First real snow, and first time sledding. It’s beginning to look like Christmas on the Palouse!

Mini island on Paradise Creek + a French Lesson
The kids wanted to show me their little island along Paradise Creek, so I followed them out! We ran into Gammy and Grandaddy, who also got the tour, and we ended with an impromptu French lesson practice session 🙂
Some photos from today:
The River Thief, by N.D. Wilson (starring Joel Courtney) | Review
If you’re familiar with N.D. Wilson’s children’s novels, you know you’re in for a treat with The River Thief, his first feature film.
This film breaks from the typical Christian film by telling a good story first and foremost. A lost, father-hungry boy discovering true love. Not the sappy, romantic love of your typical Hollywood flick (this girl wouldn’t have any of that), but rather the kind of love that creates a longing to live or die for someone else (something new for Diz).
A wonderful family film, although there are some rough scenes. My 7-year-old son was spellbound, and somewhat affected by the rough parts. Yet this is the kind of story that is healthy. The emotion, drama, and violence of this *good* story are like emotional boot camp; it allows a young boy or girl to experience these emotions of grief and fear along with the positive life lesson that a good story provides.
As a resident of the Northwest where this was shot, I also appreciated the cinematography, which was outstanding! Beautiful aerial views in particular.
I highly recommend The River Thief!

Last Disputatio of the Class of 2009!
Can you believe it? We just had our last Disputatio as a class at NSA?
God has been very good to us, allowing us to travel thus far. I am very grateful for such a wonderful class, and I hope we all keep in touch. To that affect, I plan to keep this blog going as a place where we as Alumni can come and keep getting NSA info, or see what’s going on in Moscow.
Here are the two videos I presented at Disputatio.
- The first is a slideshow of some photos I through together of our 4 years here. It is only a tiny sampler of all the photos I have!
- The second is a compilation of spliced videos from our 4 years. Again, only a sampler of what I have! I had to cut some GREAT stuff! (such as some of our declamations).
I uploaded a bunch of videos not shown here on a YouTube playlist called “Live in Moscow as an NSA student,” which you can find HERE
Enjoy!
