Christmas Performances

Aidan and Ashlynn were both participants in today's Christmas service at Calvary Church. Aidan did an outstanding job of following direction and singing with the rest of his class. Ashlynn distinguished herself in other ways. Thought you might enjoy a short video presentation. In the first video, Aidan is the cute little Bobby Jones look-alike on the left. In the second, Ashlynn is the dancing queen--hard to miss. Just look for the one in her own little world. Enjoy and Merry Christmas from the Virginia Scotts!

The Best Things Happen While You're Dancing

You better not pout, you better not.....Oh, well

As you can tell, Christmas has come to Germany. Luke is a bit upset that his grandparents will not be able to spend Christmas with him. ( At least that is what I suppose, what else could it be?) Someday this picture will come back to haunt him and maybe by then he will have forgiven his parents for this trauma! We hope you are all getting in the Christmas spirit.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Just remembering how we were together with Mom & Dad last year and now they are celebrating in Heaven together this year! We miss them but are thankful for such a wonderful legacy of faith. Judy and I are feeling the absence of three family members around our table today. God has been so faithful to all of us this year even in the midst of our losses. We wish all the Scotts a great day of thanksgiving. Please know that the name of every child, grandchild and great grandchild (the "dear ones") are being lifted up to our Heavenly Father each day. We love you all!

Thinking about Family

I have been thinking about Dad today. It would have been his birthday. What I have been thinking is how much I appreciate each of you and the family nurture that takes place. We are spread apart but I want you to know that you are in my prayers.

Pardon the sentimentality but I am often working with families who do not seem to share the bond that we have. I want to foster it as much as possible.

Thanks

30th Reunion of the Class of 1977 at ENC

We spent last weekend at ENC with our 30th reunion. I don't have pictures of all the people we saw but below is a picture that I was drawn into of Ryan's NazNet buddies, Dennis Scott, Bob Evens, Mike Schutz, Corlis McGee, and me. They wanted me to stand in for Ryan since he wasn't there. (Although I think Corlis was dragged in also.)

We also got to spend time with Philip. Below is a picture of Philip and one of his roommates, Matt Kaufman (son of Don Kaufman)

We also saw a whole lot of little blond kids at Mark's house since David and Angela's families were there as well. Below is Beth holding Christian.

October in the Estes Park

Beth and I spent a day at one of our favorite places, Estes Park, near the beginning of October. We try to get up there a couple of times a year and would be glad to put it on the itinerary when you visit with us. Here are a few pictures.

The Legacy Lives On

Well Scotts, someone has to break the ice and begin to get the Scott Blog rolling again. Dad and Mom made family a priority and so it is up to each one of us to keep in touch. We, Judy and I, have had so many people speak to us about the influence Mom and Dad were to them. We are a blessed family because of what our parents have taught us. I see a new generation of Scotts with beautiful Christian testimonies being lived out in their lives. It was great to see all the cousins interacting and establishing friendships at the funeral.

Life sure is different in Salisbury but we have been well prepared for what is ahead. The trailer is slowly being emptied and I was able to give some of the furniture to a person who desperately needed some help.

It is now time to get this blog moving with all the exciting happenings that are going on in your part of the world! We need to be intentional about getting together and keeping each other informed about our lives.
