Biking in the Netherlands

Peter and I went for a bike ride when we were there visiting his parents in the Netherlands. It was great to bike again, especially on flat, paved bike paths. We went from Maassluis, where his parents live now, to Hoek van Holland. It was so beautiful, until the storm clouds came and we had to race how to avoid getting drenched! The bike path ran along side the Waterweg, where the Rotterdam port runs. It was fun to see the big ships coming into port. I realized that I really miss the way we traveled when we lived in the Netherlands...by bike!

Molly Kay Huizenga!!!


It is very possible that I have the cutest nieces and nephews! I am not biased at all either...As many of you know and some of you don't, I have a brand new neice, Molly Kay Huizenga, born on January 4, 2007 to my bother Joel and his wife Carmen. She is so cute, and I wish I could see her...Scotland is great, but there is no comparison. You can see that Lydia and Allison are getting bigger and bigger, and now they look huge compared with the new little one...
I have more pictures to share, but will do so a bit at a time as I have been not so good at updating this blog...it has been busy... Peter and I just got back from the Netherlands to see his parents and brother's family. We had a great time and will share more in future blogs.

God is doing big stuff right now. We just had a course called "Getting to the Root of the Problem." We prayed with people on the Saturday night, and it was great to see people make choices to forgive other, and to see how much pain they were then able to let go of...I am learning more and more that when we follow God's word and commands, such as to forgive, we are more and more free. Peter and I feel so blessed that we get to be here to be apart of this, and are trying to be open as God prepares us for what is next...who know what that will be, but oh well....
I hope you are all doing well...luv, peter and liz
