Dreaming ofQuebec

In these hot, 102 degree days we find ourselves dreaming of what life will be like when we get Quebec, Canada to begin our study of French.  After viewing the conditions, let me know if you'd like to join us.

This first one is Rekebah's.  If you look veeerrry close you can see that all 5 of us are camping on the island, while surrounded by snow-capped peaks.  Invigorating!  She did nicely provide us with a boat so we could cross the lake and stay dry. 

Samuel created this masterpiece.  From left to right:  Darin (a little hung up with a tree), Gabby (a snowball), Samuel (a bit concerned about running over Gabby), Holly (apparently having a rockin' day on the ski slope with amazing acrobatics), and Rebekah (preparing to launch from a rock). 

This is mine.  It is sunny, we are obviously warm, with way-cool hats, and we all five fit on the sled.  Well, Darin is flying off the back, but that's to be expected by the dad :]  Notice the large rock in our path.  Just picture this crew launching!

Samuel is really hoping for snow in Quebec.  When he was 8 he told me he wanted to live as close to Canada as he could, so he could have a lot of snow.  Well, get ready son/snow shoveler, cause in the blink of an eye you get your wish.

Gabby, well, she really wanted to use the silver, sparkly paint, and really wanted to paint a dog.  We told her a silver, sparkly dog was a fantastic choice.  Who knows what kind of creatures they have way up North.  I mean a silver-sparkly dog would be a breath-taking sight.

Keep praying for us as God brings us closer to getting to Quebec.  Our hearts grow more burdened each day for the eternity of the Wolof people.  One day we will get to blog from Senegal.  I can't wait.
