Before our week 2 was over, Matthew & Tatiana tried to find a family to host us during our 3rd week (on the south side of Seattle). The very last day, John, the even manager at Sea-Tec Marriott offered us a room at the hotel. We had no idea we would have a royal treatment (with chocolate covered strawberries waiting for us!!!)

This is John, whose family came from Croatia. He is a generous man with a beautiful family.

Thank you, so much for this treat, John!

March 11th - Concert at St. Philomena's Church in Desmoines, WA. Janel really liked this art piece.

It was at this concert that we met a very special little girl Gloria. I heard her singing along as I prayed "Were You There When They Crucified My Lord". Her voice was pure, innocent and filled with faith. Later, I found out that Gloria is praying for healing from cancer. Her faith and her beauty will forever change our lives. I pray for Gloria every day and hope you will too.

The next day we drove out to Enumclaw. This is the view of Mt. Reineir on the way to Enumclaw.

It was a beautiful, sunny day and we gave thanks to God for our health, our friends and our lives.
