Baby it's cold outside!

If you have not yet seen the music video entitled, "Baby It's Cold Outside" by Idina Menzel (the singer who sang 'Let It Go' on the Disney movie 'Frozen') and Michael Buble, it is SUPER cute and I highly recommend it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bbuBubZ1yE.

It's always interesting to me to see different people's perspectives on things. For example, I had one San Diego friend who posted on his Facebook page "Baby it's cold outside"......... it was 47 degrees this morning (which, I confess, IS cold for San Diego). Today, here in Idaho, 41 degrees is supposed to be our high for the day and we might as well be outside in our shorts and tank tops! 41 degrees means the ice that we've been sliding around on as we drive will melt a bit; 41 degrees means the snow will start to melt a bit too and we'll remember that we have grass in our backyard; 41 degrees means we can leave our enormous down jackets in the closet and pull out something that makes us look a little less like the Michelin Tire Man as we waddle down the street.







On November 14th and 15th, the Boise area received 7 3/4 inches of snow; that's the most snow in a 2 day period since 1892! But speaking of keeping things in perspective, I'm thankful that I don't live in Buffalo, NY right now....

We will enjoy Thanksgiving  with dear friends here in Idaho and I'm sure there will be plenty of outings and sleeping in the tent in the living room since Rodney has a long four day weekend. May you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving; we have much to be thankful for and are blessed far beyond what we deserve!

Psalm 100:4 "Enter His gates with Thanksgiving and His courts with Praise......."

Love, Tammi for Rodney, Justice and Jaycee

HERE IT IS!

Well, we finally did it! We started a blog to keep people up-to-date on our lives both here and overseas (when we eventually get there). We can share pictures and tell people what is going on by posting our information on the blog. This means no more mass e-mails :) People can subscribe to the blog and then everytime we post something, it will be sent to you automatically as an e-mail (at least, that's the idea, if we can figure it out). We hope this works as a good communication network to stay in touch with people. There is also a way for you to post comments on our blog.

ITS A BOY!

Tammi Lynne and Rodney Kent Dyrud had a baby boy last night Sun Sept 28,2008 at 11:46pm. His name is Justice Kent Dyrud; he is 8 lbs, 20 1/2 inches long and so far the health baby we (Tammi and I) have been praying for. Thank you for all of your prayers. Here is one of his first pictures. I am currently working on getting a video posted.

Spring/summer has arrived!

My first drink out of a big boy cup at almost 20 months old My first goatee..................... well, more like chocolate ice cream :) Today is our last holiday before the end of school. It has been in the 80s this weekend so we've started (finally!) putting away our scarves and hats and mittens and pulling out our shorts and tank tops. On Friday we went on a field trip to downtown Sherbrooke. We did a scavenger hunt where we had to ask people on the street (in French of course) to give us directions to certain buildings in the city. We were in five different teams and each team had different questions. Then we all got together at the end of the morning and shared our results; it was fun :-) We are also in the process of planning our trip back across the US at the end of June. We hope to see many family members and friends on our way back to California.
