My FIRST Blog Post- An Introduction


MONDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2008

Being over 40, and not of the "blogging generation", I thought I'd give it all a try. Let me introduce myself... I am married to The Water Guy, and have 5 WONDERFUL kids. We live on the Central Asian Steppe and live a pretty simple life as we do our development work. I can't think of too many kids- at least in the States who: regularly drink fermented horse's and camel's milk, know how to fluently speak another language, have eaten in a yurt, or have travelled to no less than 10 countries in their lives.

My passions are quilting, watching great classic movies, enjoying a good cup of coffee every day, spending time in Scripture with my good coffee, playing Settlers, listening to my daughters play guitar, and sleeping in on Saturdays. In summer, I grow a garden, have regular campfires with my family, and watch the stars with our telescope. In winter, I make hot cocoa, read a lot, and quilt more.

I am challenged by trying to cook good meals with the limited ingredients available here. I love everything about Thai food, homemade Mexican food and a good Margarita. I am also challenged as I try to keep up with my 4 students still at home homeschooling. I learn something new everyday, and that keeps me on my toes. My live is very full- I wouldn't change a thing!
