Wow! I have not posted in a year! Face book has taken over my blog time. It has been a huge year of change at the Beacom's Jerry lost his job in Sept and he was unemployed for 4 months. He has recently started a entry level job at Medline and is working evenings for the State Farm office here in town. We are still not sure how we will survive on the new much lower income but God has been SO faithful in taking care of us and we continue to trust in His provision.

The kids are keeping us busy as always. Lots of band competitions, recitals and concerts. Molly bought her own ski pass again this winter and is sad to see spring peeking around the corner. I on the other hand I can not wait for grass and flowers! It has been a long winter.

The women's CRW was the last weekend of Feb. It was the most amazing weekend! God was present and active the whole time! I can not wait for the mens weekend coming up.

Home school is going wel lthis year...Molly is in algebra and so far I can keep up. Now sure about next year though. :-) ITBS testing will be this Friday and next Friday. I am always nervous for this but the kids are pretty relaxed. They always do well so I'm not sure why I am concerned. Guess I'm just worried I might fail as a teacher.

Well...I'd better get back to that "teaching" stuff. Maybe I'll post before a year is up next time. :-)
