So here we are again. Lots of time has gone by. I'm so bad at filling you all in on our lives. There has been a lot that has happened in the Hofer's life. Where should we begin? Our Senior pastor at Linwood Wesleyan has resigned and will be leaving in July. We have to resign as well since we are on staff. What does this mean for us? We have no idea. If you do, please let us know. We are looking at all our options right now and hope to make a decision on whether to stay or go in the next few weeks.
Alex turns 5 next week. What????? I can't believe it's been that long since we lived in the deep south. I miss it. Maybe that is just the bitterness in my heart for the snow right now. Tym turns 8 next month and he is turning into such a great young man. Wow. Mom and dad you will appreciate this one...Tym asked Mike, "Why do we have to go shopping again, dad? All it does is waste time and take your money." Mike says "Do you have pants on and shoes on your feet?" Tym said "I NEEDED these. U don't NEED 2 go shopping do u?" He is sooooooo DUTCH, just like me.
So, I am working on my graduate credits for teacher certification and also studying for the next Praxis test that I have to pass. We are almost there, I can taste it.
Keep praying for us please. We need guidance and shown our door to walk through soon.

Let it STOP Snowing!!!
Wow look at all this snow that we have. We don't know what to do with ourselves at this moment. Mike is in California thawing out and we are freezing our tooshies off. The kids and I again have no school. This is a miracle that we don't have to go since Sioux Falls never closes school. Although we are thankful that we don't have to go out in the -30 or so windchill temperature.
These pics are of our side door which we just got shoveled out this past weekend from the last blizzard. It's actually taller than that right now due to the wind. It has grown by the hour.
This is from inside that door you just saw above.
This is the really big pile of snow outside of our window from the driveways of our neighbors. Since we live in the end unit we get all the access snow. The plows don't know where to put it all now so we may have a bigger pile to post for you later.
This is that drift from the kitchen window. Pretty cool right? I don't think so. I would go shovel it out but I'm afraid I will lose my fingers, toes and nose.
Mike and I are already praying if this was the right move for us. We know that God is laughing right now but I believe there is a lesson in all this. We love the southland so much now that we can't feel the warm air. Where does this lead us?????? Who knows. ALASKA? We would be good at it...just kidding.

We hope this post finds you all warm and snuggled in your beds. Pray for us when you get a chance. Pray that we will keep our sense of humor and that we will continue to seek what God has for us in this tundra of a place.
