Our first Alaskan home

These are pictures of the church that Scott, Wes and I stayed in for a week before we found an apartment. They are pretty funny to look back on now. We now attend the church that first housed us, and have done work to tear apart this building so that it can be rebuilt into the new
sanctuary.

This is where Wes and I slept. It was a nursery that was being converted to an office. The baby nap mat treated me well.

This is our living room, which will be the foyer to the new church.

This is going to be a youth play room equipped with a basketball hoop game, fooseball and a climbing wall. During our stay the walls were painted which wasn't the most enjoyable part of the stay. I put in a lot of time on the hoop shoot game. So much that I almost bought one for our apartment. However, that proved to be a tough purchase to justify.

I'm super thankful to the Anchorage Wesleyan Church that helped us out. They've been so good to us, and continue to bless our team as the year goes on.

Domestication

These are some pictures of the derby pie I baked yesterday. Its the only thing I can ever remember baking in my life, but I think it turned out okay. This operation started because the family I'm having thanksgiving with told me to get the recipe of my favorite dish back home. Derby pie is amazing so I hope I didn't screw it up. I had fun either way.
