Beginning the cottages in Spring 06

It was clear in the beginning of 2006 that this was the spot for the cottages! And the name GateWay GetaWay was the choice (thanks Ellena) as you can see the gateways in the distance as a thunderstorm rolls into the valley.

As the buildings went up, we placed specific scripture into the walls and foundations. We prayed "PEACE" over the locations, and blessings over all who walked into the area.
Jennifer painted the metal "barn" to the South of the entrance from our road. It was clearly God's gift through her eyes and hands into these places God has given us. The "storm" in the mural is a replica of the thunderheads here as they gather to bring RAIN (reign).
In the Fall of 2006, the 1 bedroom is dressed for the holidays as the hills are clothed in their Fall attire as well. What a lovely first holiday season for us and our guests!
The two bedroom sits at the foot of the first hills. We chose colors that blend into the area so that even the animals wouldn't think we were invading, only joining them in the places they loved first.
