope to have them in another VBS. Football starts Aug 8. Natasha had a nice sleep over birthday party after Glacier.

 
We have the tally's in for homeschool, 6 for home and 1 for school. We'll be doing the same curriculum for Jonathan, Natasha & Sophia except for Math, the same for James & Andre, and Jaclyn's on her own for a lot of subjects, mostly highschool level. She's finishing up biology and half of Algebra I this summer. Katya will attend Mahtomedi High School. Many will gossip about our choice, please pray instead and please keep your comments to yourself.


We'll be hunkering down in August around sports, to finish up the sale of our home, and finished getting settled. We appreciate your love and good will towards us and your conversation, and encouragement. Chris and I have days that get long and hard and knowing that you're out there is a great encouragement to both of us.

Please stop by any time to visit. We love visitors and it breaks up our days. We appreciate all of you and your help with our move and sale of our home. Love Alesia & Chris 


Katya and Jaclyn are looking more and more like sisters every day. 

A peacock visited our last camping spot at a KOA. HA! 
 Sure was beautiful!
 


The scenery and time together as a family.

Pray for those who persecute you....

Matt 5:11 "Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven...."

Matt 5:44" But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of the Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.


Psalm 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear.....

Phil 4:5-9 Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy - meditate on these things.


2nd Timothy 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

We adopted 4 older siblings from Ukraine in 2010 and hope we can help.

We will share what we learn and help you when we can. There are great supports here on this page. Sometimes it's one day, moment and breath at a time. And you're not alone. Love, Alesia & Chris
