Dance Party

Just looking for the address to get directions to the house when I stumbled over this:

o Deck/Patio
(2) : Two full 40 Ft outdoor decks with views of mountains and ski slopes, both
decks come with outdoor stereo speakers, you can have a dance party!

Bring your dancing shoes!

David and Fred

Now that looks more like it!

Games!

One More Matter of Upmost Importance

David thinks he is best friends with Fred already, so we better stop by for at least one visit!

Mountain Bikes

I am up for montain bikes, but would enjoy about anything. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Preview

Just wanted to give everyone a preview of next week

Call to Worship

We will be on the mountain for 2 Sundays and will likely have a time of family worship.

So I'm looking for a couple of volunteers each Sunday -

• to teach a devotional or lesson


• to lead in singing - now that we have some musicians in the family :-)

Thanks - and God bless.

mountain biking!

WE ALL definitely want to do mountain biking IF all of the bikes have brakes. We were thinking it would be fun if we could get everyone off the ski slopes and set up EXTREME mountain biking DEADLY SCARY TRAILS OF DOOM!!! We are going to get SO EXTREME!!!

Vacation 'stache

Attention everyone:

I will be growing a glorious vacation mustache and I invite you all to join me. As a Hohulin male, my mustache may not be the best or the biggest, but I will wear it proudly all the same, and I hope you will all join me in this.

My beautiful fiance has already shared her disgust with this and I believe she will be offering Tyler money to shave off my vacation mustache while I am sleeping, but I will not let this deter me! Great men with great ideas have always faced opposition and oppresion, but in the words of the famous mariner John Paul Jones "Never give up! Never surrender!" and in the words of the great leader Winston Churchill "Speak softly, and grow a big mustache!"
