Reflections of 2012

Can't believe that 2013 is almost here.  Have been thinking off and on today about this past year.  The plans we had, the events that happened that we had no clue were going to happen, watching how God continued to provide for us, wondering what was going to happen next and through it all continuing to trust Our Lord Jesus Christ.

The High's and Low's of 2012

January ~ 
Ringing in the New Year with friends at the Lone Star Corral
Attending a couple of RV Shows ~ always fun to dream

February ~ 
Dealing with new bosses
Enjoying the beautiful Hill Country of Texas

March ~ 
A long awaited trip home to meet our youngest grandson, Treyson
Seeing friends
Lots of shared hugs & kisses with our boys and their families

April ~ 
Losing our jobs at Lone Star Corral ~ just wondering what the heck happened and what happened to open and honest communication between a boss or in our cases bosses
Seeking God and asking for clarity on what to do
A new job opportunity in Branson, MO

May ~ 
 Watching God open doors and providing in ways we could never imagine

June ~ 
Meeting lots of new people
Enjoying the perks of working in Branson
Grand Country Shows, Silver Dollar City, Neil Mccoy

July ~
Seeing the beauty in God's country
Finding out we were going to be grandparents again!

Working hard and having fun running the campground

September ~
Watching Amish children playing in the school yard
Attending our first ever Amish Produce Auction
(can't wait to go again in the Spring)

October ~ 
Getting involved with a local church
Being a part of a great ladies fellowship group (Ali)
Seeing answered prayer ~ all the funds for a new artificial eye for Ali

November ~
Seeing God work miracles and His hand on our children's lives
Learning to trust a little bit more

December ~
Trusting the Lord to provide for our needs
Finding out the last Friday of the month that we have jobs for 2013!
Enjoying the fellowship of other believers as we celebrate the reason for the season.
Enjoying many of the Christmas shows here in Branson
Celebrating 37 years of marriage!!!
Welcoming the newest member of our family ~ Alexander Victor Aren Workentin
And relishing over and over in the love, support and prayers of our
family and friends!!!

Eagerly anticipating seeing what the Lord has in his plans for us in 2013!
Claiming his promise as shared in 

Jeremiah 29:11-13
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

Happy New Year to all our friends & family!!!
