Christmas letter 2017
Dear friends
and family,
I
hope everyone had a wonderful and blessed 2017! Ours was very busy and a bit
stressful, but God has been faithful and carried us through it.
As
a family, things we enjoy would include rides in Sam’s truck down country
roads, going out for picnics at the park, going out for ice cream at Braum’s,
road trips, hanging out at the Fire Station fixing trucks or watching football
games, piling on the bed and watching a movie or reading books, and so many
other things I can’t think of. Pretty much anything is fun if we can do
together!
Sam
still works at L-3 in Greenville, and as of this October is the Chief on the
Campbell Volunteer Fire Department. He has been able to do several training
classes this year, the most memorable being when they got to burn a whole house
down with the Cash Fire Department. He has spent countless hours fixing the
brush trucks and he also spend several weeks switching his own truck from a
single axle regular bed to a dually flat bed.
Esther
still works doing book keeping for Windy Meadows and has also started helping do
the books for a ministry called Minority Care International. Check them out,
they do a great work in the Philippines working with college students. And of course, keeping up with the house and
three kiddos keeps me on my toes. 😊
Emma
will be turning 4 in March, and her favorite things to do include playing with
her friends, looking at books, drawing, playing outside and helping Mommy with
pretty much whatever I’m doing.
Corrie
is 2 ½ and has really turned from a toddler to a little girl this year. She is
a busy little bee and has to do everything Emma and Mommy does. She loves
drawing and playing outside, as well as looking at books and taking good care
of her doll.
James
will be 1 on Jan 9th and is definitely an eager beaver! Crawling at
5 months, pulling up at 6, and walking at 10, he keeps us on our toes, but is
always smiling and laughing and is a real joy! He loves chewing on whatever he
can get his hands on, climbing on everything, and is enjoying experimenting
with ‘grown up’ food.
We
love each and every one of you and hope you all have a wonderful Christmas
season and a very blessed and happy 2018!!!
Lots of Love,
Samuel,
Esther, Emma, Corrie and James Schatte

God, which passeth all understanding,
