It has been quite a year for us, as the 377 posts on our blog can attest.  On December 31st last year we were in San Antonio, Texas wondering where we would be in December 2013. Little did we know that it would be in Montana!!!

Highlights from 2013 include:
January - a weekend trip to Dallas to help friends, Joan & Jen, with much-needed home repairs & tasks.
February - A "quiet" month with work at the VA (Charles) and visits with her mother in San Angelo (Belinda).
March - It was Holy Week in San Antonio and we observed it by attending nine worship services!!!
April - A trip to Montana to explore ministry with the Yellowstone Conference.  
May - A weekend in San Angelo highlighted May as we celebrated Belinda's mother's birthday and Cinco de Mayo.  Charles finished his year at the VA hospital to wrap-up the month.
June - Our move to Montana was the hands-down choice for this month's high point!!!
July - We begin our ministry with the Stevensville UMC.  Helping to make the hundreds of apple dumplings at the end of the month!
August - What else can one say about August except the Creamery Days picnic in Stevensville!!!
September - Belinda returned to the working world with her new job at the Rocky Mountain Labs in Hamilton.  First snowfall on the Bitterroot Mountains was on September 19th.
October - Belinda joined many other Federal workers on furlough for part of the month.
November - The church bazaar and our sixteenth anniversary made this month special for us.
December - Belinda's mother arrived for a visit, our first Christmas at Stevensville UMC, and snow!!!
