Starting September

Starting September simply

Steady steps and sure

Waiting, watching, walking

September thoughts are pure

Great-granddaughter grins

At a walk-athon with friends

Fund-raiser fun and frolicky

Tackling new trends

I’m walking with you in prayer and support

Love,

We just had the privilege of a week with our son here in Ennis, MT. We loved every minute of that precious time together. While the skies were smoky each day (you couldn’t even see the mountains through the smoke), and it didn’t begin to clear until the day he was leaving, we didn’t let that deter us from having a good time.

Yummy time at Dave’s Sushi preceding time at the movies (Odyssey)

Sharing meals together was highlighted by great conversations

The mountains peeked through the smoke and the antelope showed up to say goodbye as we were driving Ty to the airport

We stopped at Fiesta Mexicana for lunch before dropping Ty off at the Gallatin Bozeman airport

Mmm – great margaritas! And delicious food

Ty’s flight was delayed and he had a challenging set of flights and car trouble… but God made sure his needs were met and he was home that night safe & sound.

And our home has seen blue skies since then. Come back soon, Ty. And bring Monika!

We’ll keep you up to date on the progress of the house being built in the field across from us!

We were blessed indeed to have such a blest week!

Love,

Best Local Dish

What’s the best local dish you’ve ever eaten while traveling?

My son-in-law, André Solioz, is a phenomenal chef. When we travel to Switzerland to be with him, our daughter, and their family, his food is to die for!! The local dish is cheese fondue and it’s wonderful. But his specialty that I love is a pork roast. Oh, he creates it in such a mouth-watering way. You’d love it! But, his dishes all are amazing!

Here’s André … We get to see him and eat his wonderful food this October. Yay!

Hugs, JanBeek

Happy 2nd birthday to our pup, Kenny!!

Wonderful Week

We just had the most wonderful week with my cousin and his wife. Adrian & Laura were such fun to have around.

And his wife, Laura, is equally delightful

They are DeAngelis (my maiden name) “of angels” – apropos!!

They visited Great Falls, MT on their way from CA to us and now…

They are spending a week in Yellowstone

We enjoyed the Ennis Rodeo and fabulous July 4 parade

We were privileged to watch the parade from dear friends, Roy & Barbara Washburn’s lovely place. Such gracious, generous people!

After the parade downtown we had our own kiddie parade in our neighborhood.

Adorable children & great neighborhood fun!

Before Adrian & Laura left for Yellowstone, they prepared our last night’s dinner (homemade pasta and bolognese sauce. Delicious!) and we had the neighbors join us.

It was a marvelous culmination to a beautiful week together.

Wish you coulda joined us!

Hugs,

JanBeek

Ninth Inning

Oh my goodness! What a ballgame!

The first 3 innings were exciting … but we trailed the Minnesota team 3-4. No scores in the next 5 1/2 innings. Then, one man on, bottom of the 9th, Pittsburgh home run! The stadium erupted!
