Our Soldiers

I am in the military prayer band here at school, we are a group of about 40 that get together once a week and pray for specific men and women in our military. I wanted to remind everyone to pray for them especially this holiday season as they are away from their loved ones. This picture by Norman Rockwell shows the loneliness that they experiance.

here is a quote by Tony Blair that was emailed to me today,

we should remember England 's Prime Minister Tony Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked by one of his Parliament members why he believes so much in America , he said:

"A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in... And how many want out." Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:

1. Jesus Christ

2. The American G. I.

One died for your soul, the other for your freedom."

Don't forget this Christmas season!!

Wagner Family Times

Sweet Sisters!!

I thank God that I have such a supportive family. Here are just a few pics from the weekend, it is so hard to capture the best moments on film. The guys went out hunting everyday and us girls took walks.=D We also played games in the evenings. Eric is pretty good at connect four.=P

Eric likes to think that he can help in the kitchen, here he is "mixing" rolls. Looks like he is really excited about what he sees.=P

Thanksgiving friends

We waited so long for this break. God was so good in giving us wonderful weather to be out doors, taking walks and canoeing. ( I have never seen Piatt Lk so calm, there wasn't a breath of wind, it was just like glass.)
I was so glad that Sarah and Jeni were able to come with me especially since it will be their last year here at school. We got lots of sleep and had some great fellowship.=D

(isn't sarah's dimple cute? =P)

"Stick 'em up cowboy!"

Here is our little "Roy Rogers" He is now 6 years old!! He got these duds for his b-day, right down to the spurs on his boots and his marshall badge.=D

Dreisbach skating activity

Last night we had a society skating activity, it was a blast, a good number of kids showed up.This is SaraJo and I next at the end. Pretty cool huh??

The "Greek family's" first outing

Well it's been another week, and I've been to another hockey game!! here is a pic of the whole team together, Nate is in the far back center.
These are my awsome roomies!! Sara Jo and Mel. We went with our greek teacher and his wife. What a blast!! It is soooo enocouraging to have teachers that want to help you and be a part of your life.
Here is the "Greek Family" =D after the game last night. It is Sarah Jo, me, Mrs. Boss, Mr. Keith Boss, and Mel. We told the Boss' that we adopted them, and they are now our family.=P
